John Leo, editor of Minding the Campus, published an article on National Review Online called "Code Words." He links Glenn Beck's warning about "social justice" to other code words of the campus left, such as "cultural competence" and "sustainability," words that sound like wholesome ideas but which really have hidden political meanings. On campus today students are urged to embrace fashionable ideologies; we need to know what lies behind these terms. Leo quotes NAS president Peter Wood's article "What Does 'Sustainability' Have to Do with Student Loans?" which begins to unpack some of the nebulous buzzwords.
