Iowa will be required to include specific topics and themes in its social studies curriculum under a new law signed by Gov. Kim Reynolds Wednesday.
The state's social studies standards would be required to include instruction on government, civics and "exemplary figures and important events in Western civilization, the United States and the state of Iowa."
Opponents believed that "Western civilization" be replaced with "World Civilization"
How can we build peace in the world if students don't learn about the whole world?
