		<description><![CDATA[I would encourage the author of this article to reach out and contact Dr. Little, who would more than likely be amenable to explaining his involvement in the cited Constitutional Law course contreversy. I would also invite Daniel Greenfield to come sit in on one of Dr. Little&#039;s classes, one of which I am currently enrolled. In my opinion this article is complete trash! It is fair to criticize a public university&#039;s 4 or 6 year graduation rate. It is fair to contextualize those graduation rates within the framework the UNC&#039;s specified goals, projections or guidelines. It is not fair to critize Dr. Little for his involvement in the Con Law Course contreversy without completely understanding the matter being discussed from the perspective of the students and faculty involved. Dr. Little does not inflate grades. Dr. Little is not amenible to grade inflation based on political activity. Dr. Little routinely kicks students out of class for not being fully prepared to discuss the course material assigned for reading. Dr. Little has an extremely strict attendance policy for all of his classes. Dr. Little has an extremely strict plagerism policy applied to all of his students. Dr. Little routinely invites professionals, bureacrats, and legislaters, and activists to his class in order to enrich his curriculum with the views, opinions and experinces of those practicing applied political science. This is not outside the norm for a POLITICAL SCIENCE PROFESSOR. Dr. Little is also sure that his students understand opposing viewpoints, especially views and theories counter to his own. I have argued and debated with Dr. Little over numerous subjects and topics, and though we rarely completely agree on anything, he has always shown me as much love and respect as he has shown most of his students.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;the majority of students enrolled in a constitutional law class in the fall of 2012 were saved&quot;
So much for someone claiming they are a constitutional law scholar. You need to ask where they studied. The majority??? And I am sure the balance wasn&#039;t all at the top of the class, where ever the top of the class was.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I much prefer the approach taken by the Technion, sometimes referred to as Israel&#039;s MIT. Though they want a diverse student body, there&#039;s no affirmative action, and no entrance quotas, and they&#039;re determined to maintain their rigorous academic standing. So what do they do?

They run a number of pre-university programs for those with motivation and promise, but substandard academic backgrounds. Even this program is no picnic; for some it lasts 18 months, and not everyone makes it. But those that do are ready for &quot;the machine&quot; - the pressures of a very demanding program.]]></description>
