American studies in an American indoctrination center (i.e., college)

With my old-fashioned mindset, if I were to go back to college to major in “American Studies” I would expect to find the curriculum filled with classes about the Constitution, the development of political parties, the immigrant experience, the opening of the West, changes in Congress, etc.  Boy, would I be wrong.  Here is the roster of American Studies classes being taught at one of the innumerable (and expensive) “liberal arts” colleges dotted throughout America’s Midwest.  As you read it, keep in mind the theory that Asians and Jews are Democrats even when it’s against their own best interests because they are the groups most likely to send their kids to these indoctrination factories:
