They passed legistlation in Arizona that would make it legal for university students to opt out of assigned readings that they find personally offensive or pornographic. I always thought testing your boundaries and being exposed to ideas that you don't agree with was part of the college experience. -------------------- death to false dudes

what about profs who you just can't stand and find it offensive
for example: i had an english prof for fiction who EVERY story, was releated to female empowerment. i shit you not, it was never anything the woman did wrong, it was always the man. not only the sotry, but discussions in the story. the class became stupid & students didn't care for her -------------------- |
