[quote=Anonymous]Gender studies and "ethnic studies" (and the like) have been around since I was in college in the early 90s. Not sure why Ron has decided that they now need to be eliminated. I, myself, too ethnic studies and it was a required course (I had the choice of several different related classes to choose from).

While I can't say I felt it contributed to my overall knowledge, it didn't hurt either. There were some good discussions, even back then, and helped my critical thinking via the writings we did.

This was in Ohio, btw, hardly some liberal bastion.

The only reason -THE ONLY REASON- he is doing this is to whip people into a frenzy over nothing. Zero. Zip. Nada. He's made a non-issue, an issue. And wasting everyone's time.

This is the first step to facism, btw. Colleges should be open to all thought (even the ones I disagree with) and taught openly. The fact this is even being considered is highly objectionable and concerning. Not because some employer will/won't want to hire the kid coming from a school that eliminates these classes -they won't- but because of the path this sets us on. This is not elementary school with young kids in it. It's college. And absolutely should not be meddling in or dictating what they teach in this matter.

Shame on anyone who support this. [/quote]
