Broad range of topics

I took this seminar at BYU as a freshman in 1998 and I was happy to discover this podcast a couple of years ago. After listening to it for about a year, though, I am very sad to find out that the Left has managed to thoroughly infect the Department of International Affairs at BYU. I&#39;m not irritated that topics are presented from a Leftist point of view (yay, First Amendment!), but rather, because there is no balance or opposing point of view presented. Whether discussing environmentalism, the North Korean regime, the conflicts in Israel, etc., listeners will get just one perspective, and that is from the American-disparaging, Christianaphobic Left. What a disappointment to learn that BYU students are being inundated with the typical one-sided drivel taught at 99% of American universities today.

The Leftists have infected BYU, too
