George Will Critiques "Higher" Education
No sure if there are any George Will fans out there, but his latest column in the Jewish World Review is quite priceless: “America’s Higher Education Brought Low”. Here is the link: http://www.jewishworldreview.com/cols/will112515.php3 Will chastises the SJW takedown of the collegiate system. Essentially, his article echoes what the Manosphere has been pointing out for several years. Will uses a series of examples to make his point, letting the insanity speak for itself. Here are some choice excerpts:

•The University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee, an irony-free campus, declared the phrase "politically correct" a microaggression.
•Wesleyan created a "safe space," a.k.a. a house, for LGBTTQQFAGPBDSM students (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Transsexual, Queer, Questioning, Flexual, Asexual, Genderf---, Polyamorous, Bondage/Discipline, Dominance/Submission, Sadism/Masochism).
•A Washington State University professor said she would lower the grade of any student who used the term "illegal immigrants" when referring to immigrants here illegally.
•The University of Tennessee's Office for Diversity and Inclusion, worried that students might be uncomfortable with gender-specific pronouns ("he," "she," "him," "her"), suggests gender-neutral noises ("ze," "hir," "xe," "xem," "xyr").
•Mount Holyoke College canceled its annual production of "The Vagina Monologues" because it is insufficiently inclusive regarding women without vaginas and men who, as the saying goes, "self-identify" as women.

I could continue with the examples, but you get the picture. The college campus has become an ideological circus, and Americans (such as Will) are starting to take notice. Will closes out his piece with a great question…

“So, today give thanks that 2015 has raised an important question about American higher education: What, exactly, is it higher than?”
