"Harvard endows chair on gay studies; Professorship would be first in US, backers say" by Tracy Jan, Globe Staff | June 4, 2009
It took decades and, at times, antagonistic battles, but Harvard's gay community says it has finally cemented its academic legitimacy at the nation's oldest university. College officials will announce today that they will establish an endowed chair in lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender studies, in what is believed to be the first professorship of its kind in the country.
For GOD'S SAKE! Could you SHOVE the AGENDA any harder?
Harvard president Drew G. Faust described the academic post as "an important milestone" in an ongoing effort by faculty, students, and alumni to raise the profile of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender studies at the university....
I'm glad I got out of school when I did.
Mitchell Adams, former Massachusetts revenue commissioner under Governor William Weld and a member of the Harvard Board of Overseers who cochaired the three-year fund-raising campaign for the professorship: "When Harvard does something like this, it causes a ripple effect around the world."
More colleges, including Yale, Brown, Cornell, and New York University, offer academic programs related to sex, sexuality and sexual orientation, though lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender studies are a relatively new discipline....
They call it a discipline, huh?
Umm, that is ABSTINENCE IS, perverts!
The new professorship will allow Harvard to invite scholars studying sexuality or sexual minorities to teach in the Faculty of Arts and Sciences for one semester. The visiting professorship will advance lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender studies at Harvard by exposing students and faculty to cutting-edge ideas as leading thinkers rotate through the position, Harvard officials said, as well as help expand the field internationally.
I know one class I'm not enrolling in!
Some critics of the interdisciplinary field say it is yet another example of a specialization, like women's studies and African-American studies, that focuses on identity politics and attracts a niche group of students.
"These fields combine intellectual inquiry with advocacy, and advocacy, in my view, has been a blight on higher education for the last 30 to 40 years, whereby the principles upon which universities were founded, the search for truth, got sidetracked," said Peter Wood president of the New Jersey-based National Association of Scholars.
Awright, opponents, you got your two paragraphs. NEXT!
Brad Epps - chairman of Harvard's women, gender, and sexuality program - insisted that the creation of the professorship was "not a politically motivated endeavor."
Pfft!
WHAT ELSE could it BE?
--more--"
And there it is on the FRONT PAGE AGAIN: N.H. ties gay-marriage knot
Who cares anyway?
I've raised the white flag.
