Your tax dollars at work!

Yeah i mean its not challenging to challenge a standard that has been challenged a million times outside of for practice

Letalone be considered great

Yeah, I'm big on the idea of a return to a certain degree of traditionalism in the academic system

Get the standards back.

Its a cycle

Back and forth in an eternal stuggle

But at this point yeeeeeeeah they need to come back in terms of alot of humanities

Music i think is the only one that has really stayed the path of tradition

In terms of academics. Even the newer sort of music classes are about well established traditional standards (at least in modern day with rock and pop classes and degrees becoming a thing)

Its great because the musical equivalent of postmodernism is actually extremely well defined in terms of rules that have been established and codified in tradition

Unlike its visual art counterpart

I mean, you'll read classic literature in the English department, but the ultimate goal is always to reach deconstruction and the research is entirely driven by SocJus-type trends.

Actually, that's not quite accurate.

Well not that postmodernism doesnt have a sort of structure

Most of the classic books have been replaced. But there's enough they'll claim they respect the classic canon.

Its just more a negative sort of structure. In the sense of whats left

Have you guys seen the postmodern generator

Yeah i have a bud doing an english literature/education double major at the uni iblive by

Yes

it generates papers it's hilarious

XD yeah its pretty funny

A student once got a paper peer reviewed, called "The conceptual penis"

it directly cited the post modern generator

And hes told me the horror stories of his SocJus class and the approach of most of his teachers

XD yeah ive seen that lol

One of my cousins had to take a "Feminist Poetry" class as a gen-ed requirement

Phallogocentrism strikes again!!!

She hated it, thank goodness

XD praise kuthuluuuu

Yeah, I *really* want to clean up the unis. The humanities have no purpose if they are only going to serve as a recruiting grounds for activists.

If there's no chance of getting a profitable job from a degree, or teaching something meaningful (because music is actually important, imo), then the degree should be scrapped

Yeah or to propagate fucking propaganda and misinformation

XD yeah good u threw that in for music or else thered be no need for music degrees lol

Good luck trying to find a music job out of a UNI lol its fucking hard

Well, that and my mother did music education for her first degree

She's told every one of her students to pursue a second degree alongside music

Better spend that time trying to find one than spend it doing a degree if you dont intend on working in a school of sorts

Wise lady

Unfortunately, her students haven't been so wise, historically.

Most haven't taken her advice
