The advantages of higher education (some more week-end humor)

Sex, Health, and AIDS" is a three-credit undergraduate course.

  • Professor William Simmons says he prefers an "action learning assignment" over papers and exams.

Students at the University of Arizona (UA) were assigned to plan a school-wide “Condom Olympics” for their three-credit “Sex, Health, and AIDS” class.

The students planned “athletic events such as a condom-wrapped egg toss,” according to The Daily Wildcat, the official student newspaper.

“Hopefully this will get students comfortable knowing what condoms are.” - Professor William Simmons   

“Students can also see and make condom art and join a condom scavenger hunt,” the article continues.

Professor William Simmons told the newspaper that he does not like term papers or exams and prefers an “action learning assignment.”

“Hopefully this will get students comfortable knowing what condoms are,” he said.

“Sex, Health, and AIDS” is a three-credit undergraduate course which “sets out to explore this social and disease phenomenon from a number of perspectives,” according to the description on the official course listing website.

The events were part of the school’s SexTalk Week Resource Fair, which the school hosted on Wednesday, according to a Facebook event.

“Special appearance by ‘Mr. Condom,’ the giant walking condom, will occur throughout the fair,” the event states.

Williams did not respond to a request for comment from Campus Reform in time for publication.

People who can't afford to attend college are paying, thru taxes, for this type of nonsense. An 11 year old family member asked me who was the best President we have ever had. I gave my opinion then I was told by the family member that Obama was the best ever. I asked where that was heard and was told in school. This is what they are teaching kids.

Liberal teachers. What did you expect?

For something that is to teach the college students about condoms, smart people would wonder why they have one or two holes in each of the condoms in the above illustration of the condom Olympics.  Condoms with holes in aren't that useful for the purpose it was made for. 

How can the USA hope to compete with other countries in scientific and technological advancement when part of the goals of the socialists/progressives (who control our higher learning institutions) is to create a dumbed-down easily-controlled populace?  You can't achieve both.
