Piled Higher and Deeper

My roommate is in the Masters of Education program here at UCLA, and from what he tells me, it's not really worth much. Two days ago, they played a game where they had to chose one of four animals by going to a corner of the room. Then they had to say how they were like the animal, and how they could interact with all the other animals. Today they made a poster of their feelings. Imagine teaching a group of inner city gangsters how to paint by numbers.

The REALLY BIG THEME of UCLA is this idea of social justice. When asked to define it, the faculty immediately refer you to antiracism and multiculturalism.

One sad thing, due to the number of very angry individuals in his class, he couldn't empirically point out that 1) The class is ethnically composed of approximately 50% caucasian and 50% asian and 2) The class is approximately 15% male.
