Take the case of this poor, wilting flower. Nissy Aya is now in her fifth year of undergraduate study at Columbia University. She was supposed to graduate last year with the rest of her class, but finds herself -- totally not her fault -- on track to graduate next year.
Ms. Aya says that she has experienced much angst and anguish while taking Columbia's Core courses, studying the greatest, the most powerful, the most tolerant civilization in the history of the human race -- Western civilization. It seems that Ms. Aya has feelings of inadequacy when reading all these books by dead white males.
