This just in. George Washington University (GWU) has changed its course requirements for obtaining a history major to no longer include U.S. history. The university’s history department recently introduced new requirements with the stated aim of giving students greater flexibility to pursue their interests, and to “better reflect a globalizing world,” whatever that means. (In case you were interested, the annual tuition to this private Snowflake U. is $51,800. Great, Mommy and Daddy spend over $207,000 for their precious son or daughter to get a history degree that may completely exclude any deep historical knowledge of the country in which they live.)
