But I suggest that's exactly what has been happening over the thirty years I
have been teaching. In a sincere effort (I think) to rectify the
inequalities of the old system, we have substituted--nothing. There is
knowledge to be acquired, methods scientifical, mathematical, etc. to be
mastered, in effect content which the students learn and demonstrate that
they know. Personally, I like living in a liberal democracy (Canada) and I
am doing my best to perpetuate the system, and teach the tradition from
whence it evolved.
