The course studies the tactics that these opposing forces used and examines dissenting literature in these periods.
Class History
Dissent was introduced to Carlisle in 06.2. It was taught by Cory and TA'd by Pat, the latter known as the "TA from Purgatory." Students in this class remember childhood playground games, such as duck duck goose, Simon Says, Red Light Green Light, and most importantly, SPUD. The class beat many other classes in SPUD before eventually deciding that the only possible challenge would be playing amongst its own members. McKenzie Hull, who was also Passionfruit Emperor, was the undefeated champion.
Also in this class, David invented the word "goregasm", and the class spread the good word of Al Gore throughout CTY.
Much of this course was spent watching movies, including:
- Birth of a Nation: Gore! (Racist)
- Modern Times: Gore! (Bumbling)
- Control Room: Gore! (Jounalistic)
- The Weather Underground: Gore (Anarchistic)
- Iron Jawed Angels: Gore! (Feminist)
- An Inconveinent Truth: Gore! (Al)
