True story: I was sitting in a "dining hall" (can't call it a cafeteria anymore) at my original alma mater of Western Michigan University my freshman year chatting with a friend from my "residence hall" (because you can't say "dorm" anymore.). One of his SJW friends who "identifies" as Trans-species, human-to-feline, threw a fit when I used the term "bitch" to describe an unrelated person who was a spiteful bitch.

"You just used a sexist slur that's the same as calling a Black person a n***!"

Although I'll always miss WMU and am still sad that's not where I'll finish my degree, I sure as hell don't miss the SJWs and misandrists and made-up, self-proclaimed "minority statuses" that were there.

Many people go to college and come out as liberals. I went into college as a non-judgmental liberal and ended up being dragged to the center. I just wish more people in society were willing to say to those people that your little "species identity" is the most ridiculous thing we've ever heard of.

I have gotten more Conservative in my one year in  college so far

They aren't. They're promoting it, but some people are just not comfortable with hearing alternative points of view.

If they can't hear different points of view, they don't belong in college. This is what happens when you bring the lowest of the low into prestigious institutions. Unqualified morons. And they aren't studying engineering. Useless majors like Women's and Men's Studies, etc. I don't see what that major can provide in terms of a paycheck.

It's spreading all over the Western world. A Canadian American Trump supporter wore the hat and a SJW called it "unsafe". How foolish. She thinks her little bubble revolves around her and her type. Wonder what job she'll get in the future?

I dont think government should fund those useless majors at all . Those funding should go to degrees or technical programs what actually gets people a good paying job

How many people with actual "gender studies" majors are there? And you do realize that, outside of just engineering, both private corporations and the government require managers, administrators, social analysts, cultural and regional experts, and so on--positions where the workforce is not reaped from a campus engineering building, right?

Business Majors are very useful

Maybe just not fund programs that cause people to be unemployed or pay low?

Like instead of funding degrees which dont get people a good paying job, they should fund trade schools , and fund infrastructure projects, both which can result in good paying jobs

Lol

People with accounting, finance , marketing, or business admin degrees mostly get high paying jobs.
