The next chapter is “higher education” lunacy comes for the fetid University of Maryland which is now offering a class in “fat studies.”

Just what the heck is “fat studies,” you ask? It is another fake academic study of wokeism, this time a course that makes obesity and unhealthy lifestyles into something to celebrate… which it most assuredly is not.

According to Just the News:

The three-credit course will be taught by Professor Sydney Lewis on Tuesdays and Thursdays and looks at “fatness as intersectional,” particularly highlighting “the relationship between fatness and blackness,” according to the course description.

When contacted twice by The Center Square, Lewis did not respond.

“Intro to Fat Studies” will examine “fatness as an area of human difference subject to privilege and discrimination that intersects with other systems of oppression based on gender, race, class, sexual orientation, and ability.”

“We approach this area of study through an interdisciplinary humanities and social-science lens which emphasizes fatness as a social justice issue,” the description said.

“The course closes with an examination of fat liberation as liberation for all bodies with a particular emphasis on performing arts and activism as a vehicle for liberation and challenging fatmisia,” according to the description.

This is just idiotic garbage.

Parents, stop paying for your children to go to these disgusting, useless colleges.
