College that won't inundate my kids with white guilt?

[Anonymous]

It cracks me up that everyone is advising to go to religious schools.. Most catholic schools have this whole social justice line of BS that it is just as bad as a liberal campus. I think the OP is asking for colleges where ALL ideas are welcomed and open debate is encouraged ( not just liberal debate but a true exchange of ideas).. Sorry OP just completed the college search with DD .. Can't even name one. Good luck- seriously I hope you can find one.. We didnt

UVA?

OP, go to school outside of the USA, maybe somewhere in south or eastern Europe.

Or if you want to cast the net a little broader, maybe any member of the SEC.

Your ignorance and personal biases are showing here. I've had family members attend Harvard and SEC universities, and what you've written is not true.

I'm not wondering. Not all, but many DCUM posters make dismissive comments that reveal their own lack of knowledge and prejudiced viewpoints regarding southern, midwestern, and/or religious schools and the people who attend them. In some cases, the criticism is warranted. Entirely too often, the negativity is absurdly ignorant.

DC’s private high school does this to him already, so he should be used to it by college.
I’d say to avoid this as best you can, have the kid go into STEM or Engineering.
Avoid the LAC’s.

It's been some time since I went to college. I don't know what you're talking about. Could you elaborate? If you know this is happening, why don't you know on which campuses it's happening too?

I think this happens much earlier than college in this area. I have a friend that just finished a masters in education at UMBC (in order to teach high school) and the white guilt thing was part of her curriculum to then indoctrinate/pass on to her future students.

I tell my kid to just play along. tell them you feel so much guilt some nights you can’t sleep; you’re just inconsolable over the injustices done by the white man.
He’s pretty good at this. If that’s what they want to hear, fine.

Ever read the book, "How to Lie with Statistics?"

I would send your child for a semester abroad to Asia or another part of the developing world. It will be quite instructive for them to see how terribly non-Whites can treat other non-Whites. Especially those with darker skin tones or from lower socio-economic backgrounds.

Will put the left-wing propaganda into perspective somewhat. They will sleep better at night knowing that others share their evil oppressive tendencies.

Looks like most fell into the trap of this poster who sounds suspiciously like a poster on the political forum who starts out with the 'I'm a liberal but...' and turns out the poster is really an ultra-conservative. The whole purpose is to cause dissension and mockery.

I mean Ivies and a level below. I feel like the college cultural pendulum has swung so hard to the left. Even Chris Rock says he doesn't do college tours because college audiences are so intolerant! (In the name of tolerance, of course).

Why are you REALLY here in this forum?

It's ok. Most of us went through four years of hearing about how awful this country is, how pathetically bourgeois our existences are, and how victimization of "the other" happens every second. Some of it was, perhaps, instructive. But then most everyone here moves on, becomes a capitalistic tool, talks endlessly about status, and fixates on private schools and how to ensure that their snowflake can talk about inequality from a position of great privilege. A strange cycle.

Today's college student while sometimes engaged in political issues, is more likely apathetic and certainly not guilt ridden. Those I've taught who are motivated by ideas of social change are, by contrast, generally happy and sometimes even more entitled and proud of themselves.
Honestly higher ed is depressing these days but not because you spend 50k and we make your kids feel badly about their skin color.

OP here. Thanks for the first reasonable response.


For the other nasty posters, we're not Christian, so Christian schools would probably be a bad fit. We have no problem with interracial and interethnic relationships. I realize on DCUM if you don't buy into the most extreme liberal orthodoxy that makes you a neo-Nazi, but the reality is many campuses have become very intolerant to viewpoints that don't align with basically, Jezebel and Huff Po.

Kind of like DCUM.

Don't forget to add "misogynist" and "rape apologist" as other labels the SJWs/self-righteous like to bandy about.

I think William & Mary would fit what you are looking for.
