...what the Patriot Act certainly does symbolize is the erosion of the right to privacy that the Supreme Court has ruled is implicit in a number of constitutional amendments, including the Fourth and the Fourteenth Amendments. Even without the question of the value being brought to bear, a sacrifice of freedom is not in service of either American values or the U.S. Constitution...

By including Marx but not including feminists on the syllabus, the department communicates that capitalism is an institution worthy of criticism, but sexism is not. Furthermore, allowing concentrators to read Hegel, Tocqueville and Polanyi, to name a few, without providing...
