It's a liberal witchhunt

Proponents of the Academic Bill of Rights--what you've never heard of this? It's very humorous, check it out here--are in full force again as they aim their guns at women's studies departments across the U.S. Proponents of the bill often charge women's studies programs with being liberal indoctrination that violates intellectual diversity. Opponents say the bill is a right-wing attempt to gain control of universities by co-opting minority status. Using the politically correct language of "diversity" and "equality," typically coded as liberal, the movement is said to undermine these very concepts in the process. I didn't know I'd run into this monster again, as I had to do some pretty extensive research on the bill after Professor Joan Scott talked about it as part of a lecture series last September. Who knew that this kind of shit actually gets off the ground, especially when the writer/creator of the bill--David Horowitz--is obviously nutso? Well, let me take that back: we're not dealing with the brightest population on the planet (save you, my wondrous reader). Thanks to Sarah for the story.
