More Liberal Brainwashing At The University

THE STORIES keep trickling out. About the astonishing culture of liberal postmodernism in the university. About how it is enforced with the threat of shame and the power of employment. Here is the latest installment from a Resident Assistant at a Catholic university somewhere in America, “Athena Kerry.”

“Athena” tells of the hiring process she went through to become a Resident Assistant at a residence hall. The applicants were invited to design a residence hall. A couple of design requirements tipped off the agenda.

How do you address the needs of non-Christian students who may need worship space? and
How would you encourage any students who may not support GLBTQA to become "persons of care"?

Well now. Imagine the powers at any university ever giving a single thought to the needs of conservative Christian students for worship space. Why the very idea! Our universities have spent the last half-century erecting every possible barrier they can imagine to marginalize Christianity at the university. And now they are concerned about “non-Christian students who may need worship space?”

The RAs don’t like it, but they have been effectively cowed.

The few of us RAs that have banded together—all female, the men say nothing, perhaps because many are themselves gay—quietly whisper "hypocrisy" in back corners of basement apartments. But any more than that threatens our employment.

Perhaps the men say nothing because they have taken the advice given to the Roman emperor Claudius by his trusted friend in Robert Graves’s I, Claudius. “Trust No-one! Not even me!” Certainly trust no-one at the university. You never know when they might be induced to inform upon you.

Imagine the Pulitzers, the fame, the patents of nobility that would be trotted out for a liberal that exposed such goings-on at a conservative university or at a big corporation!
