It si worse than thatReader comment on item: Historians Run Amok Submitted by George Zilbergeld (United States), Apr 4, 2017 at 21:01 Thank you for revealing this terrible news. Perhaps it will help turn things around. I am sad because the United States is the United States because the founding folks studied history and political science not because they studied engineeering. I am afraid that I have more bad news to add on. Many schools now have a requirement of only one course in Western Civilization and one course in a non-western civilziation. So now students can know very little about two civilizations. Any ideas of how to turn this around?
