University of Pyongyang ... errr ... Delaware

I missed this controversy until it was over, but the University of Delaware, under pressure from the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, has formally shut down a "residential life" program intended to force students to adopt "acceptable" ideological positions on a range of issues. The program required group meetings, one-on-one sessions, formal reports on the results of those sessions and mandatory displays of ideological conformity and participation in pre-determined political activism.

Huh?

The Philadelphia Inquirer ran a thorough article on how the program worked, and the reactions it evoked.

I strongly suspect that my son is going to get himself expelled from college when he's old enough to attend. And I'll be all the prouder of him for it.
