White privilege courses now mandated at more colleges

On April 5, professors at Bates College in Maine voted to mandate that students complete a new set of classes on “Race, Power, Privilege, and Colonialism.” Students who do not take the class will not allowed to graduate. Similarly, Northern Arizona University now requires students to take four diversity courses to graduate, all rooted in left-wing “critical theory.”

This is part of a larger trend, in which “schools are making it harder to focus on academic subjects such as economics, history, math, and science, by forcing students to waste time taking classes that indoctrinate them in left-wing ideology, such as ‘critical theory”’ or critical race theory,” according to a former Education Department lawyer.

Of the two “Race, Power, Privilege, and Colonialism,” courses, one must be United States-focused and will be designated as “RPPC US,” the other will target international affairs and will be designated “RPPC I.”
