Why not? There's a real need for kindergarten teachers
/For just $83,140 (per year) Princeton will train your son to be a drag queen
… The College Fix reported Thursday that Princeton has launched a “new ‘Drag University’ program” that purports to “train students in the ‘artform.’” Do parents send their children to Princeton for this? If there are any parents out there (and I’m sure there are, complete with peeling Bernie stickers on their Volvos) who would be pleased and proud, nay, thrilled, if their sons became drag queens), there are cheaper ways to accomplish this than plunking down $83,140 to get him or her or xer or whatever a degree from Princeton.
… In line with that mission, Princeton’s Drag University is a full-year program that will “teach about the history of drag, as well as the art form of drag. Sessions will be taught by local drag performers, on-campus partners who know their way around machines, and other students. This program is open to undergraduate and graduate students. The first 8 applicants who commit to the entire curriculum and attend orientation will get a scholarship to cover costs of supplies.”
Time is a limited commodity, and a college student has just four years to acquire knowledge, so squandering that brief time on courses in queer liberation, feminist literature, America the oppressor courses and Anti-racisim physics means time taken away from studying philosophy, great literature, western civilization, and objective science. I suspect that none of those ares of study are still available at Princeton anyway, so I guess there’s no loss here, but it seems a shame.
