Campus Reform ^ | 12/26/17 | Toni Airaksinen

The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) recently debuted a new dorm that promises to be a “safe, supportive living-environment” for students interested in promoting “social justice issues.”

The new Social Justice House, which is now accepting applications for the 2018-2019 academic year, “will be a community of unique and multi-faceted students from a variety of backgrounds, united into a singular voice of social activism and equality.”

"The House will seek to grapple with present day issues while providing students a safe, supportive living environment designed to help them grow and further their ambition." Tweet This

This “singular voice” of social activism will be developed among students throughout the semester during required reading assignments, participation in “advocacy opportunities,” and a group field trip to a “social justice related” site.

“The house will ultimately attempt to push the College’s mission of being ‘an institution comprised of a diverse community of learners, dedicated to free inquiry and open exchange’ to a new level,” states the school’s web-page for the house.

The key word in all that mush is ‘singular’. Only one viewpoint will be allowed. Only one viewpoint will be tolerated.

“The house will ultimately attempt to push the College’s mission of being ‘an institution comprised of a diverse community of learners, dedicated to free inquiry and open exchange’ to a new level,”

Somehow I doubt this.

“The key word in all that mush is ‘singular’. Only one viewpoint will be allowed. Only one viewpoint will be tolerated.”

And...

“This “singular voice” of social activism will be developed among students throughout the semester during required reading assignments, participation in “advocacy opportunities,” and a group field trip to a “social justice related” site.’

But...

“The house will ultimately attempt to push the College’s mission of being ‘an institution comprised of a diverse community of learners, dedicated to free inquiry and open exchange’ to a new level,” states the school’s web-page for the house.”

Who writes this inconsistent and incomprehensible pile of crap. Do they even realize how little sense they make?
