=\= What was actually mentioned was an environmental studies
department.  You are conflating a field of study with a
political movement.

> Is there an "anti-environmentalist department"?

=/= Need there be one?  Why do you not conflate any other fields
of study with an anti-environmental political movement?  There
are plenty of educational programs designed to launch students
into, say, toxic-waste-polluting careers.  Why do you express
no concern about these?

>> If they wish to petition their department for credit for

=\= Your correspondent is trying hard to have a civil discussion
about these matters and you seem determined to drag it down into
flames; and now the chimera of PCness is tossed in as well --
always a sign that real live issues are being avoided.
