Social Justice Factories
From Lance Sjogren
Prominent intellectual Peter Boghossian resigns his faculty position at Portland
State University because it no longer is a place of intellectual
inquiry.
Portland State, along with most institutions of higher
education in the United States, has become nothing more than a church
for a fundamentalist religious cult.

I was just going to post that -- you beat me to it. It's heartening to see pushback from professors. Of course, it will take a trainload of them protesting to get anything done, but at least this is a start.

Yeah; at least a few are still resisting assimilation into the Borg Collective.
But don't hold out too much hope.

I'm holding out hope that more and more American parents will refuse to pony up huge sums of money to send their kids to these indoctrination mills. And there does seem to be positive news on that front.

I sure hope so. They are making it harder and harder to get a job without a college degree though. College is like having a high school diploma used to be. Not better educated but minimally educated.

There are still decent colleges out there, where one can avoid indoctrination. Hillsdale's not the only one. And one can choose to avoid the liberal arts major and pick something like engineering.
