Perhaps, but I'd prefer a seminar on great books taught my one really good professor who knew how to keep his own political views from tainting his views on literature.

You mean like a math or science professor?

Funnily enough, I was reading Asimov's Guide to Shakespeare last night, and thinking how great it was to have literature explained by a man with a clear scientific mind instead of a mushy literary one.
Unfortunately, the Asimovs of this world are few and far between.
I'd like to hear that.
