ABSTRACT
When people draw up their short lists of the nation's most politically correct campuses, the University of Massachusetts at Amherst is usually among the top five or six. Almost anything can happen there, from protests about the school's Minuteman mascot (he is military; he is white) to the regular takeover and trashing of offices, regularly followed by concessions to those who did the trashing. Other penalties are listed for any department with high female dropout rates, apparently a measure aimed at math and science teachers. The university would withdraw its support and recognition from any "group" with a higher rate of sexual harassment or sexual violence than the campus average. Campus feminists, like most multiculturalists, tend to believe that all knowledge is constructed, and that college women are being spoonfed "male" or "white male" knowledge that must be deposed and replaced by "new knowledges" created by women and minorities.
