Education is indoctrination. [0][1] It is what you sign up for when you take a course. It is trivial to reject the principles of any college course on legitimate grounds; for one thing, you can just reject the axioms. Some degree of belief is required to accept any form of human knowledge.
Maybe the problem is that indoctrination often goes beyond the scope of the course. If that is indeed happening, many would agree that it should stop.
