Destructive Colleges

"Most Americans are not aware how morally & intellectually destructive American colleges--and, increasingly, high schools & even elementary schools--have become. So, they spend tens of thousands of after-tax dollars to end their son & daughters to college. But today, to send your child to college is to play Russian roulette with their values. There is a good chance your child will return from college alienated from you, from America, from Western civilization & from whatever expression of any Bible-based religion in which you raised your child." [Dennis Prager, Townhall, 5/21]

"'Like' is in our language like a weed. I know young people who cannot go five words--not five words without 'like.' Parodying this, Barbara J. Fields, the Columbia University historian, wrote, 'Jesus, like, wept.'"  [Jay Nordlinger, National Review Online, 5/24]
