Mod I had to Google what this was talking about, and now I am just PISSED.
Read the Huffington Post story on the Florida governor who wanted to get rid of Anthropology in FL. universities HERE.
Does anyone know what has become of his comments? Has he done anything?
“If we eliminate the liberal arts and humanities from public university curricula, we will produce a generation of uncritical technocrats who will have lost their sense of wonder, their feeling of intellectual passion and their capacity to dream about life beyond the boundaries of the limited good. In such a passionless and unimaginative space, we will lose our capacity to think, grow and reconfigure a rapidly changing world.”
