Marquette forum calls university seal a 'microaggression'

During a recent forum at Marquette University, students and faculty members enthusiastically agreed that the university's seal is a "microaggression" because it depicts a white explorer being guided by a Native American.
According to one professor at the forum, the seal shows how Marquette's namesake, French explorer Fr. Jacques Marquette, "took advantage of an economic disparity to have a Native American as his guide."

Ignorance dressed up as moral outrage is still ignorance.

No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people."    -Calvin Coolidge

This will continue as long as these  institutions of Higher Indoctrination tilt further to the left.   Once enrollment drops the balance will return.
