san diego state university logoOne of the required courses to enter the graduate teaching-credential program at San Diego State is “Introduction to Multicultural Education.” In this class, students must participate in “cultural plunges,” in which each student must put himself into uncomfortable situations to learn “tolerance.” Students must visit a place that is mostly populated with gays and lesbians, such as a gay bar or club, and, if they are white, an all- black church to see how being the only white person feels. During one class session, each student has to recite aloud before the group in Maoist education camp fashion, “I am gay” or “I am lesbian” (regardless of whether or not he is) and then describe how it feels to be gay in various discriminatory situations.
