The United States is falling further and further behind when it comes to global education rankings and Americans have been stressing over how to improve education in the country. Donald Trump’s new Education Secretary, Betsy DeVos, wants to implement greater school choice, supported by most conservatives. Liberals, on the other hand, want to lower standards […]

It’s a sure sign that the world has gone crazy when wearing red, white and blue in the United States is seen as a sign of racism. Yet that’s exactly what happened when students at one Iowa high school attended a basketball game wearing patriotic colors. The Valley High School basketball team was playing the […]

You can try to jump higher, but that’s hard. It’s easier to just lower the bar. The moonbattery-addled state of New York continues to embrace decline: The state Board of Regents will likely vote early next week on whether to ax the Academic Literacy Skills Test, one of four exams that teacher wannabes have to […]

If it seems that there are no standards at all for teachers anymore, and that firing them for virtually any outrage is impossible, don’t assign all the blame to left-wing teachers unions and left-wing educrats. Left-wing judges also make their mark on education: At the heart of the troubling trend is a legal standard that […]

People support authoritarian measures because they mistakenly believe they will be the one wearing the boot stamping a human face. In reality, someone else wears the boot. That’s why when free speech dies, everyone suffers. The Washington Examiner’s Adam Steinbaugh reports on campus complaints of offensive speech: I surveyed more than 230 such reporting systems […]

Imagine a student KKK group demanding a special space on campus where no blacks are allowed, so it could scheme against blacks without them learning what it is up to. Outrageous, right? Yet we barely bat an eye at this: A student activist group at the University of Michigan [Students4Justice] is demanding campus officials provide […]

Interestingly, activists ostensibly devoted to fighting censorship are attacking a bill written to allow science teachers to question official dogma: The National Coalition Against Censorship and other organizations committed to defending First Amendment rights in schools are objecting to a South Dakota bill deemed by critics to threaten educational standards in science education, particularly in […]

We must be ever vigilant against racism, because it is everywhere. Now it comes to light that even grammar is racist: An “antiracist” poster in a college writing center insists American grammar is “racist” and an “unjust language structure,” promising to prioritize rhetoric over “grammatical ‘correctness.’” The poster, written by the director, staff, and tutors […]

The student government at the University of Wisconsin-Madison insists that black students be provided with free tuition and housing at others’ expense. This outlandish demand was issued partially on the grounds that blacks were denied educational opportunities during slavery, which ended many generations ago. Now non-blacks are to be the slaves, working to provide for […]

You all can thank the liberal socialistic self-entitlement thinking of basket-cases like Bernie Sanders and also the brainwashing of your child by government public schools for the snowflake attitude of college students today. A very large portion of my disdain for the general college student is the belief that they are entitled to a free […]

Democrats have fought Betsy DeVos’ appointment as head of the Department of Education tooth and nail. They argued that she was unqualified, slammed her for donating money to Republicans and tried to prevent the vote from taking place. But it didn’t work — DeVos was still confirmed. And liberals lost their minds. The vote to […]

Microaggressions and white privilege can be difficult to detect. Fortunately, our institutions of higher learning provide the training necessary: A class to be offered this spring at Ohio State University is an identity politics-based course that in large part is focused on teaching students how to detect microaggressions and white privilege. The course is dedicated […]

It appears that flyers plastering the University of Kansas that depict anarcho-capitalism and the slogan “Make America Great Again” as coded language for Nazism have been traced to their source — the university’s own School of Social Welfare: The flyers in question were found throughout campus Tuesday, including in Strong Hall and Twente Hall, and […]

Parents send their children to school to get an education. But they were shocked when they discovered what their teenagers were being taught at Pennridge High School in Pennsylvania. The students were given math homework that included questions about sexual abuse and prostitution, among other insanely offensive topics. The school was forced to apologize after […]

Let’s review, shall we? This is from November of 2015, but is one of the best examples of a slap down of student social justice warriors I have ever read. It’s also a reminder why someone like President-elect Trump was just elected. People are sick to death of snowflakes who feel they have a right […]

Taxpayer-supported University of Wisconsin–Madison continues to wage jihad against what it means to be a man: The UW Men’s Project is a six-week program open only to men-identified students that kicks off with an overnight retreat where the group or groups will talk about what “masculinity” means to them. Limiting anything to men would be […]

It should come as no surprise that Islamic colonists have taken to hate hoaxes like ducks to a pond. Devotion to an ideology that calls for targeting the innocent and helpless for terror attacks requires lacking a meaningful concept of shame. Also, deception is baked right into the cult; the term for lying to advance […]
