These are actual required classes and is how administration enforces policy.
Most people are taking their ideas of how uni politics were 10-20 years ago. But things have changed. Psuedo-woke Twitter is unfortunately real people, and they have jobs in government.
On top of this:
Universities act as their own courts, they can and will eject students for heresay claims. No due process.
Universities are textbook dictatorships. The students cannot vote for whom makes the rules. Yet they are directly affected.
Their costs and spending have risen dramatically over time. They argue this is because of less government aid - it's really because they don't control spending. They will overspend on cafeteria decor and luxurious dorms. Politically motivated programs that students are forced to pay for.
Why on earth would any young man go into that when there's plenty of trade roles hiring? Make good money, start a family, own your own life.
I can speak a little towards that. I was a student member of my university's disciplinary board.
No due process and no fairness for the accused.
I highly recommend anyone who is requested to go to one, to hire a lawyer.

Weren't there well known cases where they refused to allow the accused's lawyer to participate in the process. Seems like the main use of the lawyer might be to (expensively) sue the school in real court, or at least threaten to do so.
The challenge there is that with more women getting a degree and having higher income, and less willing to date down, having a trades job and income is no guarantee you’ll be able to find a willing partner to start a family with.

A lot of people, if not the majority (because it's mainstream now), don't realize we no longer live in a society with liberal values of truth, freedom, justice, and equality. We've entered a postmodern era, where everything is a power game, everyone must fit in either oppressor or oppressed, and these categories are based on immutable traits that you cannot change. Quite the irony...
It will be interesting to see what happens as the pendulum continues its over-corrective course. Will there be a long-delayed reckoning like with China's preference for boys and the one child policy? I don't expect the ideologues who are encouraging the current trajectory will be around to pay the price for it.
I think I missed that history class. When was society ever truthful, free, equal, just?
I have a value of being fit and healthy.
Sounds like a messed up system.
Based on Caltech (no affirmative action by own decision) and Berkeley and UCLA (no affirmative action by elected proposition, although many and varied means are used to attempt to bypass the restriction), elite universities will be "only" about 30-40% Asian without affirmative action.
Though I suppose that would be odd; most people are not intelligent nor are they logical.
That's fine, I was pretty odd myself at 18.
