Ashley Herzog is a college student at Ohio University and a blogger for Town Hall, one of the last bastions of conservatism in a medium overrun by liberal outlets like the New York Post, the Washington Times, the Utah Herald Journal, and, of course, those Commie pinko queers at Fox News.
Herzog is atypical of college students-- and we mean besides the fact that she doesn't support lowering the drinking age to 18 (or 12, as we've always favored.) Here's part of her recent post about Back To School stuff:
When school starts in the fall, many college students will be paying
exorbitant tuition to universities that offer a silver platter of
worthless courses: classes in Marxism, prostitution (Sociology of the
Sex Industry is all the rage), “queer theory,” pornography, and rock
and rap music. While some of these classes are easy to spot as
non-educational, others masquerade under legitimate-sounding names in
mainstream academic departments.
As an Ohio University senior who has sat through plenty of college junk
courses—many of which were required for graduation—I’ve compiled a list
classes for incoming freshmen to avoid.
Well, we're pretty sure classes in Marxism, prostitution (Sociology of the
Sex Industry is all the rage), “queer theory,” pornography, and rock
and rap music were not required, you nitwit. And we're pretty sure even a liberal warhorse like, um, Ohio University has one or two classes up your conservative alley.
So, what are those classes we thinking people should avoid, Ash?
Don’t register for English classes that revolve around the writings of
some allegedly oppressed group, such as “Gay and Lesbian Literature” or
“Women and Writing.” These classes typically have nothing to do with
great, or even good, literature.
Avoid classes that teach American history not as it actually happened,
but as the professor thinks it should have happened. Check out the
required texts before registering. If the professor uses books like
Howard Zinn’s A People’s History of the United States (which claims
that American leaders orchestrated the Civil War to halt the impending
socialist revolution), don’t waste your money
Well, having read that book we can say the reason you're upset with it is because it doesn't present the world the way the conservative movement would like to see it. And sorry, Ashley, but sometimes that's the way things go...
