Evolution Major Vanishes From Approved Federal List
<quote>
Evolutionary biology has vanished from the list of acceptable fields of
study for recipients of a federal education grant for low-income college
students.

Dr. Krauss said: 'Removing that one major is not going to make the nation
stupid, but if this really was removed, specifically removed, then I see it
as part of a pattern to put ideology over knowledge. And, especially in the
Department of Education, that should be abhorred.'

While in principle this should be a major concern, in practise $4000 is
eleven bucks a day which is just about 3 Big Macs, fries and coke and
is not going to support a student for a year, he'll still need to find a
job.

Putting ideology over knowledge is exactly what well
organized state religion is about. And Dr. Krauss also
seems to ignore the fact that the de-facto essence of
"The Nation" is already stone stupid. Just look at the
leaders they put in command.

It is odd, definitely. However, in true bureaucratic fashion, there's
an alternative designation:
