I find the liberal agenda that is etched into the design of school systems, the speech of instructors and in particular the text books absolutely grotesque.grotesque.

Laptops were only invented to hide boners. I can prove it.
Do you have any specific/general examples of this liberal agenda etching?

I’m going to somewhat reluctantly share just a few things that I have observed in college. EVERY SINGLE instructor I have had outside of the sign language program have openly condoned and/or made light of smoking marijuana, growing marijuana, drinking alcohol and use foul language. Ok so we’re all adults. That’s exactly the reason that foul language and such ILLEGAL topics should be refrained from. Do you want your future children hearing this garbage in school? The fact of the matter is that some students at my college are still in high school and under the legal age of adulthood. They also speak negatively about conservatives and are pushing political leaning on children that yes, are now old enough to wipe their own butts but they still need their parents to buy the toilet paper. For God’s sake let these children that are still molding who they are develop their own ideologies without trying to steer political votes.
One day I joined a group of people which my wife is part of, that were studying for the nursing program and they were talking about how an instructor openly claimed that he preferred young children for sex. Did anyone go to the Dean? I have no idea but if I would have been there his head would have rolled.
My wife has heard unacceptable, sexual innuendos and arguable sexual advances in 90% of her classes.
The text books are pockmarked with liberal concepts and conveniently they steer a biased positive light on liberal figures and media outlets. There are alternative examples without interjecting politics into classes that have nothing to do with politics. I’m not really taking count of such instances because I need to slalom around the political ideology to learn the content and receive an A in the class. I’d feel the same way if text books and/or instructors were trying to steer conservative votes.
In one text book, when I saw them shed positive light on the self-proclaimed Marxist, Van Jones. I almost lost it.
There are other things that concern me but my spiritual beliefs are not for consumption here. Is my college in the minority? |

I'll share my views as an instructor and a student.
As a student: I've had some professors who are open about those things, some not so much. It's been completely varied. I've had professors ask if I wanted to go get high (bravecoward knows who I'm talking about), and I've had some professors who were so straight-laced they wouldn't say "damn." As an instructor: I don't talk about marijuana, mostly because I don't use marijuana. I talk about drinking, because I drink, and because it's legal. I don't curse in front of my students, best I can help it. Overall though, I don't see what it has to do with someone's political leanings?
In college? I don't really have a problem with it. Even for dual-enrollment programs, those students and those approving of their placement in the program should be aware that college is composed of adults who will talk about adult things. Now, if we were talking about IN a high school, this is a completely different conversation.
As a student: That stuff is going to vary from place to place. It does happen because, frankly, professors have opinions. And yes, professors are going to be able to speak openly about those opinions -- but as long as they don't grade based on those opinions, I'm fine with it. I've had diehard conservative political science and economics professors before who I've done fine in their class and had open dialogue with. As an instructor: I don't discuss politics with my students, generally, unless it's on the topic of teaching them how to report on politics -- to which I keep everything as neutral as humanly possible.
Is it possible to discuss political ideas without it being "steering?"
What does this have to do with political ideology?

In what context was the reference being used?

I'm also referring to societal liberalism.
sorry but I'm not going back through a pile of text books.maybe I should have made notes on my concerns. This isn't even about me. I'm concerned for the future of this nation. The garbage isn't going to influence me I'm too old and have been kicked around the block many times Edited by Lightningbolt - 05 October 2012 at 7:37pm |

Yes, because we all know college/ university is where you go to be sheltered from thoughts and ideas and activities that you aren't used to. It should be a safe, conservative haven where new ideas and progressive exploration are absent.

I see what you're saying but it doesn't take away from the legitimacy of my concerns. The extra curricular garbage didn't exist 27 years ago when I was in college and the process of instructors teaching students was better in that respect. Obviously great strides in school related knowledge have happened since then.

It has been a long time since I was in college. I will say that most of the professors that taught my Criminal Justice courses and most of the Pre Law/Paralegal professors tended to be considerably more conservative than were most of my other professors. I don't remember any professors speaking about pot, but my gay German teacher with a Southern accent did invite all the students to the German restaurant every week and from my understanding tended to get very drunk.
I'll have to admit LB, you're a hell of a lot older than I thought you were.
