Students at Eastern Michigan U. Want ‘Black Studies’ Incorporated Into Every Major
These campus protesters sure seem rational, don’t they?

Eastern Michigan U. students want ‘Black Studies’ incorporated into every major
The latest nuttery from black student groups across American campuses comes from Eastern Michigan University where, among many other things, (black) students want “black studies” to be part of every major’s field of study.
EMU student Darius Simpson said at the Institutional Racism in Higher Education Forum that this is what African American students at the school “deserve as equals in society.”
No word yet from physics professors on how they plan to restructure their lessons and studies. Perhaps discuss how some quarks are “oppressed” by others in the sub-atomic realm …?
While getting the entire room involved, he [Simpson] said that this event was solely focusing on racism towards African Americans and spoke about the inequalities in educational and academic options as well as what lacks in women’s health when it comes to the black community.
He gave an entire list of demands to the room but targeted it at the school as a whole. He made it very clear the demands were not going to be changed in any way because it would compromise the effects of them.
— We demand that the amount of black faculty should match the amount of black students. Excluding all faculty in the Africology department. Meaning the ratio needs to match without including the black faculty in that department.
— We demand all students should take a general education race, ethnicity, and racism course.
— We demand a black resource center under the umbrella of the Center for Multicultural Affairs.
— We demand Annual cultural competency for all faculty and staff including DPS.

I demand that all black students who are admitted to any college must have SAT and other scores that are equivalent to their peers.
C’mon, guys, man up and study.
Not surprising. One sees social justice and climate change pushed into much of the curriculum now too. Really. Such is common core or IB.
Parents, I strongly urge you to check out your child’s text books (if they still have them- much of what they do is without a textbook- either on computer device or handouts) and whatever they bring home.
Black studies in engineering?? Chemistry?? Biology?? Well, be careful, since biochemistry and physiology might (has already) discover(ed) differences among the races. Physics?? Well, quarks have color, but none of the colors are black, nor white, nor brown, nor yellow, but there are red quarks. Math?? Well, in the mid-70s a math professor teaching honors calculus was heard to say, “When you integrate, everything gets better.”, but he was referring to the mathematical process of integrating an equation – no color there. And there is such a thing as black humor, but it is not what many suppose it might be. Is there a comedy performance major at EMU, or is the comedy performance going to be the actions the EMU Administration might take?
What annoys me is this is NOT coming from students.
These students don’t arrive thinking this way. This is purely from their professors and their SJW wet dream of a never ending, always expanding pot of money and power.
