		<description><![CDATA[I am Butler graduate, Class of&#039; &#039;51. I used to make moderate annual contributions to Butler. I stopped doing that several years ago after a preponderance of evidence piled up to support the idea that my alma mater had become a bastion of left wing thinking and teaching. The left wing professor he speaks of heads the political science department. She also writes a race based column frequently for the Indianapolis Star. I shudder to think that she is in a position to spread her socialistic beliefs onto the minds of young, impressionable students. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The education in this country is dismal, to say the least.  Mostly because, out of all of the comments to this article, no one has dared to consider that this professor may be actually making a good point.  If Lovelace is feeling attacked, challenged, then good.  It&#039;s supposed to be a challenge.  It&#039;s college.  But then again, this is America where every whiny, snively individual can complain that something is too hard or &#039;that hurts my feelings.&#039; Grow up, Lovelace and embrace the wisdom that might come your way.  Use the disdain that you have for this professor and what she&#039;s requesting and ace the damn class.  You might actually learn something. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ &quot;In my opinion, a good majority of students with no degrees have better work ethic and common sense.&quot; 
 
 
These days, the traditional path to education doesn&#039;t guarantee much at all. 
 
Hang in there...the message will get out to more people and a consensus will build. Most political movements are like a pendulum and we&#039;ve got to make sure we are putting our efforts in the right direction with patience and perseverance, then things will go our way because our ideas are clearly better, being based on reality (all sarcasm aside). ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[[Research and Analysis, a class taught by a black woman who calls on students, in the name of &#8220;social justice,&#8221; to use &#8220;inclusive language,&#8221; meaning language that &#8220;affirms sexuality, racial and ethnic backgrounds,&#8221; and so on, and that, Lovelace writes, expects students &#8220;to disregard their &#8216;American-ness, maleness, whiteness, heterosexuality, middle-class status&#8217; when writing and speaking in the classroom.&#8221;] 
 
So this leftist loon &quot;professor&quot; is asking to &quot;affirm&quot; sexuality, racial and ethnic backgrounds and &quot;disregard&quot; these characteristics at the same time. Quite a feat!

		<description><![CDATA[A black female professor who demands &quot;inclusiveness&quot; and &quot;appreciation of diversity&quot; from students?  Ugh.  A prison.  I&#039;d rather spend my tuition money on a dominatrix.   
 
A small caveat:  Bruce Bawer initially refers to Butler University as though he&#039;s never heard of the place.  It has about 5,000 undergraduate and graduate students.  Its basketball team played Duke down to the last second in the 2010 Division 1-A championship game before losing.  Hardly small-time.       ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Go to any journalism school today and ask the students why they have picked this &quot;Profession.&quot;  The answer will invariable be, &quot;Because I want to change the world,&quot; or, &quot;I want to make the world a better place.&quot;   Higher education today should be called Highway Riobbery Education.  Examine the salaries and benefits of the presidents of universities.  Overpaid so-called professors leave the teaching to assistants and grad students.  So called teacher&#039;s colleges are probably the worst, turning out union driven drones whose most important learned skill is stapling a union placard to a stick and walking in a circle.  Here in Texas the two year colleges are getting students who need remedial classes in reading, reading comprehension and basic writing.  A properly constructed sentence?  What&#039;s that?  Our high schools here have a &quot;Spokesperson.&quot;  I guess the Principal cannot speak for himself.  Sounds like a show-up-when-needed job to me - at 60K to the taxpayers.  However, isn&#039;t the continuing dumbing down of society part of &quot;The plan.&quot;  After all, isn&#039;t the result of our past election proof of its sucess? ]]></description>
