Totalitarian university left-wingers DENOUNCE state legislation to protect free speech on college campuses: South Dakota State University’s student senate recently passed a resolution that objected to House Bill 1073, which would have guaranteed that all students on campus would be protected from those that seek to limit their free speech rights. “Senators were kept in the Student Union until nearly 11pm, and were repeatedly pushed to bypass rules and vote on the resolution less than 10 hours after it was drafted, and before any students could be consulted...”
The Left's Siege of Our Universities: Ordinary Canadians... were stupefied at the overt intimidation and condemnation Shepherd was subjected to, including accusations of “transphobia,” a comparison of Peterson to Hitler and for good measure a sprinkling of demonizing “racism” and “white supremacist” to ensure the message took hold. All because she adopted a perspective of neutrality in presenting conflicting opinions to her class so that they could freely discuss the issue without her influence. This was an intolerable stance for her left-wing superiors.

(I hope this warning doesn't apply to most college campuses!) Vampires, Zombies And ‘Hooking Up’: 37 Examples Of Real College Courses That Are Almost Too Crazy To Believe: All over America we push our young people to get good grades so that they can get “a college education”, but then once they get through college many of our young people are completely unequipped to deal with the real world.
Personally, I spent eight years at public universities, and I can tell you that the quality of education that our college students are receiving is a complete joke. Especially on the undergraduate level, almost all testing consists of either true/false, multiple choice or fill in the blank questions. ... I am about to share with you a list of 37 of the most ridiculous courses that are currently being offered at major U.S. colleges and universities today. See Ban truth - Reap Tyranny
Millions of School-Issued Computers Caught Secretly Spying on Children Without Consent: ...school officials had the ability to remotely access the webcams on the laptops, and spy on the students in their homes.

CA schools pass weakened assessments: "Californians troubled by the public school drive toward statewide standardized testing now face a reformed — but weaker — system of assessment. ... At the federal level, Congress turned its back on No Child Left Behind, the Bush-era legislation that drew consistent fire from some Republicans and Democrats concerned that assessing student performance was becoming more formulaic and outcome-based than appropriate. The new law — known as the Every Student Succeeds Act — 'aims to take a more holistic approach to evaluating schools, using qualities beyond test scores,' the Los Angeles Times noted." But what does it all mean?

A Federal Jury Speaks, and Academic Freedom Wins: "....a federal jury found that the University of North Carolina–Wilmington (UNCW) violated the free speech rights of conservative Christian professor, Mike Adams. Specifically, the jury found that Dr. Adams’s First Amendment–protected speech was a 'substantial or motivating factor' in the defendants’ decision not to promote him to full professor....
"Dr. Adams began his career at UNCW in 1993 as an outspoken atheist and liberal. During this period, he was widely praised in the university for his teaching and scholarship and achieved tenure in 1998 without any controversy. In 2000, however, shortly after visiting a mentally handicapped prisoner on death row in Texas — and being struck by the fact that this prisoner had read the entire Bible while he had not — Dr. Adams read the Bible and experienced a religious conversion, becoming a Christian and, over time, a conservative as well....
"As a conservative, Dr. Adams eventually began writing a column for Townhall.com that is often sharply critical of leftist excesses in universities nationwide, as well as in his own university.
"The reaction within the university was furious...The chancellor also placed him under a brief, secret investigation at the request of an anarchist transgendered group to determine whether Dr. Adams was passing along 'transphobic' views to students.... So far Dr. Adams’s stand has led to a historic appeals-court ruling in favor of academic freedom and a historic jury verdict, but the case isn’t over." See The Power and Perversions of Laws

: "In a blow to the rights of students to engage in peaceful, patriotic expression, a federal appeals court has ruled that California public school officials did not violate the First Amendment rights of several students who were ordered to cover up their patriotic apparel emblazoned with American flags or be sent home on the Mexican holiday Cinco de Mayo, allegedly out of a concern that it might offend Hispanic students.
"Although the appeals court acknowledged that other students were permitted to wear Mexican flag colors and symbols, it ruled that the school was allowed to forbid the American flag apparel out of concerns that it would cause disruption, even though no disruption had occurred."

8 Yr Old Autistic Boy Not Allowed to Read Bible during Free Time at School: "We’ve heard of teachers failing student’s reports because they wrote about God.

He called some of the claims opponents are making—that the standards and tests will lead to mind control, robots, and biometric brain mapping—just 'wacky.'....

'I think with this resolution, we’ve marginalized, quite frankly, the anti-crowd into a very minute number,' Kelly told the Detroit News....
"Kelly apparently has no interest in the concerns of parents and academics who say the standards are dumbing down education, or represent an unconstitutional federal intrusion into public education. He apparently has no respect for the Maryland parent who was arrested for simply questioning bureaucrats who were talking about the supposed virtues of the new national standards."
Classroom chaos? Critics blast new Common Core education standards: “It’s just now reaching their school districts and their children’s schools and they want to know, ‘What is this, and why is it being forced on us?’ said the Cato Institute’s Neil McCluskey.
"...the chaos has only just begun. Those states administered their own standardized tests aligned with Common Core, and the results were disastrous. ...Kentucky, which also implemented its own Common Core-aligned tests, experienced similar declines in scores. Other states are waiting until at least 2014-15 to implement Common Core tests that are still in development."

The Confused & Misguided Youth: (Thomas Sowell) “The problem isn’t that Johnny can’t read. The problem isn’t even that Johnny can’t think. The problem is that Johnny doesn’t know what thinking is; he confuses it with feeling.” ...And the culprits are the American public education, an ever growing lack of religious education, and the indifferent parenting that does not question what children learn or do not learn in school. Young people in any generation tend to be naïve, idealistic, and gullible; it is easy to sell them anything because they confuse feelings with rational thought. They are told so often and so early in life that they are special that they form a distorted view of themselves."
