University Diaries somehow manages to find the best quotes ever. Look at this excerpt from an article about Ohio State University:
Our faculty are discovering new star systems, nurturing democratic processes in the Ukraine, and unraveling the link between emotional stress and disease.
With all due respect to Ohio State, condescending much? What if Kharkov State University, my university in Ukraine, published a release stating that its faculty members are “nurturing democratic processes in the US”, huh? Would that sound like a normal statement to make? And if you don’t see why it is completely ridiculous to make such statements, you should keep as far as possible from Ukraine. And, hopefully, everybody else.

Condescending a lot! However, no matter how much criticism I have at the Argentinean political system, if the University of Buenos Aires “published a release stating that its faculty members are “nurturing democratic processes in the US”, I would say they have a lot to teach to Americans. Including how democracy means a lot more than voting every 4 years.

Even so, “teaching” and “nurturing” is not the same thing. It hardly makes sense for college professors to be so paternalistic about a huge country.

“Nurturing” just makes it so much worse than any other condescending verb as well. Yuck.

Who knows what has prompted this particular bit of weirdness?
