[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hatchet job poster here. Oberlin.[/quote] Well that's certainly crunchy! I don't see a clear solution though. What are you asking for here? Some colleges do still have a core where everyone reads Plato, Virgil and the like. But I can't see a federal mandate that all college kids must read Plato and Virgil. Democracy and choice are great things, right? The best you can do is insist your own kid attend Columbia (has a common core) but not Oberlin, or if he goes to Oberlin you need to approve his course list. But don't expect the govt or academia to stand in for this parental guidance.[/quote]
