Universities

The current controversy surround Ivy league schools, has brought attention to the fact that somewhere along the way, these schools moved from teaching students how to think to teaching them what to think. The foundation of this new thinking is based on the premise that the world today is divided into two groups, the oppressors and the oppressed. While there are many examples of this dichotomy the most talked about is the oppression by white skinned people over those with brown skin. This movement began in the late 1960’s at the university level and over the past 60 years has moved into primary and high schools. It was an attempt to right past wrongs and thus started with good intentions but in time, like many things, moved further and today many people feel it has gone too far. Thus, the current controversy.
