[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 1095025, member: 1246"] free thinking is OK as long as you thinkand believe as the teacher does!!!! Via The Daily Caller: [INDENT]Back in the day, teachers often scoffed at using encyclopedias as serious academic references. These days, they reserve their scorn for Wikipedia and — at one public university in West Virginia — Fox News. A syllabus for a political science course at West Liberty University instructs students that they must filter out two potential research sources, reports WTOV, a nearby NBC affiliate. According to Fox News, ironically enough, the syllabus says (with grammatical errors preserved for posterity): [B]DO NOT[/B] use 1) The Onion — this is not news this is literally a parody 2) Fox News — The tagline “Fox News” makes me cringe. Please do not subject me to this biased news station. I would almost rather you print off an article from the Onion No other media or research sources — such as, say, MSNBC — appear to be prohibited.
