NATIONAL UPROAR FOLLOWS SCHOOL’S FAILURE TO FOLLOW STATE LAW

The University of South Carolina is ignoring a state law which requires it to offer courses on the United States Constitution and other founding documents – a law which provides for the removal of the school’s president in the event of non-compliance.

Of course USC President Harris Pastides is taking the law about as seriously as the federal government takes its founding documents – which is to say not at all.

According to The Daily Gamecock (in a story which has since been picked up by The Daily Caller), Pastides says he’s not following the law because it is antiquated.

And because it would be too expensive to implement.

“Without modernization, the strict application of (the statute) would create an academic logjam, delaying a student’s timely graduation and burdening the student and parent with additional tuition and costs,” Pastides wrote in a letter quoted by The Daily Gamecock.

Really?

So teaching students the U.S. Constitution involves the unacceptable incursion of student and parent expense … but USC can blow money on a colossally failed speculative real estate deal with no consequences?

Good to know …

Also, the last time we checked the statute Pastides refers to as antiquated was last updated in 1998 – which strikes us as a fairly “modern” application of law.

As usual, Pastides is 100 percent full of it …

Frankly, this whole exercise is ridiculous … and further evidence of the need to completely privatize South Carolina’s bloated, inefficient and corrupt system of higher education (which consumes a disproportionately high percentage of our state budget).

Bottom line: Colleges and universities shouldn’t be required to teach anything they don’t want to … and the only accountability they should be subject to is the accountability of the marketplace.

There should be no taxpayer subsidization of education at any level, as far as we’re concerned.

Having said that, we fully suspect members of the S.C. General Assembly (with a few exceptions) will completely ignore the fact that Pastides is completely ignoring their law … because what is South Carolina if not an ever-revolving circle jerk of ignorance.

Oh, and tuition increases …

But they can afford polarizing, hate-based African-American (Honky Hater) Studies, Women’s (man hater) Studies, and a Reagan-bashing class. And I bet they teach the myth of Global Warming and the wild absurd “theory” of Evolution, as if it were Gospel.

No, it would be a lot faster than 10 billion years. The earth is only 5 billion years old and has only been capable of supporting life as we know it for about 3.5 billion of those years. The sun only has about 2.8 billion years of life left, so Earth will never be 10 billion years old.
Just kidding, I know that is all science non-sense. The earth is only10,000 years old and there were dinosaurs on Noah’s Ark.

“Also, I find it amusing that you believe your child learning about the constitution doesn’t benefit his own interests.”

Well, let’s be honest about it…the lawyers works to subvert it and it’s pretty much ignored when not twisted in Congress, by the President and the Judicial branch.

So why study it? It’s become just what some claim Bush said, “Just a god damned piece of paper.”

Let’s not delude ourselves into thinking the Constitution means dick. Obama is just a little more upfront about it than Bush the Dumber.

So yeah, why waste my son’s time and my money to study a much manipulated document?!

William February 20, 2014 at 3:03 pm

Hardly a money shot. Non-engineers do not claim to be experts in bridge design, non-doctors do not claim to be experts in surgery, non-HVAC repairmen don’t claim to be experts in the installation and repair of heat and air systems. Why? Because they have no educational background in those areas.
So why is it people with no educational background in law claim to be experts in Constitutional law? And believe it or not most Judges and Lawyers work just as hard as Engineers, Doctors and HVAC repairmen.

Uh huh February 20, 2014 at 3:28 pm

What the hell does any of that have to do with whether someone should study the Constitution or not?

People claiming to know the Constitution without studying it is a completely different issue/topic.

Let us hope you aren’t a lawyer or judge.

Willliam February 20, 2014 at 7:14 pm

Perhaps you need to read. I am not opposed to people studying the constitution. Your response was in support of a person who opposes the University teaching the constitution because he is afraid his children will be exposed to “left leaning” professors. His entire point was he was knows all anyone needs to know about the constitution, and that anyone who believes differently from him is a “commie.”

Uh huh February 20, 2014 at 9:31 pm

“Perhaps you need to read. I am not opposed to people studying the
constitution. Your response was in support of a person who opposes the
University teaching the constitution because he is afraid his children
will be exposed to “left leaning” professors.”

