What’s a problem is the drop in the number of white males enrolled in the types of humanities courses – art history, LotE, classics, philosophy, history, etc. – that teach people how to think critically and become exposed to the theories and histories underpinning (real actual not third wave BELL KNOX/bell hooks

Not sure how you gathered I would be a Pinkham apologist - jesus, let’s not give that contributer that much power, please.
