PC Classic

Richard Zeller taught for 25 years in the sociology department at Bowling Green State University. But now he's quitting -- in protest.

Why? Because colleagues in his department wouldn't let him teach a course on "political correctness" (PC) that included
books critical of campus speech codes, affirmative action, and other "politically correct"-related positions.

Professors in other departments also supported the decision not to let Zeller offer the course. Indeed, in what is surely
one of the classic PC quotes ever uttered, Kathleen Dixon, the director of the women's studies department, told a local newspaper:
"We forbid any course that says we restrict free speech."

Figures, don't dare tell us were wrong. PC all the way. Remind me not to go there for any schooling.