He makes that as one of several points later, so to clarify I made my statement on his initial point:

“(3) who really follows the Constitution anymore?… this POTUS or SCOTUS?”

This is a legitimate argument, and IF YOU READ MY COMMENT, I was speaking directly to that…not the other stuff.

Barbarossa February 20, 2014 at 1:40 pm

… and one other thing, I’ve read and know the Constitution (perhaps better than you). For instance, I know that the rights of states – enumerated in the 10th amendment (Bill of Rights) – is essentially a sham today as the Federal Government has been growing its mission and power for the past 225 years. To the point that the concept of individual state sovereignty is now essentially a hollow term. And let me say this, without individual states’ rights, this country has lost it’s greatest “pressure release valve” to ward off a future civil war. Trust me, 300 million people are never going to want to live under the same set of laws. And simply, only a tyrannical government will be able to keep (temporary) order against the dissenters.

William February 19, 2014 at 6:17 pm

The problem is that Tea Partiers don’t really understand constitutional law, but think they do. So what they want is to force USC students to study a year of constitutional law, but only from someone who knows as little about constitutional law as they do, less he or she tell the students, something Tea Partiers do not believe in.
Tea partiers follow the axiom, ” If we like it its Constitutional if we don’t like it its not.”

Barbarossa February 19, 2014 at 7:15 pm

The Daily Gamecock editorial was what really got me.

Tough shit. My interests don’t intersect with paying taxes but I do because I live in this country. Is the law antiquated? Yes. Should everyone be required a full year of study? No. But if we want the University to produce responsible citizens, we need to facilitate an understanding of the rights and requirements of a citizen. There is no better document to lead that discussion than the constitution.

Alll Americans should be familiar with the Constitution and other founding documents. Students should spend some time on it in the fifth or six grade and then again in high school, but to require college students to spend two semesters on it is absurd. College courses are expensive. Those working towards science or engineering degrees can hardly afford to waste six semester hours.

This is yet another example of how our General Assembly has wasted time and resources on the trivial and avoided the necessary work for South Carolina and her citizens.

Try Poli 201 – American National Government. Its a full semester 3 hour course on wait for it . . . “The formation and development of the national government, its organization and powers.” I guess since the course description did not have the word Constitution in it, it was above the comprehension level of most Teanutarians.

Jan February 18, 2014 at 8:49 pm

This article is poorly written. As a result it provides this website’s usual dose of misinformation or disinformation. Obviously another Howard Rich payment came in.

This article states “the University of South Carolina is ignoring a state law which requires it to offer courses on the United States Constitution and other founding documents.” This is obviously not true, USC offers numerous courses on the Constitution and founding documents. Only a nut would believe otherwise. The University offers degrees in Political Science and History.

The article in the Gamecock alleges there is a requirement under state law that USC require all students to take a course on the Constitution and Founding Documents for a full year. First, I don’t know that this is true. The law seems a bit vague as to the timing and nature of the requirement. But even if the allegation is correct, USC requires all students to take three hours of Social Studies, which must include US History. That has been the rule since I graduated. The basic course taken by most Freshmen or Sophomores to meet this requirement does in fact cover the Constitution and Founding Documents. History, Political Science, and Education Majors get a lot more coverage.

If the University does in fact have to adjust its requirements to require a full year devoted to the Constitution (Note “full year” is not defined in the legislation, but I would assume that means two semesters) it is going to actually be quite an expensive undertaking for most students and their parents. Such a requirement would most likely add an additional semester on to the degree of most students. Not an inexpensive undertaking by any stretch of the imagination.

South Carolina has an interesting relationship with the US Constitution. Some folks get all in a huff when USC reportedly won’t teach classes on it, but yet SC led the charge in 1861 to secede from the Union so the South could permanently enshrine the enslavement of Africans into law.
Another example would be S.C.’s blood lust of every man, woman and child and the family dog and cat having several guns each and carrying them around in holsters to bars, clubs, movies, or what have you as per the 2nd Amendment….yet remain hostile to the 1st Amendment’s establishment clause.
