And this makes our graduates more competitive in what - exactly?

This, from Independent Women's Forum via John Miller at The Corner, is almost laughable if it wasn't possible:

"'A Gender and Sexuality requirement will create new dialogues, challenge hegemonic discourse, break taboos and stigmas, and open up realms of communication between all students, states the student's proposal, slowly being circulated among...faculty members. The plan would incorporate a wide swathe of issues, from classes on 'Hollywood Masculinity' to those on gender and health.'

As Erin writes:

'In other words, this is a course requirement that would force all UM students to undergo a mandatory process of political consciousness-raising.'"

This "enlightened" proposal is from the students at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
