Mike Adams wants to eliminate from the univerisity all majors ending in the term “studies”. He is a brave man. However, he does not go far enough.
In the past, I’ve gotten myself in hot water for suggesting that the African American Center, LGBTQIA Center, Women’s Center, and El Centro Hispano be shut down in order to ease our current state budget crisis. But, today, I propose that we go further by eliminating all academic majors and minors ending with the word “studies.”
This is not meant to be prejudicial – although, having little else to do, the Arrogant American Centers will try to make it so. Let it be known that I propose eliminating more than just Arrogant American and Hyphenated American Studies. I also want to do away with Communication Studies, Environmental Studies, Liberal Studies, Women’s Studies, and Gay and Lesbian Studies. And I want the cuts to be implemented across our sixteen-campus system.

We also need to eliminate all boutique commissions and departments. The Ministry for Women, the Arts, Maori Affairs (Te Puni Kokari), Disabilities. The Mental Health Commission. The Families Commission. The Human Rights Commission. For it is not the role of the government to have its own advocacy services, or to produce a series of star chambers or to tell me what to think, or how to act.
The government is to keep the peace, honour the Queen, and preserve the Nation. So… Roger does not go far enough. We need to remove those unaccountable quasi bureaucracies that insist that the hyphenated issues take precedence over the common good.
