Last week I wrote an article for NAS entitled "The Death of Manliness at the University of Wyoming" about the UW administration's bias against  "Literature By and About Men" (also see "Cowboy Up" by David Clemens on this blog). Campus Reform, the Network of enlightened Women, and Men's News Daily picked up the story. I also appeared on a radio broadcast of University Talk to discuss the article. Check it out and see why "manly" is a lonely word on campus.
