    That's not new, or confined to millennials. My dad's three sisters were what he referred to as professional students. That was the 60's through the 80's, until my grandfather cut them off and told them to get jobs. It is far easier to avoid responsibility on someone else's dime. My old man paid his own way, and made me do the same. I am very glad he did too.

    I wouldn't say he's a typical Metro professor by any stretch. In my whole time there I didn't run into any Noam Chomsky type instructors. Now granted I was in the business school and had all of my gen eds done when I got there...but still I never heard about any teachers like this dude from anyone.

    My minor is history and I'm still there till may so I've had my run in's. I never had this guy though. However my major is criminal justice and you see alot of consertive pro gunners in that program, with a few exceptions. So I probably shouldn't say typical.

    Never ran into him while I was there. Sounds like a class I would have disliked but went to every day to try and fight the mindset.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    I took a class in Modern Latin American history in the early 80s from a professor who was a die hard socialist. I think her bucket list including blowing Daniel Ortega. I think my fate was sealed when on the first day she had everyone in the class tell why they signed up for the course. Since the class was right after ROTC, I was dressed in the uniform of the oppressors, and I guess my announced reason of "learned about our enemies in order to defeat them" wasn't acceptable.

    This professor reminds me of the grad student TAing for one of my poli sci classes (Problems in American National Security). Guy was a total apologist for the Soviets and negative about anything Americans did. What was interesting was the professor was to the right of Reagan so there were times he'd interject while the TA was lecturing and give him a verbal correction on some of the propaganda with an "I was there" air.
