How long has it been since you were in school? A lot has changed over the years. Having had a child graduate from college not all that long ago, I can tell you that it is a lot of propaganda. The graduation itself was so politicized we did not even attend....thankfully our son was not interested in going either. What a shame how things have changed since I went to college, although even then there was a lot of the same going on, just not so blatant as today. Do you wonder why our kids are not the best and the brightest with all the money thrown at academia?
