Indoctrination in Delaware

I don't know if you have heard about the program at the University of Delaware wherein they had a "treatment" for the "incorrect attitudes and beliefs" of their students, but I am relieved to tell you that said program has been terminated, effective immediately. FrontPage Magazine has an article about the program and its termination, "Victory at University of Delaware" which recounts the story and provides links to more information about it.

This program was a shocking attempt to "train" students to think in a certain way about various issues of the day. At Jewish World Review, Dr. Walter Williams writes a column titled "Academic Cesspools II" which details some of the insane things that the University of Delaware was doing before the program was terminated. We can all be thankful the program has ended.

I would urge alumni and parents of students to find out what is going on at their universities and get involved in supporting true academic freedom. Voting with their pocketbooks and their feet would be a good beginning.
