PC'ness strikes again!
Unless the course was taught one time, spontaneously, which I highly doubt.
LTC Dooley I'm sure put a good amount of effort and research into the syllabus.
To have the CJCS come down and order a negative OER over a particular groups feelings being hurt is a travesty.
Also, if the article is correct, the faculty guidelines state
Quote:
“Academic Freedom at National Defense University is defined as freedom to pursue and express ideas, opinions, and issues germane to the University’s stated mission, free of limitations, restraints, or coercion by the University or external environment."

Sounds like an "external environment" made noise that wouldn't be ignored given the sensitivity of subject matter, and the prevailing attitude of the administration.
