The Conservative Cave

the scary part is that they call Trump and every one of his supporters nazis when they are the real nazis and how they are talking about coming after all of us for retribution if they get back in power.

IIRC isn't that what the Nazis did in Germany when they took power in the 1930's?

Publishing entire syllabi will tend to expose teachers of unrelated subjects who sneak their social agenda into their courses, either by publishing it or students reporting their false syllabi.

I can’t remember if I’ve told this story or not. I’m getting old and forgetful so I might have, but I’m going to tell it anyway because I’ve seen some “educators” claim that there is no way for them to teach without their ideology being revealed.

I knew that I was a right-winger early on in life. About 1979, I was sitting in a history classroom on the first day of school, and the teacher walked in. I’d never seen him before, but as soon as I did, I knew that it was going to be a difficult semester for me because everything about him screamed bleeding heart, lefty hippie. I figured that I’d spend the entire semester in trouble for contesting his screwed up ideology. When the semester ended, much to my surprise, I had not had any issues with the teacher, and my final grade for the class was 100. I assumed that I had misjudged the guy. Fastforward to around 2005 or so, I happened upon the guy’s Facebook page. It was so full of leftwing BS that he’d be welcomed with open arms at DU. So way back during my school days, I was correct about his ideology, but he was apparently someone who took his job seriously and actually taught instead of trying to indoctrinate. Wouldn’t it be nice if all “educators” actually took their jobs seriously?

I don't remember AV bitching when Obama delivered a pallet of money to Iran...

PROF. JENKINS: My interaction with a ‘gender studies’ professor shows why open syllabi are needed

https://www.campusreform.org/article/prof-jenkins-interaction-gender-studies-professor-shows-open-syllabi-needed/29423

People often ask how, as a faculty member at a public university, I can get away with some of the things I say here at Campus Reform and elsewhere. The answer is partly that I have tenure, but mostly I’m just fortunate to work in Georgia—a Red state with moderately conservative leadership.
...
In a letter to all system institutions, the Board (of Regents) specified that instead of merely filling in a template with selected information, faculty must publish their entire syllabi—the same ones they distribute to students—which is exactly what I called for. I was pleased by the clarification and believe it’s the right move.

Not everyone, however, was happy. Shortly after the Board’s letter came out, I received an email from a colleague I don’t know personally who described herself as a “gender studies professor.” She was upset with some of the things I said in that Campus Reform op-ed (although to be fair, she was relatively polite—at first, anyway).

Specifically, she asked me two questions: why do I put “transgender” in quotation marks, and what do I think people should teach “in classes that discuss gender, sexuality, identity, and racial politics.”
...
As you might expect, she didn’t care for that answer, and she became increasingly hostile as we went back and forth. She accused me of promoting “right-wing” ideology, which is not true. I’m not political at all in my classroom, as I explained in another op-ed a few months ago.

And of course, she included the obligatory, “I hope you don’t ever have any gay or trans people in your classes,” implying that I might somehow discriminate against them, which is ludicrous. In my 40-plus years of teaching college, I’ve worked with all kinds of students, and I’ll put my record for fairness and objectivity up against anyone’s.

The most important piece of information I gleaned from our exchange, however, is that this person isn’t actually a “gender studies professor.” She’s a history professor teaching mostly sophomore-level survey courses. Her “discussions” about “gender, sexuality, identity, and race politics” take place under the banner of American or world history.

Publishing entire syllabi will tend to expose teachers of unrelated subjects who sneak their social agenda into their courses, either by publishing it or students reporting their false syllabi.

Here’s what I’ve never been able to figure out.

All of the larger countries are in debt. They all borrow money from each other. WHERE are they getting the money from to loan?  Haiti??

It makes zero sense. Explain it to me.
