Baby Steps on the Path of Closing Down the Universities By James Reed

     Here is some good news from the United States, about one university which is eliminating useless disciplines that do not generate employment:

“The University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point has proposed dropping 13 majors in the humanities and social sciences — including English, philosophy, history, sociology and Spanish — while adding programs with “clear career pathways” as a way to address declining enrolment and a multimillion-dollar deficit. Students and faculty members have reacted with surprise and concern to the news, which is being portrayed by the school’s administration as a path to regain enrolment and provide new opportunities to students. Critics see something else: a waning commitment to liberal arts education and a chance to lay off faculty under new rules that weakened tenure.

Students are planning a sit-in at the campus administration building on Wednesday in a demonstration called Save Our Majors. The Stevens Point Journal said students will then deliver a list of demands and requests to school officials. The school is one of  11 comprehensive campuses in the University of Wisconsin system. The push away from liberal arts and toward workplace skills is championed by conservatives who see many four-year colleges and universities as politically correct institutions that graduate too many students without practical job skills — but with liberal political views.”

     That pretty much sums it all up. The universities are horrible politically correct training grounds for the next generation of troublemakers. Like dealing with insect pests that sting, like European socialist wasps, it is best to do away with the nest, cutting of the source generating the problem in the first place.
