I attended a university that requires all students take some form of logic class. You could take it in philosophy, math, computer engineering, whatever. But you had to take logic.
I thought all colleges required students to take logic, as it was pretty much the only class they had at the original Academy (along with Public Speaking, of course) and it just seems like it would be a rather important class to require for all college students today (along with Public Speaking, of course).
I took logic in the philosophy department from a master’s grad assistant named Liza. Sicky took the class, too, and while Liza wasn’t the best lecturer (neither was I, my first year teaching) I learned what I needed to.
That is to say, I can take this test and find it rather insulting. Though, really, anyone with a functioning brain should be able to get all the questions right. If the massive global food shortage ever requires sacrificing half the world’s population, I move that requiring a perfect score on this test be the arbiting factor in whether you live or get eaten.
Hint: It’s helpful that Americans are fatter than the rest of the world, since we’re the ones who are gonna get eaten first.
