ACTA's Must-Reads

'Tis the season for...PC?
As we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving and proceed through the rest of the holiday season, all of us here at ACTA have much for which to be thankful -- not least the privilege of advancing academic freedom, excellence, and accountability in higher education every day. (Another thing, given our vantage point here in Washington, D.C., is a front-row seat for the latest example of America's glorious tradition of peaceful transfers of power following elections.)
On the other hand, we must confess to not being thankful for stories like this one from the Fort Myers (Florida) News-Press, which seems to be yet another testimony to the overweening political correctness present on our nation's campuses. If you're looking for a "lighter" take on academic foibles to begin your vacation, take a look.
In any event, thanks to all our readers -- for whom we are definitely thankful -- and happy Thanksgiving.
