OSU Health Course Requires Students to Address ‘White,’ ‘Heterosexual’ Privileges
Breitbart ^ | 12/07/2023 | ALANA MASTRANGELO

A class at Ohio State University (OSU) is reportedly making its students address their so-called “whiteness,” as well as explain what the term “white” means, and how they “navigate race” in their daily lives.

The course requires students to take part in discussions and assignments about gender and race, including one task that involves addressing their so-called “privileges” if they are white, heterosexual, or able-bodied, according to documents obtained by Fox News.

The class, titled, “Individual Differences in Patient/Client Populations,” is offered through OSU’s School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences.

One required assignment, called “Unpack the Invisible Knapsack,” demands that students complete a series of “activities” about their “privilege.”

For this assignment, students were asked to choose from three activities: the “White Privilege Knapsack,” the “Heterosexual Privilege Knapsack,” and the “Able-Bodied Privilege Knapsack.”

Are nurses still required to wear white and are lab coats and physicians coats still white?

My White Privilege doesn’t allow me to give a damn about non white minorities. I don’t care if they all die in the street from being stupid or lazy. It also prevents me from having anything to do with non white minorities that are not already my friends, I will NOT shop or patronize ANY establishment owned or operated by a non white minority. I will never extend a helping hand to one either.

You wanted White Privilege, YOU GOT IT NOW!!!

This is a hostile work environment for white people.

I’d just flunk out on purpose.
And parents shell out thousands of dollars so little Johnny or little Susie can “experience and learn” this useless BS.
I’d just go to a trade school and learn to weld, or become an HVAC tech or an electrician. It’d be something a lot more constructive that I could maybe make a buck at.

I’d take the “White Privilege Knapsack”...and have a LOT of fun with it! Some things are worth an F” - and then would come the lawsuit against the university!

I’d like to do a Will Smith on anyone who claims “heterosexual privilege”.

Exactly! Ever since Obeyme was selected as president in 2008, race relations have been set back about 500 years with his emphasis on revenge!

"OSU Health Course Requires Students to Address ‘White,’ ‘Heterosexual’ Privileges'

Students should not be forced to squander their precious tuition funds on classes detrimental to their career objectives.

“I do not possess a victim mentality, therefore I do not expect people to just hand me things in life. I can do work that people are willing to pay me for because I enjoy being productive and having a purpose in life. As I am not insane, my fully functioning cerebral cortex is valued higher to prospective employers and business partners.

This is the only ‘privilege’ I have and I refuse to apologize for it.”

Since this knapsack activity is racist, I’d be tempted to bring my own knapsack.

Not the same source, different title, and different article, so not a "repeat" post. Just thought it was worth noting along with the comments on that thread...

Diversity is our strength and you’ll become weak,,,,

“The Bell Curve” was truth, and Scott Adams is right.

If I owned a company, I would go out of my way NOT to hire a college graduate unless he or she majored in engineering, computer science, business admin. or something other than ethnic studies or other BS (bullsh*t) degrees.

I like trade school for people who want to be welders, electricians, etc. For people who want to be engineers and back-end data programmers (people who need college), I say go to another college, particularly if this course is required even for a computer science degree.

Ask people already in whatever field you want to go into what kind of training is good to get there. Ask their managers too, since they making the hiring and promotion decisions. They know what training is valuable in that field. If they say it's college then ask them what kind of degrees and what college/universities are good at it. Don't take the college advisors' word that their school is good -- they have to sell their product. Ask the people you want to one day impress enough to hire you what college or voc training brings actual value.

I doubt very seriously they'll tell you to take a bunch of courses specializing in hating all white males who aren't ashamed of their gonads.

Seems to me the privilege belongs to members of groups in the US who enjoy opportunities and living standards enjoyed by very few in the nations where their groups are the majority.

Like Mohammed Ali said after fighting George Foreman in Zaire (Congo), answering a reporter concerning what he thought of Africa: “Thought God my granddaddy got on that boat”.

And millions more non—whites are pouring across Brandon’s open border in hopes of living in this land of insufferable white privilege.
