Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

    Information on that slide is concerning, but I think you're giving the professor too much credit....

    Entry level course material is prepared by indentured servants of research academia.... Grad students. Same for labs.

    Profs will take over the material in the 3XX/4XX range...

    Does white supremacy include hating Injuns? Are Injuns even considered people of color (red)?

    Do white people shed a tear when someone litters on the interstate? Didn't think so.

    "Society is oversensitive and makes too much out of everything!!!!!! ... ... ... ...unless I'm offended, then I get righteous indignation, but THAT'S DIFFERENT!!"

    For fuck's sake... this is pretty much this site's equivalent of the LPT going ham on the tweets of Husky players about being OKGs.

    It reminds of a time in 2004 or 2005 when I was down in the media area next to Hec Ed Pavilion. I had just completed an interview and was shooting the breeze with a starter on the UW football team, a really nice kid. He was telling me about some of his courses. I wish I could remember the specific course, but he said "I never realized just how much the black man is continuing to be oppressed by society until I took this class."

    Did you get a big belly laugh?

    Maybe the professor is trying to incite discussion. Maybe this is a student presentation. Maybe this is a presentation on biased perspectives. Taking this image at face value without any context may or may not be representative indicative of what is going on...

    with the exception of bullet #4, the other stuff is going to be presented, directly or indirectly, at any institution of higher learning not named Oral Roberts University or the like.

    now, describing capitalism as a zero/sum, winner/loser game is ridiculous. that would NEVER happen at Middlebury.

    listen, b4 you poast again on the academies, check in with me furst. I've got that shit wired the fuck down.

    I can think of a couple posters fucktards here who think #4 is accurate.
    indeed. there are probably more in the closet.
