You guys crack me up. Half of you that are so sure indoctrination is happening have surely not stepped foot in a classroom at UW. Is there goofy poop going on in some classes and with some professors? Duh…it’s been that way for about forever. Did you watch Oppenheimer? Last time I checked there wasn’t a bunch openly communist professors at UW like there were back in the 30s all across the country. Btw, I’m an R, not that that makes any difference. I got a science degree, so no, there wasn’t a lot of indoctrination going on there. My wife, who got her MBA, got constantly pushed towards working in Oil and Gas, however, even though she didn’t want to do that. You can sure bet the legislature won’t concern themselves with that though. Just like they wouldn’t care if the University was indoctrinating students with the ideology of their choice. As a whole, the idea that UW is indoctrinating students one way or the other is just dumb. It needs no help from the legislature, and as I’ve said I don’t trust this legislature whatsoever. They want to regulate delta 8 for crying out loud, talk about the nanny state.
The only I see that’s changed in this whole University scenario is a bunch of chicken little politicians that are so scared of everything they think they need to step in, act like the big government they claim to hate, and regulate what can and can’t be taught. And a bunch of people that follow their drum beat, much like a certain mascot from the South
I’m guessing ExpatPoke, right above yours stepped foot on UWs campus recently. Actually was in classrooms. His take is different than yours.
He also thinks this is a bad idea, does he not. I have no idea what his degree is in, maybe it was some kind of liberal arts degree due all I know. I can tell you, with my science degree, I didn’t have to take any of these kind of classes. Lots of math, science, and history for me. Little bit of anthropology too. Maybe that was my forced diversity indoctrination credit
Graduated in 15, so I stepped foot in a lot of classes.
You didn’t address the fact that entire MBA program tries to push everyone to work in Oil and Gas. That’s convenient.
Am I clamoring to have government regulate that? Nope.
And we aren’t in any way affiliated with the University.
Like I said, I’m a republican, more socially libertarian than anything I guess as in I’m not trying to control what gets taught, thought, and done in people’s bodies, bedrooms, and private lives. And frankly, I too find all the stuff you guys are so worked up about to be silly. But you have to recognize that we’re dealing with two sides of the same stupid coin here. You don’t solve the problem of people trying to force their beliefs on somebody by forcing your opposite beliefs on somebody. The far left and the far right are equally repugnant to me, both sides want to force their beliefs on everyone through government. I find the vast majority of people fall into those categories, nanny state types. Cry when the other side does it and turn a blind eye when their team gets away with, if not endorsing it outright.
When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.
