Thank God for University!
Because how else would we get an education? Where else could we express views like “there are no absolute truths” and “death is just a perception”? I’m sorry my man(or woman in this case), death is not a perception, death is the difference between having a pulse and not having a pulse. There is little room for second opinions.
Some of your may find yourselves wanting to scream plagiarism on my part but please refrain. These are real quotes from both my fellow students and Ayn Rand. It’s not simply that people read her and pulled lines (bad ones at that), it’s that they didn’t. These ideas came from somewhere, these are educated people (save myself- I am just a lowly paramedic). Where, may I ask, do they come up with this clap-trap bullshit?
I suppose it’s from the same people that ask stupid questions like “what do we do if the bookstore doesn’t they books that we need?”. Well my friend, you go ahead and use that fancy laptop Daddy bought you, get on a website and find the damn book. I mean really, you’re in college. You’re expected to take responsibility.
I suppose I wouldn’t care so much if I wasn’t there. If I didn’t have to throw my lot in with the rest of them. I wanted to cry when one person asked a professor if he organized our field trip assignment. Well, right there on the syllabus it says that there are three, very broad options. Is he really expected to set up an appointment for you to go to the soup kitchen?
I would also like to commission a study on much gets spent each ear on Che Guevara Gear? From what I can tell it appears to be the hottest selling item on campus. Need I even mention the irony of spending $25 on a Guevara shirt or poster? Fight the System!! But spend tons of money doing it. The man and his views led to the deaths of millions of people. Why should we celebrate that? It’s not that I think he should be banned, I just think people need to be educated, properly.
I suppose this just feels like pissing up a flagpole.
