He was told he could not for that portion of the course. BUT you are correct in that he could have just omitted that portion.

That’s the part where he goes into how boy love is great

We shouldn’t be teaching pedo is ok in college

For clarity I agree that the course could have not dealt with that issue. Mine did not.

Always has been and always will be. Stupid open carry laws and education system dedicated to dumbing down their chilren.

Contrast that with California, Illinois, Massachusetts, and New York. All of these states’ strict gun laws and supposedly string education system, people are fleeing those states. Are these people “stupid” enough to realize that they are losing their shirt in taxes and being subject to Blue States being soft on crime to the point they are moving to Red States like Texas?

Mine either but I went to college 20 years ago, back when even left wing professors could define what a woman was

Opinion | Texas A&M told me not to teach these Plato excerpts. Here's what he wrote.

Martin Peterson: The Greek philosopher explicitly urged his students to seek the truth — even when it was uncomfortable or controversial. Universities should do the same.

In previous posts I have pointed out how extremely ignorant are the leaders of Texas. However, it did not dawn on me that one of its institutions of higher learning would not want to engage in higher learning but would rather further far, far right wing ideology as is practiced by today's so called "conservative" Republicans.

Texas is not a state engaged in academic freedom and freedom of thought. Those rights exist in Texas only if they meet the current requirements of far, far right ideology! And it's a disservice to their young people!

Bigly!!!

Correct, and when those freedoms and thoughts didn't match the Democrat party's mantra, they censored those folk on Twitter. And that was a disservice to all Americans.

In previous posts, and this one, you’ve spewed forth leftard bullshit. Easily and thoroughly refuted.

Did Texas A&M Really ‘Censor’ Plato—or Did Left-Wing Faculty Manufacture a Scandal?

Texas A&M University removed one reading from a single philosophy class.

From the article: State Rep. Brian Harrison (R–Midlothian) disputed this characterization.
“Liberal academics at Texas A&M have manufactured a scandal by slipping a few sentences from Plato into a transgenderism section they knew would get cut,” Harrison stated in a media appearance. “They then ran to their media allies to concoct a fake story.”
Scott Yenor, a scholar who studies higher education, concurred with Harrison.
“This looks like a classic lefty tactic. Namely, exaggerate what the rule demands, and then apply that exaggeration in order to discredit the rule,” Yenor told Texas Scorecard.
“The idea that Plato teaches anything like modern gender theory is ridiculous. The myth that Aristophanes tells about human beings in the symposium is among the most famous in platonic philosophy. The point of the myth is to teach human beings about love and specifically Eros, not gender ideology.”
