LOL! When you become my age, 4 or 5 years difference in age is slightly younger.
So are these then just your professors views? From the fervor of some of your posts, I'm assuming that you share the same views. My only concern is are these professors "telling" students what to think of the war or are they asking? I know at the age of 20 you should be able to think for yourself.
BTW, I'm not trying to attack you here, I'm just asking a question to verify information that I have heard elsewhere.
