"Human Relations" 101... N.J. High Schoolers get a taste..

Remember the course in college entitled, "Human Relations?" It was a required course for graduation for all liberal arts majors (i.e., Fed 385 at UW-Eau Claire). Actually, the Course title of Human Relations was just code for gauntlet for liberal indoctrinations:

385 /585 Social Foundations: Human Relations
3 crs (3-1). F, Sp, Su.
Admission to School of Education required
CD3
School psychology, CDIS and nursing majors may also enroll
Students will examine cultural contributions of racial, ethnic, cultural, gender, and economic groups. They will also examine forces of discrimination and racism on individuals, society, and education and analyze practices that promote dignity, justice, and equality.

When taking the course, we were treated to a barrage of far-left whacko speakers, with one consistent message: Minorities and women, good. White males, bad. We were constantly admonished on how we needed to feel guilty for past wrongs committed by our ancestors, even though our ancestors may not have even been around when said transgressions took place.

Well it just so happens that students at Paul VI High School in South Jersey were treated to similar fare when N.J. Secretary of State Regina Thomas browbeated the students:

Tensions have been building up at Paul VI High School since Thomas' speech on racial justice last week.


Many students and faculty members walked out of the speech offended. They said that she lambasted one student for not knowing his black history and that she insinuated that the students were racist.

"It's, like, really crazy right now. Teachers are just standing by the doors. Kids are trying to get out. Kids are in the hallway, they won't go to class," one female student said.
With a Secretary of State like that, who needs Ward Churchill.. or for that matter, Wes Craven? However, to all the kids at Paul VI High school who are college bound, The Ice Palace gives some sage advice borne of experience: "Get used to it"
