I'd be in the Dean's Office about that so fast for that blatant political agenda, it's not even funny.
That prof can have his opinions, but he shouldn't be politicizing his assignments.
Hahaha
In fact, some kids are trying to OccupyMyCollegeName. Fliers have been posted around, but I don't think half of the campus cares considering they're foreign exchange.

Yeah there's quite an uproar here about it, but the university authorities are supporting her because the extra credit is for soc class, and it IS a sociological event. *shrugs*
And I'm not in her class, I only read about it. I took her class three years ago as a freshman.

We're going to check it out because we're here and it is a major cultural event, even if people disagree with it.

Just because you don't like a topic doesn't mean it belongs in a forum you can ignore.
That's not what I was saying, but by all means, please put words in my mouth.

You'll find a LOT of people without jobs, it is by their own choosing. They'd rather wait months for welfare or whatever pathetic excuse they use to kick in instead of working a minimum wage job like millions of other Americans. "My time isn't worth $7/hr".
Neither is your life. Here's a $0.50 bullet, go end it.
Well also, no offense to any people, but maybe if you chose to do something about your apparently pathetic life, then there would be no need to protest (this is to the protestors, not Burks). I understand maybe you might not have been raised "from a decent family" or had "financial problems" which you can't help to fix and the government isn't helping, yeah I get that. But there are also people who did have a choice to help themselves. If you start becoming an alcoholic and a drug addict at 16, deliberately fail school, and disregard your close family and friends' advice, well DUH you're bound to have problems later on. It's what goes around comes around/karma/etc. If you get a good education, become a decent person, partake in sports, whatever else, you're bound to have a nice future.
Again, not everyone might have had the chance to make it big, but it's still what you make out of your life. I mean, you could have been a drug addict while young and still become successfull. Sure, luck may be involved, but if you have a generally positive attitude, anything could go your way.
It's just a little annoying when I see these people protesting about unfair stuff they were perfectly capable of avoiding. Somewhat hypocritical in a sense :/
