I won't disagree that your history degree is worthless if you think people should give up their history to get out of the way for the descendants of those who kept them excluded in the first place. I may go to a crappy west coast Pacific school with weak Greek Life, but thankfully my History degree is far more valuable to me than yours is to you. Weak defined as homes on the Register of Historic Places, men's and women's groups on campus for over 100 years, a campus designed by Fredrick Law Olmsted, and 10 miles away there's a similar weak situation at Wazzu. I am sure the professors at your directional Texas school, which is not in the SEC you idolize, were highly competent and capable, you just didn't learn anything about the history of others and how it is your history as well.
