You know, as someone who spent 4 years in college and 6 years in grad school, I never quite bought into the whole Universities are indoctrinating students mantra. Sure, there was affirmative action and things like that. But I was in a science department, where we collectively ridiculed the liberal arts. Last month, a number of my former high school students, now in college, wrote letters to our board of education where I teach. After reading their views on how the high school supposedly "failed them", their newfound views on systemic racism and so called segregation....it's 100% true, if not worse than we ever thought. These are kids coming from a super rich, sheltered, mostly white community, where us as teachers usually have to deal with their influential helicopter parents. We constantly tell them how they have no idea what other towns or cities are like and they just brush us off like we are bullshitting them. Now, all of the sudden, 3 years later they are "enlightened" and it was all our fault. One of them had the gaul to write that they never knew how segregated NYC was. Wtf? You didn't know Harlem was black? You didn't know there was a Chinatown? Little Italy? Hell's Kitchen?

Now that being said, 95% of the student body is wonderful and the kids are some of the best you'd ever have the pleasure of working with. But 5% of them literally are the most entitled brats on the face of the planet and they are the ones who perpetuate this bullshit.

Is all that weird lgbt pedo stuff coming from them too? Or is that something else?

Well, Columbia sheep dipped Manchurian Obama with a false academic record, when by all accounts, he never even attended classes. Columbia is the Mother of KommieKunt university ideology since forever.
