Description
-
The Houston Post's editorial board writes that the UT faculty showed professionalism in rejecting a plan to require students to take courses on non-Western cultures. They write that these courses should be encouraged, but not required and suggest that requiring them would be akin to political indoctrination. They conclude by positing that religious diversity has been more influential than racial diversity, but that religion classes should not be required either.
