"fascism"

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

They should kick the engineering schools out of the university, to remove all remaining usefulness to them.

They found out that 50% of modern students have never heard of pronouns :-)

From the K-12 wing of the Old Jokes Home:

The teacher notices that Little Johnny is looking out the window daydreaming. She barks out "Johnny, what are two pronouns?"

Johnny jerks his head around and says "Who, me?"

The teacher says "Very good, I didn't think you were paying attention."

Engineering students mocked the survey... causing the researchers to seek therapy and come to the conclusion the engineering school was full of Nazis and needed re-education.

They haven't yet figured out that they're the baddies, insisting anyone that doesn't embrace their ideology is a fascist.

Electrical engineers have male and female connectors -- and sometimes hermaphroditic ones.

Electricians use hickeys to bend conduit, and build lamps using nipples.

Ethernet bridges use bippy-doos (BPDUs -- Bridge Protocol Data Units).

And I didn't even mention the old resistor color code mnemonic. It was easy to remember because it was racist, sexist, and obscene. "Ask around."

Speaking of mnemonics:

I learned that in USAF electronics school. But that was before they changed "cockpit" to "flight deck," or just on the edge of it.
