if your school takes more than 30ish credits it's probably more cause for alarm than anything

My older brother has a BS in Aeronautics from Embry Riddle he got in the mid 90s. Nothing gets him so sad as hearing the private school he had to be in the top 7% of SAT scores to get in to is now a loving UoP substitute

Jeez, are colleges in left-leaning states really that bad? My school was in the deep South. Aside from the occasional wacko who thought anyone to the left of Rick Santorum was a bomb-throwing anarchist, it was a pretty moderate experience. Rich kid conservatives and Atlanta liberals with a sprinkling of dumb rednecks.

The worst class I saw in my school was young adult literature, aka vampire books 101. It was for library science majors though, so it made sense.

I went to school in I guess the shallow South and it was full-bore silly season, and that was almost 20 years ago. My first college job was at an openly Communist bookstore. The local SJW groups routinely held marches, published lists of demands in the school paper, etc. All the local storekeepers, coffee shop owners etc bragged about how they'd all voted for McGovern back in the day.

'Course that school's getting burned for mixing too much SJW into the football program now, which is pretty funny

There's a genderqueer course list. I have no idea what they teach nor will I ever, ever find out ever.

quote:

LGQ 280
LGBTQ LITERATURE FROM THE ANCIENT WORLD TO THE RENAISSANCE
(UNDERGRADUATE)
This course looks at constructions of queer desire in texts of the Western tradition from ancient Judea, Greece, and Rome through the European Middle Ages and into the English Renaissance. We will also learn to perform "queer readings" on texts that may not at first glance seem all that queer. The course will range across many linguistic and cultural traditions. We will read non-English texts in translation, but we may consult the originals in class and certainly knowledge of an ancient tongue or modern Romance language will be useful (but not required-don't worry!). As the title implies, the course will proceed historically, but we will be returning throughout to some basic questions: in what sorts of contexts do we find queer resistance to heteronormative assumptions? do some literary genres seem more hospitable than others to representations of queer desire? how do representations of sexuality relate to larger notions of gender and social class? how do the constructions of queer desire we find here differ from modern lesbian and gay identities? This is a great opportunity to think about queer identity while reading and discussing some amazing texts.

I don't mention being military ever but some NG gently caress recognized my KIA bracelt and outed me in my Tumblr-ish class while answering a really stupid question. Now I get asked about all manner of dumb poo poo during discussion time.

This kind of poo poo always reminds me of the chuckle gently caress (of course female) who blurted out in one of my classes about how she thought, "being a soldier isn't THAT stressful, I mean it's not like they're getting shot at all the time."

I read an article in Wired that said soldiers in "the 'Stan," as it is affectionately termed by the down-to-earth yet uncannily witty and insightful grunts just trying to get home to their families, just play Call of Duty and stuff their faces with surf and turf in the green zone all day.
