Furthermore, if someone does choose to pursue college/university, isn't up to THEM to decide on which courses to take? No one is holding a gun to their head and saying "You must take course A and course B etc." People are free to choose the professions they want to get into, in the UK, last time I checked.
Also... How are courses teaching Math, or Science or Medicine or Arts or Computers/Technology, racist courses? They aren't. That woman is just flat out a fucking idiot.
Indeed. Of course, when we go to secondary school we have compulsory subjects to do. This changes when we get into 6th form college, where we are able to choose our courses with regards to the course we want to do at University. I mean, it is highly unlikely that someone is going to do Art, History, Geography and Geology to pursue a Music degree. In this case, I don't even know where she is getting the information from, but students are allowed to take whatever courses they wish to do. It is not upto her and the way I read it, it seems that she is disappointed with her friends because they are choosing "Eurocentric studies", instead of African or Arabic courses. I think that is the real reason. So, again, another Algerian who blames the system, now where have I heard that before?
