Yup, we keep giving in and they take more and more and more. When I think I've finally heard the most asinine thing I've ever heard (actually thinking it's something from the Bee), then something even more outlandish comes out a few days later. As of now, here we are......can't wait until tomorrow.

I wish I could take this class so I could refute everything they “teach”

I managed to avoid the SJW days in college and so far I've avoided things like diversity and sensitivity training in the workplace.
I kind of wonder how much trouble I'd get myself in if I have to attend one of these classes. I might not be able to keep my mouth shut.

If you live in BR, just take time out of your day to go to Cox Auditorium and sit in. Mandatory class like that will be held in a large venue. No need to be a student. Just dress casual, throw on a backpack, and walk right in. Then...have a field day.

That's not how it works.

Notice which group made the recommendation...

You voted for shite like this.
So everyone who is a member of their respective party 100% supports every idea that fits under that party's umbrella?
You think Joe Biden is responsible for this? And my point is... And I would think this would be common sense.. is that what they will be trying to teach can only be taught through life experience.
This will only cause tension between people who are racist.

I stopped donating when they removed Middleton's name from the library.
I don’t donate so I know my opinion isn’t very valuable, but that would have been the camel straw for me. I would feel so much better about with a very direct email about why and pulling my donation. All the progress that was made in increasing the endowment of LSU Alhmni and then they pull the rug out from all those efforts by doing full Leftist.
Sad, but they deserve it.

I already have and haven't looked back.

You seem to be under the misapprehension that "Anti-Racism" is just not being racist. It's not that...at all. For a bit of a primer, check out this link. It's a page set up by James Lindsay that offers definitions and explanations for "woke" phraseology.
LINK
First bit is an excerpt from Robin DiAngelo who has made frickING BANK in 2020 thanks to all the white guilt this year forcing so many to read her screed White Fragility. After the excerpt, it's Lindsay explaining the horseshite.
You'd be getting this type of crap she spews in her book as fact in this class.

I’m a firm believer in the “if you give someone an inch, they will take a mile” theory.
This BS proves it applies here as well.

Sounds like an easy A. Why wouldn’t I?

Do you have to sing the Black National Anthem before each class session as well?
Asking for a black friend.

Sociology is SJW central. I had to take a deviant sociology class and was the only dude in there. I purposely took up "controversial" subjects to do my class reports. While I was not the most popular guy in the room, I did get fairly graded which shocked me.
It's impossible for any sane, decent person to sit through that crap and not be antagonized.
I can't imagine how horrid this anti racist shite would be. Progs are fricking bizarre.

Well, if they approve this I’m sure that will go over well for them
Posted on 12/22/20 at 1:43 pm to YatInTheHat
Same. I'll suggest to my kid that they go to ULL.

You are absolutely right. It’s because higher education is a scam unless you are getting certain degrees, and even then the information could be taught in a more efficient manner.
