Studying adolescent sexual health sounds illegal

What all does that include? Stuff like STD prevention, birth control, teen pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, etc.? If it is stuff like that, I don't see an issue with it. Take a place like Lubbock, people there definitely need more exposure to these topics.

We just cancelled a bunch of this crap in the curriculum. Why is this now happening?

Because liberals gonna liberal. They don't believe they are bound by any rules or laws and can do as they please with no consequence.

The Board needs to be disbanded and replaced, but of course that won't happen. Any tenure granted should be revoked, but of course that won't happen. Because Texas A&M, despite its long-standing conservative reputation, is run by liberals.

Three of my most despised occupations:
1) lawyers
2) journalists
3) tenured professors

It's going to be a long slog to get these universities to change. We'd need a very conservative president and congress for at least 10 years to make a significant dent. They just can't help themselves. It's more important to the left than breathing.

Because your faculty is leftist, like most faculties in America.

Tenure is employed by large research universities to recruit the best research faculty. It is not based on your political opinions, rather on your ability to perform scientific/engineering research (grants, papers etc.). Unfortunately it has been applied across the board, for purposes that it does not suit.

Obviously never worked with the "sustainable" crowd. It's a co-opted term leftists have chosen make people think they're working for us all. Enjoy your bugs.
