    Who are the NERD fund donors Mr Snyder?

    Raise the curtain.

    Do you know what's happening on campus?

    It's that time of the year. Your children and grandchildren are off to school and back in the classrooms.

    However, do you really know what your tax dollars are funding at our public institutions of higher education?

    Instead of studying reading, writing and arithmetic, students are more likely to receive a lesson in indoctrination.

    What used to pass as controversial -- free condoms, abortion referrals and Sex 101 -- are no longer du jour.

    Today's students are being required to undergo "cultural sensitivity" orientation before setting foot on campus. They are bombarded with endless messages of diversity and tolerance; viewpoints that were probably never shared with parents during visitation sessions and campus tours.

    These mandatory orientation seminars are designed so students "remember the skits" throughout their four years, according to a diversity czar at one taxpayer-funded university.

    And what are these skits?

    They are attacks against anything and anyone viewed as culturally or socially unacceptable in academia: Christians, political conservatives, European-Americans and white men are scoundrels and hate-mongers that must be silenced and oppressed in the eyes of Ivory Tower elitists.

    If this wasn't bad enough, administrators and faculty at all 15 of Michigan's universities use tax dollars to fund programs and services that come straight out of liberal San Francisco and the handbook of Bill Ayers -- the domestic terrorist that launched the political career of President Barack Obama now writes the curriculum for many universities and K-12 school districts across the country.

    Instead of spending taxpayer money on educating students, the schools spend millions of dollars each year on the operations of diversity offices for every imaginable racial, cultural and sexual minority imaginable, hosting communist and avowed anti-American speakers like Angela Davis and Tom Hayden, sponsoring x-rated drag shows for cross-dressing deviants, and bringing in musical performers that promote alcohol, drugs, sex and the degrading of women.

    As taxpayers, we can no longer sit back and tolerate the systematic dismantling of our country. In the words of the philosopher Aristotle, "Tolerance and apathy are the last virtues of a dying society."

    Parents and grandparents need to get involved in the education of the next generation.

    Ask questions, review textbooks and most importantly, write state legislators to demand that increases in taxpayer funding be refused unless these radical, anti-family and un-American programs and services are ended.

    It's time to stand up before it's too late.

    Obama's book for Summer (none / 0) (#2)
    by BruceB on Mon Aug 24, 2009 at 05:38:02 PM EST
    A high school in New Jersey, I am certain there are others around the country, included one of Obama's books as "required" Summer reading.  Drug use and all?

    I have taught my children that their parents will not help them attend any school like the ones Dennis describes.  There are still some schools out there which teach the principles upon which our country was founded.  I will happily encourage and support them if they choose one of those.

    It's also important to teach (i.e., indoctrinate) the children at home about God, family, and government before they go out on their own.  That this is not widely practiced likely explains why Obama won the under-30 vote by a 2-to-1 margin last year.

    Parents and Taxpayers Must Pay Attention (none / 0) (#9)
    by MichWolverine on Wed Aug 26, 2009 at 02:02:31 PM EST
    Before allowing our daughter to attend a public university, we DID ASK questions.  We found that all of the so-called top tier schools to which she was accepted (UofM, Penn State, Tulane and Duke) all engaged in forced indoctrination programs, promoting their liberal views upon young and impressionable students.

    Then we discovered Hillsdale College.

    Hillsdale taught our daughter HOW to think, not WHAT to think.

    There wasn't any indoctrination or pushing of political or religious agendas.  Instead, she engaged in frank discussions where views were challenged and questioned, and where students and professors were expected to prove their supported viewpoints.

    In contrast to the public high school from which she graduated, where the curriculum had been dummied down and little was expected, our daughter finally received the benefit of participating in a competitive educational atmosphere.

    Hillsdale prepared our daughter to transition easily into graduate school, and also prepared her for the challenges of real life.

    If parents and taxpayers fail to question the radically liberal policies of our public educational institutions, we will find our society filled with indoctrinated minds of mush, who accept and act upon whatever they're instructed.  

    Oh wait. Didn't that just come to fruition last November?

    I'll select this article as my favorite.

    It, and the comments, example a crucially important area, education. Clue: They (various countries with tyrannical regimes and the Democrats) have always been focused on education.

    Reading the comments is an education!  The links are encouraging and helpful.

    Taken as a whole, this also examples what 'we the people' can accomplish when we stay involved. Rest assured, I'm taking notes on how, no thanks to my 'civics' teacher.
