Indoctrinate U

An old friend who has embarked on a successful academic career, recently took a position at Brigham Young University, where he ran into the lovely bunny and precipitated our reunion. He transferred from another university that was desperate to keep him and as part of their campaign, warned him about the "oppressive academic environment" at BYU. My friend found this amusing since his personal experience at another university was with tyrannical feminists who denigrated his work and attempted to hobble his career for no other reason than his white maleness.

The point of course is that the various "isms" that afflict academic are indefatigable defenders of academic freedom for their points of view--not so much for others.

None of this is news for readers of this blog, but I bring it up because I want to promote Indoctrinate U, a kind of funny horror show dealing with the the sad state of academia in our nation. The producers are of course, locked out of the traditional channels, but have come up with an innovative internet-based campaign to bypass this and deal directly with local theaters.

If enough people from your area sign up at the site, the producers have the leverage to arrange a local screening.
