You assume that the male students will be allowed to take the test home just like the female students. Not necessarily true.

Filed under Great Moments in U.S. Education....

One in seven adults believe chocolate milk comes from brown cows. And of all places, it's the Washington Compost which says....

QuoteFor decades, observers in agriculture, nutrition and education have griped that many Americans are basically agriculturally illiterate. They don't know where food is grown, how it gets to stores — or even, in the case of chocolate milk, what's in it.

One Department of Agriculture study, commissioned in the early '90s, found that nearly 1 in 5 adults did not know that hamburgers are made from beef. Many more lacked familiarity with basic farming facts, like how big U.S. farms typically are and what food animals eat.

Experts in ag education aren't convinced that much has changed in the intervening decades.

"At the end of the day, it's an exposure issue," said Cecily Upton, co-founder of the nonprofit FoodCorps, which brings agricultural and nutrition education into elementary schools. "Right now, we're conditioned to think that if you need food, you go to the store. Nothing in our educational framework teaches kids where food comes from before that point."

In my area, which is 90% rural and gloriously green this time of year, liberals move in from cities and immediately try to shut down dairy or pig farming operations, completely uncaring that it is all part and parcel of the farming environment. They even write whiny letters to local papers saying those big farm machines should be moved only after dark, when liberal airheads are less likely to be bothered.

But whatever you do, boys and girls, don't you EVER say we need MORE religion in schools --- and NOT the death cult of Islam. Whatever you do, don't say conservatives should be allowed equal speech and equal respect while they speak it.

If someone mentions wartime war bond sales, MOCK IT! Leftists hate America! Never let kids say the Pledge of Allegiance! What would parents think if their kid came home actually respecting the country he/she/confused actually lives in?

A dean (of obvious Asian ancestry) at Yale has resigned after calling whites "trash".

Warning: New York Slimes as source.

QuoteA dean at Yale who was placed on leave after she left online reviews recommending a restaurant for "white trash" customers and describing movie theater workers as "barely educated morons" has left her position permanently, a college official said.

June Y. Chu, who was appointed in May 2016 as the dean of Pierson College, one of Yale's residential colleges, posted a series of reviews on Yelp that were published by The Yale Daily News last month with screenshots of 10 of them dating back to 2015. The newspaper said that the reviews had caught the attention of Pierson students and had circulated among them.

"If you are white trash, this is the perfect night out for you!" she wrote in one review, published under the name June C., about a local Japanese restaurant.

Another review, for a cinema, said of its concession workers: "So what they have is barely educated morons trying to manage snack orders for the obese and also try to add $7 plus $7."

Dr. Chu later deleted her Yelp account and sent an email to the residential college community apologizing, the News said.

This is good news. For the second time this week we have two college educators removed for their leftist rantings. There is a message here folks.
"If you can't run with the big dawgs, stay on the porch!"

One of the best examinations of leftist insanity that I have ever read appears at the blog "The Other McCain," wherein this appears as part of a very long story on the nutjob Dr. Deborah Frisch, PhD.

Take time. It's well worth the long read.

QuoteNo matter how many Republicans you elect to office, your children will still be educated by Democrats, and some of these left-wing totalitarians are dangerously deranged. Last month, Diablo Valley College instructor Eric Clanton was arrested for assaulting Trump supporters in Berkeley. Conservative students are threatened with violence on many campuses, and are "afraid to speak out" in their own defense. Left-wing students erupt in violence when conservative speakers are invited to campus, and even a liberal professor who supported Bernie Sanders is threatened when he disagrees with the student totalitarian mob.

"Politics is downstream from culture," as Andrew Breitbart said, and our culture is being polluted by an educational establishment that is controlled by left-wing ideologues. Studies show that Democrats outnumber Republicans 12-to-1 on university faculties, the result of deliberate discrimination by administrators who have spent decades working to purge conservative viewpoints from campus.

It's easy to laugh at a deranged nutjob like Deborah Frisch, Ph.D., but what is truly insane is that parents continue to pay tuition to send their children to be indoctrinated by professors who, as evidence suggests, are only slightly less crazy than the original moonbat professor.
 

Worse yet --- when only women are educated, will we still be America?
