The Hard Road Ahead

[revjen45]

I graduated from HS in 1965, before the Federal Leviathan had taken over every aspect of the public educational system. The students got a grounding in history, civics, etc which was not written by the likes of Bill Ayers. I remember asking why it was necessary to learn this stuff, which seemed at the time wasted effort. The answer was so you will recognize what's happening should the rights of Free Amereicans be threatened. Yeah, right - like that's gonna happen.

Now the "educational" system has become a vehicle of International Socialist behavior modification, and the populace is kept distracted by the equivalent of bread and circuses. See Matt Bracken's essay "When the Music Stops" for a preview of coming attractions.

Agree I High school in late 70's for me and then i did not get serious about college until 90's took a break and in 2003 went back and finished the bachelors degree, and man what i difference from 80's, 90's to 2003 socialistic BS was running rampant, I and few others really got into it with a few of the professors and when spewed out fact data and life experiences which they had none because they (the professors) had gotten their degrees and then became professors, I call the regurgitation professionals. Anyways they did not liek it when they told they were more full of sh!t than a baby robin, but when we backed it up with facts they just stood there like the idiots they are.

Most of Todays college gradidiates are sucha bunch bumbling buttheads full of socialistic crap they cannot open their mouth without a roll of TP in hand to wipe the diarhea

I just finished my bachelor's from a private college and it would be an unequivocal understatement for me to say that they didn't want me around for the MBA; so Eastern Kentucky online gets my money.............

I had this one professor who forced ambiguous syllabi & rubrics on us and I questioned her after class; here is the transcript that illustrates why a college degree means "I'm congruent" more than ever:

S: I have a question about this rubric.
P: What do you mean?
S: This rubric is full of ambiguity.
P: I don't understand what you are saying.
S: That is what I am trying to tell you, I don't understand what you
want from the cohort.
P: What are you saying?
S: That is what I am trying to tell you, the cohort doesn't know
what you want from us.
P: Explain to me what you want.
S: That is what I am asking you to do; you have "write a thorough
paper" indicated on this rubric, what does thorough mean?
P: I don't understand what you mean by asking me what I mean by
thorough.
S: Look, you give us these ambiguous requirements that do not
contain a quantifiable standard.
P: What are you trying to say?
S: If you would listen to me, I'm telling you we don't know what you want us to say, There is no way for a student to know in advance what you want (one page, ten pages...) what does "write a thorough paper" mean?
P: Its getting late, can we figure this out some other time?
S: Sure, but what does "figure this out" mean?

This conversation at a dry erase board really occurred; I cut it short to save band width. I got a B in that class; organizational communication.

I had a professor in 2003 who said that all of america or at least most of it wanted socialism and myself and a couplf others who older 20 yr old puppies, looked at each and said what.

The puppies started agreeing and then we chimed in, in a few minutes it was conveniently time to go early becaus eof bad weather, yeah in the middle of the summer. On the way over 1/2 the class comment how they were confused because they were told in school everything we said was wrong but they agreed with us. Scarey huh

BTW, I got a B- in the class and would have a C if the nut job professor thought he could get away with it
