What they are teaching in college nowadays

I am semi-retired but still work at a major university. What I see around me is herd mentality, correctness ad nauseum, trend following, and non-reliance on yourself. Count on .gov and .com to handle your life. Men, especially anglo, are evil and are responsible for all our problems. Personal firearms need to go away. The POTUS is the enemy. Criminals are a victim of environment and need to be understood, not punished.
And like always, the pendulum swings from one extreme to the other.

But, also like always, truth lies in between.

The World as it is today won’t be the same as it it is tomorrow. Learning to think and adapt is the best you can ever get from higher education. The specific thoughts and conclusions are irrelevant...solid logical thought processes are the only goal.

Get those right, and you are set for what the World will throw at you for the rest of your life.
