  For the uninitiated who want to sing this version around their Christmas tree (also approved for Hanukkah celebrations), here is how the traditional “12 Days” is sung:  You sing each of the song’s 12 lines, in ascending numerical order.   But then you only repeat the “gifts” already received.  

For example:  Start the song with “On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me: a partridge in a pear tree.”  But here is how your verse would sound in mid-song:  “On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me: six geese-a-laying, five go-o-o-ld rings, four calling birds, three French hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.”

 Try that format with today’s creation, below.  Note that singers are expected to dra-a-ag out the syllables on the gift of the “5th Day of Christmas,”in this case “Fi-i-ve Schiff collusions.”    

Now:   Your NEW 12 Days of Christmas….

1. On the first day of Christmas, my true love game to me:

         “Cash for the Big Guy from Xi.”   (JEE)

2. On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

          “Two Cuomos groping.”

3. On the third day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

        ” Three nudists with hammers.”

4.  On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

          “Four million migrants.”

5.   On the fifth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

            “F-i-i-i-ve Schiff collusions.”

6.  On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

             “Six Omar rantings.”

7.   On the seventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

            “Seven million loans ‘forgiven.'”

8.  On the eighth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

           “Eight spies for Swalwell.”

9.    On the ninth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

              “Nine percent inflation.”

10.  On the tenth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

                  “Ten mics for Schumer”

11.    On the eleventh day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

                  “Eleven fake newspapers.”

12.   On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me:

                   “12 million mail votes.”

CAN YOU GUESS WHICH SEVEN COURSES ARE ACTUALLY BEING OFFERED THIS YEAR…. AND WHICH THREE WERE COMPLETELY MADE UP BY YOUR FAITHFUL EDITOR? READ ON…

(With thanks to Young America’s Foundation, which has catalogued the ridiculous courses below, as well as many others in all 50 states).

10.   Gender & Sexuality Studies 2613:  “Compulsory Couplehood.”   (Vanderbilt University)  Focus on the “marginalization of the single person.”

 9.   Social Work 7004:  “Human Diversity and Oppression.”  (Louisiana State University)   “Social dynamics of human oppression…” studying the effects of ableism, cissexism, heterosexism, racism, etc. and “implications of human oppression… for social work practice and social policy.”

 8.   African-American Studies 339-0-20:   “Unsettling Whiteness.” (Northwestern University)  How whiteness leads to “dominating and violating forms of… doing and ordering, that define, assemble and rule the worlds of white and non-white populations.”

 7.   Gender and Women’s Studies 446:  “Queer of Color Critique.” (University of Wisconsin at Madison)   Study the emergent theoretical “field of queer of color critique, a mode of analysis grounded in the struggles and world-making of LGBTQ people of color. …Articulate the role of queer of color analysis in a vision for racial, gender, sexual and economic justice.”

 6.   Global Studies 3724: “Howard Zinn, Dorothy Day and the Imperatives of Christian Analysis and Life.”  (University of Notre Dame).   “With guest lectures from the Theology Department, we will explore the liberating revelations of Marxist Howard Zinn and the works of Dorothy Day, as instructive pathways for the society of equity, shared resources and inclusion that the Apostles might have envisioned.”

 5.   Comparative Literature 104A:  “Voice. Dissent.  Resistance:  Antiracist and Antifascist Discourse and Action.”    (Stanford University)  The rise of right-wing movements in the United States and Europe signal a resurgence of nativist and ethno-nationalist politics.” “The goal will be to understand how those involved in anti-racist and anti-fascist struggles have invented, created and practiced discourses and actions that attempt to resist racism and fascism.”

 4.   Brookdale Center for Health Aging 557: “20^th Century Struggles of Transgender Elders.”  (Hunter College / C.U.N.Y.)  Identifies transgender leaders, including formerly closeted-heads of state and Fortune 100 corporations, and how they coped with their realities, usually hiding their true selves.  Due to censorship and otherism, this rich historiography has been suppressed from emerging until the 21^st century.”

 3.   Ethnic Studies 3630:  “Reproductive Justice.” (University of Utah) “…We will discuss the reproductive health and access of people across genders, sexualities, social class, and race/ ethnicity and immigration status.  We discuss past and ongoing reproductive oppression of communities of color, but we will also talk about the ways in which society can support pregnant people and parents.”

 2.   Criminal Justice 709: “Shifting Police Resources to Social Service Interventions.”     (University of Arizona).   Building on the consensus that more police action and paramilitary spending is making us less safe, students will explore how social workers, mental health counselors, and nutrition experts can substitute for police response to domestic violence, disturbances of the peace and other situations that we have over-militarized in the past.

…and the NUMBER ONE NUTTIEST COLLEGE COURSE OFFERED THUS FAR in 2022 is:

 1.Gender Studies 113:  “Sex Work.”  (UCLA)  “Analysis of variety of contemporary sex work both in U.S. and abroad, from a feminist perspective.  Examination of how race, class and gender alter experience and perception of erotic labor….”

(With thanks to the National Association of Scholars, which maintains a roster of those who have been “canceled” at American colleges and universities.)

Can you tell which three of these “Top Ten” items are pure fiction, and which seven are true?     See answers at bottom.  

10.  Professor of Astronomy at Syracuse University fired for telling class that the planet Venus was “named for the Greek goddess of love.”     A transgender student complained that he/she was made to feel “otherized” by this science lesson.   The professor’s contract was not renewed.

  9.  Professor of economics at Lehigh University created a video on “Three Myths About Poverty.”    He was removed from the university’s “You Tube” channel and denounced on social media. 

 8.  Instructor in East Asian Languages at City College of New York suspended for one semester for referring to Kim Jong-un as “a typical Commie” in response to a student’s question.

  7.   A Chinese-American student at Fordham University posed with a rifle and a “Don’t Tread on Me” slogan as a memorial to those slain in Tiananmen Square by the Chinese Communist government.  Student was “disallowed from entering campus without advance permission” ;  banned from participating in extra-curriculr activities; and required to complete “implicit bias training.”

  6.    The Chancellor of one campus of the University of North Carolina declined to fire a controversial (now dead) professor, and in response to promotions of Black Lives Matter, said that “all lives matter.”  He was officially censured by the UNCW Faculty Senate.

  5.   A Professor of Music and a Professor of Art at Skidmore College attended a “Back the Blue” rally, expressing support for police.  Petitions were circulated throughout the Skidmore campus, urging that both professors be fired.
