Reeducation Camp ?
If someone publicly calls you a racist, can you sue them for defamation of character?
Just a thought...
Brave guy. I hope he doesn’t lose his job, but frankly, if he has to submit to this crud to keep it, it’s not worth it. Nothing is.
Maybe a private university is the only chance.
I read this the other day and gotta give the youngster kudos for standing up for what he believes. Sadly too many of the kids today have been so indoctrinated with this crap that they readily accept it. Or the go along to get along and don’t have the backbone this youngster did. God bless him.
I can’t answer your question directly. But, I have some anecdotal information from a relative who did his undergrad at UWisc and grad work somewhere else.
He wasn’t surprised to hear that this class existed in a soft science at UWisc, but his impression was that science grad programs were relatively less affected by PC concerns, at least from the indoctrination standpoint.
This brave fellow can expect an audit in the near future. How dare he speak his opinion. /s
I know you people are intimidated of that book learnin’ stuff, but this sort of thing goes on only in two or three far-left schools in the north.
I’ve never run across it as a student or a teacher.

//it’ll get you a job that pays more than minimum wage!!!
I would love to see the reply to this, if one is ever forthcoming.
The History Department of the University of Wisconsin-Madison has been a hotbed of progressivism and radicalism for well over a century—the home of Frederick Jackson Turner, Charles Beard and William Appleman Williams. It’s great to see that someone there is willing to swim against the tide.
I hope many stand up with him but ..................
I stood up in my church for similar crap and not a man stood with me.
What did you expect from the Un. of Wisconsin? It has been marxist-central since the 60’s with no hope for change in sight.
I do hope the Governor reads this email. Then let the shit hit the fan.
As Alan Kors said long ago about the word “faciliator”. “When you hear that word, hide your children, dear parents.”
I’ve told my FRiends here about the time when I, my best friend in graduate school, and one of his professors attended a “racism awareness workshop” (a voluntary version of the mandatory nonsense Mr. Morgan is decrying) for the purpose of causing trouble in a genteel sort of way. I seem to have been most effective, since the unter-dean who was running the thing had to rescue my “facilitator”, who was at a loss how to deal with my assertion the by-and-large racism is dead in America, and what prejudice remains is cultural, and is often rational. By the end all of us were discussing culture not race, so I felt I had won the day. It wasn’t all that long afterward that anti-racism in the U.S. started using the word “multiculturalism” which had before that been a purely Canadian notion. I’ve always wondered whether that started first at Penn and whether I inadvertently cause it.
If actually true, the professor making that statement is, by definition, racist by lumping everyone into the same category without even knowing them. The leftists ALWAYS accuse those trying to follow moral law of things the leftists themselves are doing. Liberalism is de facto RANK HYPOCRISY and those not following it should be beaten until they decide to accept it.
Yes, there are. To find one, check out the Intercollegiate Studies Institute website. You should also consult their print publication Choosing the Right College, which can be purchased at the website. This is a thick publication that reviews hundreds of colleges and universities and provides information on such things as the political climate on campus. Use the Worldcat database to find it in a public library near you.
A splendid letter written by a splendid young man. He is to be congratulated for his forthrightness and willingness to share his brilliant politically incorrect insights with his superiors and the world.
I'm in his corner - big time!
And Jason, whatever the roads you travel from here on in, may the Grace of God be with you in all your endeavors.
