Perhaps we should take a look at what some of these universities are doing and decide if that is the direction that the students, taxpayers and alumni who support Iowa State think we should go. This publication lists some of the bizarre courses now offered in America's colleges and universities. In this report, Mike Wallace went to leading universities and talked to professors in Gay Studies Departments where he found all sorts of bizarre theories being taught. I get frustrated just discussing something so absurd.
Professors sometimes cross over the line between objective scholarship and political advocacy.
At Wabash College, students in the all-male school were required by a female English instructor to write the dean requesting that Wabash admit women even though most of these students favored Wabash remaining all male. The instructor, who was a graduate of an all-women college, was reportedly surprised that some students took issue with the assignment. At Purdue University, student Jeremy Beer went to his philosophy class and found the professor censoring Christians. Anyone with sincere religious beliefs will be expected to take off his 'religious hat' when he enters this class and replace it with an agnostic one. That is the only way philosophy can proceed.
