PC College - a Poetic Rendition of College Admission
Let's Peek Inside the Admissions Office of Today's Politically Correct College or University. What Sorts of Applicants Do They Seek?
Accepting students one and all,
Regardless of your sex or race
Come visit us, and find your place.
We don't discriminate or judge;
Your application, you can fudge.
Tell us your private information.
Claim citizenship in another nation.
Our funding comes from federal taxes;
Our ethics committee simply relaxes.
Whatever your lifestyle, we welcome you,
So please apply! We want you to!
Confess your sins on your application,
Don't bother revealing your education.
We don't care what marks you've made,
Your test scores, or your pride parade.
(Just don't let on, if you have prayed!)
Here at the Politically Correct College,
We seek diversity over knowledge.
If you are a rebel, we won't deny.
Traditionalists need not apply.

Post a CommentI like how you express your opinion in poetic form! Very good poem and a very good read...oh yes, and this is very well thought-out! Great job!
Cute.
Sounds like you have experience. Another sad reality.
funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
great job Miss Linda
You know, I just received an email that touches on the very same subject; of all the free programs and all the money people, FROM OTHER COUNTRIES, get to go to school here just to return to their own countries and laugh at Americans for paying them to be here and use us and our tax dollars. Something is very wrong here, when we, Americans cannot get the same thing as people from other countries get. And they never have to repay not even the first penny.our tax dollars even pay for their gas to go back and forth to school. I think our government SUCKS in this respect, AND IN MANY OTHER WAYS.
Great write !!!
Cute :)
AMEN! you have said it all in poetic form.
Too true for comment....my son is in the application process....
