A degree in education

11. The original post in this thread is incredibly offensive.

If you take the time to look into degrees in elementary education, for example, you'd probably find required coursework in advanced psychology, history of education and learning, philosophy of education and schools, curriculum planning, pedagogy in various subjects, and content area-specific coursework in biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, American history, world history, and literature. To earn a BA or BS in elementary education these days, it isn't shocking to expect a five year course of studies.

Is this OP meant to be sarcastic? I'm getting kind of sick of the threads started around here attacking teachers and/or public schools. I thought these were liberal forums. If I wanted more of this, I could head over to Free Republic.
