> This should be your call to read communist theory. Education should be about learning and creating knowledge, not cramming and being put off from pursuing your passsions! I had never read Marx's Communist Manifesto before going to college. It was assigned reading for a class. I don't necessarily agree with the validity of it all (it depends too much the decency and incorruptibility of humanity of which we have too little of both). Even though I don't agree with much of it, I very much appreciate being exposed to it so I have a better understanding of the perspective of its origins and those that believe in it more than I do. That probably wouldn't have occurred without me going to college.

...I'm pretty sure reading about psychology or neurology would be more relevant than reading about communism. Communism might be interesting in a historical context, but it's not science.
