•Washington State students risk a failing grade in one course if they use any common descriptors professor considers "oppressive and hateful language."

•In another class, students will lose one point every time they use the words "illegal alien" or "illegals" rather than the preferred terms of "'undocumented' migrants/immigrants/persons."

Ah Washington, that explains it. March to that leftist drum, or suffer the consequences. Imagine a conservative pulling the same stunt!

That'll last till the first lawsuit around September 19th, when minorities' grades start going-down along with everybody else's. 

I suppose 'bitch' and 'whore (ho)' will be still okay.

Time was, a college was a bastion of free speech.

UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA LITERATURE COURSE ON 9/11 SYMPATHIZES WITH TERRORISTS AND PAINTS USA AS IMPERIALISTIC

Quote
An English class offered at UNC Chapel Hill this fall called "Literature of 9/11" explores the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks from the perspective of radical Islamists and those who view America as an imperialist nation.

The reading assignments for the class, which includes poems, memoirs and graphic novels, present terrorists in a sympathetic light and American political leaders as greedy, war hungry and corrupt, according to a review by The College Fix.

The readings mostly focus on justifying the actions of terrorists – painting them as fighting against an American regime, or mistaken idealists, or good people just trying to do what they deem right. None of the readings assigned in the freshman seminar present the Sept. 11 attacks from the perspective of those who died or from American families who lost loved ones.

UNCSept11"ENGL 72: Literature of 9/11" is taught by Neel Ahuja, an associate professor of English, comparative literature, and geography at University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill.

"Neel grew up in Topeka, Kansas. He studied transnational cultural studies at the University of California, San Diego and gender studies at Northwestern University, where he was a student organizer and labor solidarity activist," according to his online faculty bio.

The danger to America is not Barack Obama but the citizens capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency.
