The universities deceive when they say they have no agenda other than to open minds.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
For one, thing, the media are dominated by the irreligious. So are universities.
Students now arrive at the university ignorant and cynical about our political heritage, lacking the wherewithal to be either inspired by it or seriously critical of it.
In general, higher education does not know how to speak for its interests. It offers a stance that is defensive, cowardly and likely to be ineffective.
University politics are vicious precisely because the stakes are so small.
Universities are the cathedrals of the modern age. They shouldn't have to justify their existence by utilitarian criteria.
The goal of higher education should be to champion the airing of all honest viewpoints. Nothing less is acceptable.
A university is not a political party, and an education is not an indoctrination.
Universities should be safe havens where ruthless examination of realities will not be distorted by the aim to please or inhibited by the risk of displeasure.
When someone is trying to interpret something for you, they always have an agenda.
Education isn't part of my agenda, it is my agenda.
