I've read quite a bit of those now and there is nothing evil or indoctrinating in it, just an amazing steaming pile of stupid and poor judgment.
If I were a student I'd be annoyed with such a colossal waste of time, and I really feel sorry for the RA's who need to monitor and teach this crap.
I had a taste of this with some sort of 'rape sensitivity' training we all had to take as males at the school.
I'm so glad someone told me that rape was wrong and that no means no, I mean how would I have ever known I was doing something against her will!
Thats the level of these activities, only without the clear concept of preventing rape. If they weren't scanned I'd quote some of the better ones.
For fun, read page 67 of the Russell Curriculum as the worst 1-1
My RA only had to keep the noise down and make sure no one was drunk, boy he missed out on some fun I say!
