Hip-hop is the primary language students bring with them to school," said Turner, a core member of the Hip-Hop Studies Working Group. "To ignore the language and the existence of hip-hop culture altogether is a failure to provide equal education under the law."

lets call it what it is, a degree in being black. this is completly absurd! changing the language of which classes are taught is insane and will ruin students future if they think the way they speak is acceptable. they will be doomed to a life of flipping burgers and mopping floors, because no corporation is going to hire an exec, or even a sale guy, who speaks like that.
if people can get a degree in hip hop, i want my phd in metalogy! im sure we could design a course in metal music and culture.
