The death of feminism at British universities

Posted on February 12, 2008 by Walter H. Schneider

Telegraph.co.uk The death of feminism at British universities By Harry Mount Quietly, without much fanfare, women’s studies has disappeared from British universities. In the 70s, 80s and 90s, thousands of students across the country took the subject. Over the last five years, numbers have dropped by 75 per cent and only 35 students are doing it this year. This summer, the last place offering the course, London Metropolitan University, is stopping women’s studies altogether.

Prisoner Re-Entry into Society – Publications

Posted on February 12, 2008 by Walter H. Schneider

Re: Prisoner Re-Entry into Society, CLASP, the [US] Center for Law and Social Policy, makes available and accessible (for free) a number of publications that relate to various aspects of prisoners in the system and those attempting to re-enter society.

Posted on February 5, 2008 by Walter H. Schneider

Building the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge was just one of the many things that men did and still do.  Although the evidence of what men do is all around us, we tend to forget and ignore it.  We take it for granted.  We especially forget about the sacrifices men had to make in achieving what we don’t waste much time remembering, sacrifices necessary to feed their families. From some of the reviews of the documentary of Building the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge (how easy it is to measure what people did in the past by applying today’s standards): Reviewer: Dragon05701 – favoritefavoritefavoritefavoritefavorite – June 23, 2006 Subject: building the bridge “in reply to spuzz review “foolish … Continue reading →
