Thomas Lifson "In the politically correct hothouse of an elite university campus, all sorts of bizarre theories and beliefs flourish. Did you know that grammar is racist? That's the gist of a kerfuffle currently playing out at UCLA, the taxpayer-funded institution that is one of America's most prominent research universities, and a global brand name (UCLA-licensed tee shirts and other merchandise are wildly popular overseas -- scores of of dedicated UCLA merchandise stores and departments exist in Japanese, South Korean and Chinese malls and department stores and bring in substantial royalties to the university)."
"You see, by highlighting spelling and punctuation errors, the professor is contributing to an "unsafe climate for students of colour." Reminding students of the basic rules of English apparently helps to create "a hostile and toxic environment" in Professor Rust's classroom. Such are the mental and emotional traumas of the modern grad school intellectual.' "
....
"These UCLA grad students, so convinced that they are victims and that everything is stacked against them really ought to travel to China and talk to some people their own age, looking at how they live, how hard they study, and what they are willing to do in order to make it to the privileged life lived by the grievance mongers on the idyllic campus in West Los Angeles."

British School Threatens to Label 8 Year-olds as Racists if They Miss Required Islam Workshop "Parents were ordered to send their children to a workshop on Islam or have them labelled as racist for the rest of their school career.
"They were sent a letter warning that the primary school pupils would have a ‘racial discrimination note’ put on their records if they did not go.
"Families were told to pay £5 per child for the Explore Islam trip next Wednesday to Staffordshire University, which would involve Year 4 and Year 6 children being shown Islamic artefacts.
" ‘All absences on this day will be investigated for their credibility and will only be sanctioned with a GP sick note.’"

O, Canada! School Tells Mom Her Homemade Lunches are Illegal "A mom who thought she was properly parenting by sending her two young kids to school with a homemade, whole-food lunch was shocked to find a penalty note from school officials informing her that the lunch of roast beef, potatoes, carrots, oranges and milk she provided was “unbalanced” and therefore had to be supplemented with Ritz crackers.
"She was also fined $10." Life under liberals.
