University of Delaware Responds to Expose'

The University of Delaware came under attack this week from conservatives for hate-filled racist views they promote through their "residence life educational program".

I wont go into detail about the program except to say that it promotes the view that all white people are racists and that this view must be accepted by the student. The whole fire.org article is here.

The University of Delaware has responded by lying through their teeth. Here's a few excerpts:

"Far from stifling free speech, the residential life educational program seeks to encourage free speech."

"Students in residence halls are not forced to participate, and certainly are not forced to agree with any particular point of view."

"The residential life educational program, which has been developed with the express intent of helping students think critically and analytically, has had the input of student leaders, faculty and administrators and is continually assessed through feedback from individuals and through focus groups."

Hey, we all love free speech, but using our tax dollars to teach kids that all white people are racist through a "educational program" smacks of Stalinism.
