It’s snowing in England.

Although the weather may not look like it, there are snowflakes coming down thick and fast at Cambridge University. It seems a professor there emailed his physical science students and told them they would do much better in his class if they focused on their studies and didn’t party. That’s when the avalanche happened. 

All the politically correct idiots in the entire world came down on him. They called his email “extremely damaging” and accused him of “frightening impressionable undergraduates”. 

It made me wonder what they would have done if John Wayne had been teaching that class. I’m sure he would have had lots of empathy and patience with a bunch of underclassmen who were whining about having to study hard. Most likely he would have kicked them in their soft little posteriors and told them to get to work. And if they didn’t like it he would have kicked them again. 

Or what about having Clint Eastwood for a teacher? Can you imagine what he would have said if a bunch of students were worried about studying? “Go ahead and fail my class, punk! Make my day!”  

Or what if General George Patton or Napoleon or Ghengis Khan were teaching? Do you think they would have put up with any of that nonsense? Heck no.

Now don’t get me wrong, I don’t think Ghengis Khan would have been a very good college professor. But if he was, I’ll bet his students would have known their stuff. The only thing is, he would only have two left.

At any rate, it’s amazing how wimpy the world has gotten. Although I’m sure if you were to go to a military boot camp, or go to wrestling practice or volleyball practice or a rodeo, you would feel much better.
