OPINION: Professors will keep teaching radical gender theory as science unless students speak up
When I signed up for Professor Michael Whitehawk's sociology class at Texas State University, I hoped it would challenge me to look at society in new ways, and think critically.
But after hearing his lectures and seeing his slides, it was obvious that we were there to accept his one sided political view, not explore ideas or facts.
That's especially concerning at a public university. For the 2024-25 school year alone, lawmakers approved $275 million in public funding for the Texas State University System.
And for next year, the legislature approved a $70 million increase -- making it all the more fair to ask whether that money is going toward real education, or just reinforcing political agendas in the classroom.
In class, Whitehawk told us flat-out that biological sex itself is a social construct.
