Incredible, ultra PC on campus

The Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE) reports:

The University of Delaware subjects students in its residence halls to a shocking program of ideological reeducation that is referred to in the university’s own materials as a “treatment” for students’ incorrect attitudes and beliefs. The Orwellian program requires the approximately 7,000 students in Delaware’s residence halls to adopt highly specific university-approved views on issues ranging from politics to race, sexuality, sociology, moral philosophy, and environmentalism. FIRE is calling for the total dismantling of the program, which is a flagrant violation of students’ rights to freedom of conscience and freedom from compelled speech.

Among the beliefs that students must subscribe to is that racism is a function of privilege and white skin color, that all whites in the U.S. are racists, and that only whites are racists. It sounds though the University of Delaware has been taken over by black radicals.

Update: At lunch today I said to a friend that the University of Delaware student propaganda program was so extreme that it would be thrown out. Right after lunch, I received an e-mail informing me that the president of the University has suspended the program.
