Yale Students Think English Classes Teach about Too Many White Male Poets
Oh, gender inequality in history! Outrage mob assemble at Yale!
Some Yale University students are demanding changes to the English Department curriculum: specifically, they don’t think it should feature so many English poets who were straight, white, wealthy, and male.
“It is your responsibility as educators to listen to student voices,” the students wrote in a petition to the faculty. “We have spoken. We are speaking. Pay attention.”
