5/23    "What Fresh Hell Is This?  A Guy Marooned in Women's Studies"
        http://www.iwf.org/pubs/twq/Spring2001c.shtml
        The "iwf" is the Independent Women's Forum.  Here's their Mission
        Statement: http://www.iwf.org/about/mission.shtml
        \_ INDEPENDENT WOMEN ARE EVIL COMMIE LIBERALS. ALL WOMEN SHOULD
           BE CONFINED TO THE MANACLES OF MEN FOR BEER RETRIEVAL PURPOSES.
           \_ That's essentially what Eve does in Paradise Lost.  It's the way
              God ordained things to be!
        \_ ow.  Thanks for posting the first url.  The second url is refreshing
           though.
           \_ I didn't post the http://www.academia.org url.  Never visited the site.
              The main reason I posted the women's studies one was all the
              head nodding.  I've experienced the exact same thing at Cal and
              found it really disturbing.  Anyone else been in this sort of
              class before?

The two-day conference, which will be held at Georgetown University in Washington, D. These lecturers, in turn, will discuss a host of topics most professors ignore. Among the speakers AIA has already signed up for the event: * Star Parker, author of Uncle Sam's Plantation. Parker heads the Coalition on Urban Renewal and Education which seeks private sector solutions to problems in inner cities. Timmerman, author of Preachers of Hate: Islam and the War on America. George Ayittey, author of Africa Betrayed and Africa Unchained: A Blueprint for Development. McCarthy and the communist sympathizers he unearthed in the U. Evans last book was entitled The Theme Is Freedom: The Religious Roots of American Liberty. Mowbray and Folsom addressed last year's well-attended Conservative University conference, as did Jessica Gavora, author of Tilting The Playing Field: Schools, Sports Sex and Title IX. Additionally, AIA's Conservative University will feature nationally recognized student leaders discussing their experiences battling academic orthodoxy. Walter Bair, a student at Shippensburg State University in Pennsylvania will appear on a panel with Jason Mattera, an undergraduate at Roger Williams University in Rhode Island. In the wake of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States, Bair's attempt to pass out patriotic flyers on his campus met with his university's attempted censure of him for violating the school's speech code. A federal court later forced the school to revise its speech code based on Bair's experience. Mattera's school withheld the funding it had previously granted his student group's newsletter when the publication ran articles investigating the actions of gay- rights activists. In the wake of the publicity that the school's action generated, university administrators left Mattera alone when he inaugurated a controversial "whites only" scholarship in which he drew on his experiences as a minority scholarship applicant to focus attention on the prevalence of affirmative action practices. The cost of the conference for students includes accommodations at Georgetown University dormitories and meals, including a Friday dinner, offered during the conference. Early Bird and group rates are available, starting at $69 per person. Brian Robertson believes that this development has proved detrimental to parents and children alike.
