Bill Clinton once joked that he was going to consolidate the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, the Fish and Wildlife Service, and (as I recall) some kind of federal trucking agency and name it “the Department of Guys.”

Now, Wagner College on Staten Island wants to establish Male Studies. (Hat tip: Wash Post.) Women’s studies departments may be a scourge on the intellectual life of universities. The solution, however, is not to create an alternative set of men’s studies departments. Something tells me that they won’t be offering classes in firearms instruction and sports history. If they do, though, they’ll probably fill their classroom seats.
