Law Hungary Discontinues Gender Studies Programs - gg no re feminists

https://www.breitbart.com/london/20...gender-studies-programs-ideology-not-science/

The Hungarian government is discontinuing programs in gender studies at state-run universities after determining the programs serve no identifiable purpose and are based on “ideology rather than science.”
Bence Rétvári, Secretary of State of the Ministry of Human Resources (EMMI), said that university degrees must be rooted in a scientific basis, whereas gender studies, “like Marxist-Leninism,” are more aptly termed ideology than science, and are inappropriate matter for university-level education.

A spokesman for the Hungarian government told Breitbart News that there is no demand for gender studies graduates in the Hungarian job market.

“There is no economic rationale for studies such as these,” he said, and nor does the program “furnish students with skills that can be readily and directly converted on the labour market.”

Few university students will be affected by the decision, since only 11 applicants were admitted this year into the gender studies program at ELTE, which has a cap of 18 students, and two more at George Soros’s CEU.

The spokesman said that programs with such low student numbers are unsustainable and “take away valuable resources from other programs, deteriorating the economic stability of universities.”

“State universities operated from public funds must take these factors into consideration,” he said, “since the purpose of these institutions of higher education is to meet genuine social and labour market needs.”

The government decree only affects two universities in Hungary, the Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest (ELTE) and the Central European University (CEU), the only two offering gender studies at the graduate level.

Officials have been eying gender studies with some suspicion for a while. In 2017, Lőrinc Nacsa, the leader of the Christian Democrat (KDNP) youth wing, said that gender studies at ELTE are a wasteful luxury and counterproductive.

“We must raise awareness to the fact that these programs are doing nothing to lift up our nation. In fact, they are destroying the vvalues-centred mode of thinking that is still present in the countries of Central Europe,” Mr. Nacsa wrote in a letter to the president of ELTE.

Eh, I’m uneasy about this. In actual state-run universities, I can see why funding would be discontinued for something as useless as gender studies.
However, governments trying to shut down academia over politics is never a good sign. Any attempt to control the free flow of ideas is wrong, no matter who it’s done by.

...and nothing of value was lost.

But what program would we mock if not for gender studies?

Communications.

edit: Psychology (under-grad only)
Education
Media Arts (fuck off, you're Comms)

Hopefully the first of many to do so.

Have you ever worked in a large hotel or a large resort? Its pretty complicated, actually!

Plus you can empirically study the management of hotels/resorts and use that data to provide a better vacation, so its actually useful as a field of study.

Narrowly useful, you might say, but its still useful.

Its also like the first degree listed on every single ITT Tech/University of Phoenix ad and has been since those "I'm going to the Academy" ads in the mid-90s, so I associate it with idiots.

 

[Your Weird Fetish]

I look forward to the day where colleges are almost entirely about skilled labor or technical fields and we go back to the Math>Physics>Engineering>Chemistry>Biology nerd hierarchy of academic snobbery.

 

[MuuMuu Bunnylips]

I like studying women, particularly good looking naked ones.

Does this mean I have to stop?

Education.

The truest fucking thing. Ed majors are always incredible fuck ups and the biggest cry baby faggots

Hey now, that's too mean, you should color your feelings out on this loose leaf paper.

Soros BTFO. It never gets old that he is universally scorned in his country of birth.

Well the guy is LITERALLY a Nazi collaborator who made his fortune by selling out not only Jews, but his own countrymen to the SS during WWII for payoffs in Nazi gold.

He's even shamelessly admitted this and refused to apologize.

He might be able to bury it under a mountain of money in a lot of places, but quite a few people can't be bought off.

Am I the only one surprised an Eastern European country had a gender studies programme in the first place?

TFW when Huns are the voice of reason.

That image is retarded, whole shit load of countries marked red have their own problems that make them worse off than Western Europe.

 

[CWCchange]

They're not actually Huns. They're Magyars.

I believe thirty-something percent of their DNA is of Hun extraction. Even Turks and Turkics don't share as much genetic similarity.

That image is exceptional, whole shit load of countries marked red have their own problems that make them worse off than Western Europe.

Having to deal with scars of communism is worth than having to deal with fatal wounds of Islamism?

But what program would we mock if not for gender studies?

Architectural Design and Engineering, like the good old days.

Russia has Muslim population growth comparable to that of Western Europe, and for all the tough man image Putin is very fond of writing off Islamic autonomous region debts while raising taxes and pension ages for Russians, just to dissuade separatism. Just look at shit Chechens get away with.

Many countries like Poland are highly dependent on Western Europe and their economy would suffer greatly if Western Europe was to fall.

Ukraine is only still standing due to grudge towards Russia, it's a wreck of a nation.

Sorry, but for all the Eastern Europe infatuation, the region is still too weak on its own, except for Russia which has own problems comparable to Western European ones.

K-12 education, sure, but they're revamping education programs in a lot of schools to add emphasis on workforce development. Adult education used to be all about teaching grownups how to read or how to effectively teach college students, but there's a shift towards teaching employees how to be "better".

Which I think is worthwhile.

Man, kids from these last two generations are fucked already, how much more fucked will they be when they are being taught to work for corporations.

 

[Silence of the Troons]

Honestly, I am surprised such a thing as Eastern European gender studies classes even exist to begin with. Who even takes those?

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

Wait, you mean the government investing in a "gender studies" degree for a potential college student via grants and student loans does not provide any kind of significant return at a societal level?

Fancy that.
