Camille Paglia: 'Universities Are an Absolute Wreck Right Now'

& | May 19, 2016

"The universities are an absolute wreck right now," said Camille Paglia. "For decades any graduate student in the humanities who had independent thinking was driven out."  Paglia, the noted cultural critic, university professor, and Salon columnist, sat down with Reason's Nick Gillespie to discuss whether we should still look to universities for cultural production and knowledge. She noted a shift in attitude toward authority on campus: Students used to look for ways to get administrators out of their private lives; today's college kids are calling for more control over their lives. "It's a nightmare, an outrage, and none of the faculty have fought back. [...] They pretend to be leftists, they're pygmys; they are passive worms; not to fight back against the bureaucrats," says Paglia.....To Read More....

My Take - And who created these "leftist" pygmys?  Leftist radicals like her, Bill Ayers and violent black radicals back in the 60's who intimidated these clowns into giving it to leftism via fear and intimidation.  Those who took over are equally cowardly....so why wouldn't you think they'd merely go along to get along.  They're not leaders....they're Judas goats with bells around their necks leading the herd to slaughter. 

Let's try and get this once and for all.  No one.....and mean no one....has a "right" to higher education.  We need to get rid of all the student loan programs and grants to institutions of higher learing and make them all self funding.  After that....everything will fall into place.....and a whole lot of insidously stupid institutions will go out of business and these stupid professors along with their stupid students will go out and get productive jobs that will benefit society they can actually do....like saying, "Welcome to McDonalds".
