Re: But college spokesman Richard Tuson said the list was part of a comprehensive equal opportunities policy, serving the same purpose as wheelchair access and family-friendly schedules in making everybody feel welcome. Oh, yeah...I can just see the red carpet being rolled out for white men, uh-huh... ``This is not about political correctness. It is about sensitivity and people's feelings,'' Tuson said. This chump should hook up with the "musical chairs are bad" UK lady...that is, if it doesn't bruise anybody's eggshell ego ;-) See: Message 13760540 ObJoke: How many radical feminists does it take to change a light bulb? None. The light bulb was invented by Thomas Edison, another dead white man, and, therefore, using electricity would be selling out the feminist cause! :-)

I take umbrage at Richard Tuson's very name. He must change his name and list his former name as verboten in his "guidebook." A nickname for Richard is "dick" and has unsavory sexual connotations. Additionally, the name "Richard" contains the word "rich" which may cause the economically challenged stress and feelings of inadequacy. The last name, "Tuson," alienates all those who cannot have children or who wanted sons but have only had daughters. Tuson is a travesty. And this man postures himself as a spokesperson for the politically correct? HA! The audacity of that person to use the name "Richard Tuson"!!! What a disgrace!!
