I am currently taking a class based on The Closing of the American Mind. To this point, I have never taken a philosophy class and am finding it very difficult to follow Bloom's opinions. Does he agree?...does he disagree? Is it satisfied or unsatisified?...I am confused! I feel that all I know is that he believes the american university systems have failed their students. is this way off? I am to pick a chapter or subchapter and agree or disgree. I have no clue where to start since I hardly understand what he is trying to say. John

Instead of trying to grow their movement via intellectual debate - a hard thing to do when they don't have any intellectual merit - they just wage a culture war based on popularity in the schools. By converting kids, they guarantee the next generation will be poo. Honestly, the socialist Liberal humanists deserve credit.

I'm not a heavy reader, but I used to be and this was something I would have enjoyed in my earlier years in college. If this were written today, I don't think it would even be published...let alone ever get a NY Times review to make it to #1 best sellers list. Socialism STARTS in school, even gradeschool, and if <b>they</b> can get you for another 4 years after graduating, the better. I actually dropped out of college with only a few classes left and while regrettable, I think I'm better off for it. (at least for now) I couldn't stomach anymore liberal bias lectures being shoved down my throat. To be honest (i’m a bit embarrassed) I’ve never came across this book before.
