*ALTERNATIVE REFORM PROPOSAL*
*1. Restrict university debt milling by instituting a maximum course load/degree. No more taking 20 elective classes for 1 course of study
2. Eliminate Affirmative Action in admissions and testing practices
3. Remove federal/state funding from colleges unless their alumni have a given successful employment rate in their fields of study
4. Remove federal/state funding from colleges found to be hosting courses that are antithetical to American social/cultural unity, or at least defund those courses
5. Initiate an investigation into political bias in hiring/tenuring practices in post-secondary education*

ok here is something that will set the chat on fire, is it me or is Dissenter fast becoming an echo chamber? because often all i see are different ways of saying "fuck the left" "civil war now" and "<insert women/minority here> should not have the right to vote", unless i'm looking the wrong way i really don't see many actual comment debates on Dissenter between the both sides and with each passing day it looks more and more like the echo chamber's we see in tumblr except its a right wing one

(btw please prove me wrong)

I’ve already partially written a manifesto (non pew pew) that covers education.
I could ctrl c ctrl v.

schools should be Apolitical.

period

Impossible

again....

I wish they could

I really do

not impossible

But I don’t think it’s possible

we did it for a LONG time

Pretty impossible, since history especially cannot be apolitical

It is the effort that matters, nothing is perfect

No, we didn’t. For a long time we all agreed on the ideology being taught.

That’s not the same as saying no ideology was being taught.

not in MY country

Ur USA, yeah?

You can achieve something approaching it on a small scale, but to scale it up to fit the American public education needs? And maintain that standard across the whole population?
No way. It's logistically impractical

USA, yes. and 'politics' is NOT 'ideology'

that's a false diacotomy

Politics is ideological in most of the population though

Rational politics is the exception, not the rule

we are a Democratic Republic. WE have elections. Any talk of candidates or who should be elected should be verboten

hence 'apolitical'

the USA is more pure republic than Democratic Republic

tangential

also @Scale_e, one way to counter bias is to ensure each person can recite BOTH sides of an argument as a qualification

@ManAnimal that doesn't make education apolitical, it just means it isn't biased in contemporary politics. These are two very different standards to uphold.

then i am confused as to your intent or rather you are confused at my intent when i suggest schools should be apolitical

You're just speaking too broadly
Obviously everyone agrees that schools shouldn't tell students how to vote, but there's going to be political ideas injected into the education even without that.

the intent is to insure that children aren't used as protestors or prevent the school of being used as a bully pulpit

Yeah, school-backed activism is cancer

avoiding contempoary politics acheives that end

Well not really, because history can't be taught without politically predisposing children to certain ideas.

Because history itself cannot be apolitical

again, nothing about that is contemporary
