There are a lot of items here.
Please scan the headers to locate ones of interest to you. I promise
you these are factual...I do not make up anything shared with you.
While the below items mostly cover negative issues not all educational
institutions fit the profile discussed. But unfortunately far too many
do. The mainstream media does not report much on the state of serious
problems that in fact plague so many of our government controlled
public schools and dysfunction that resides in so many of our colleges
and universities. So, I have chosen to share with you some of the items
I have run across.
This item is right on and sets
the stage for the ones that follow. It is a very good synopsis of the
plight of modern education...which in many cases is mindlessness wasting
of student's minds. Please read. Quote: "In short, the people in
charge of education take a wrecking ball to K-12 and the next
generation. There are scores of examples of systematic razing. It's
hard to say that any particular one is the worst, because all are
interconnected and reinforce each other." And, "Almost every few days,
there are articles on the internet about why schools are bad and how
they can be improved. The bizarre part (for me) is that the writers
typically assume that the Education Establishment actually wants to do a
good job but, inexplicably, can't quite figure out how. With this
premise, nothing makes sense. Could so-called experts be so
incompetent? I don't think so. If you start with the assumption that
they are deliberately razing content and kids, then everything makes
sense." http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2015/11/department_of_education_you_raise_em_we_raze_em.html
Professor
Mike Adams takes on and squashes a sanctimonious group of
fellow university professors espousing their commitment to educational
diversity and inclusion. Quote: "I received your recent email on
educational inclusiveness and diversity with great interest. I have
written three books, spoken on 88 university campuses, and written
approximately 1000 columns on the subject in the last 13 years. This was
the first time I’ve ever been contacted by your organization.
Therefore, I assumed you were writing about something important and that
you had something meaningful and intelligent to say. Unfortunately,
after reading your short correspondence, I realize that I was mistaken
on both counts. That’s a harsh assessment so please allow me to
explain:"

This item examines the subject
of why black teachers are leaving their positions. Quote: "These higher
quit rates appear to stem from poor working conditions, such as a “lack
of autonomy” and little “input into school decisions.” In other words,
the suffocating system created by teachers’ unions and politicians and
bureaucrats and ivory tower educational theorists isn’t much fun to
teach within." http://townhall.com/columnists/pauljacob/2015/09/20/fleeing-from-diversity-n2054370/page/full
And, it is sad indeed when good teachers quit because of the one size
fits all Washington bureaucracy's inane regulations and coercive
tactics. http://conservativetribune.com/young-teacher-epic-letter/?
Quote: "The list is too long to
quickly catalog. Here are just a few. Christmas is now Winter Recess and
Easter is Spring Break. Many schools have banned any Halloween
activities entirely. Competitive sports are banned in many primary
schools in favor of team efforts where “everyone” wins. Dodge ball is
disappearing from playgrounds. Children are suspended for nibbling a pop
tart into a gun shape. Man caused climate change is presented as fact.
Social Studies texts list any and all wrongs committed by the United
States, but portray Islam in favorable terms. Students can gain access
to birth control without parental notification. White privilege is now
presented in a way to make white students feel guilty about their race.
Again, the list of how liberal/progressive policies are used to
indoctrinate public school students is terrifyingly long and
growing." http://eaglerising.com/30542/whats-wrong-with-liberals-blame-public-education/
Think the US literacy rate is
good? Failing education and a collapsing culture are killing literacy.
Check this out. Quote: "Thomas Jefferson said, “Educate and inform the whole mass of the people…They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty.” I
look about and see America on the downslide with our liberties being
the first things to go over the proverbial cliff. Wise advice abounds
but if only 13% of our voting-age citizens can read, evaluate, and act
upon complex explanations and suggestions, it is no wonder that we are
losing both our liberties and our country." https://www.lewrockwell.com/2016/02/linda-schrock-taylor/schools-let-us/
Quote: "A recent report
found that American public schools were wasting millions to train their
teachers about… WHITE PRIVILEGE. A San Francisco based education
consulting company by the name of Pacific Educational Group (PEG) has
been working with over 100 different local school districts in an effort
to train teachers through white guilt. The company has made its money
through convincing school districts that our system of education is
biased against minority students and that it unfairly benefits white
students. However, the company tells its customers that not all is lost
because they offer a training course that will help the local districts
“fix” the problem. Sadly, the message that PEG sells is one rife with
racism, excuse-making, blame-casting and radically ‘progressive’
philosophies. As an example, at their national conferences over the last
few years, their core speakers have been a veritable “Who’s Who” of
radical liberal supporters, of the infamous, terrorist Bill Ayers." http://eaglerising.com/30853/school-districts-spend-millions-to-train-teachers-about-white-privilege/
This item confirms what many of
us have been saying. No wonder Bernie has so much support from
university students. Indoctrination at American colleges and
universities has been ongoing for a long time. http://www.thecollegefix.com/post/26066/
Quote: "While it is rightly so
that most Americans are focused on the presidential election at this
moment, the real battle ground to fight for America's future is in the
classrooms. If we want to make America great again, we need to pay
attention to what's being taught to our youth, how they are being taught
and push back against the progressive indoctrination." http://townhall.com/columnists/helenraleigh/2016/02/13/searching-for-an-explanation-for-bernies-rising-look-no-further-than-classrooms-n2118914/page/full
What does this tell you? 91%
of Harvard professors are leftists/progressives. This proves that that
they care little for honesty, decency, truth, justice, rule of law,
sound economics, civil discourse, fair play, equality for all and they
must agree that our country needs to be destroyed. Leftist/progressive
propaganda has been the nature of instruction in colleges and
universities for many years now. How they can think what they think is
good and wholesome is beyond me. http://www.thecollegefix.com/post/26185/
