Yeah, I had a few teachers who made it a point to point out the euro-centric biases of their courses. And then didn't do jack to include anything but western history.

I've noticed similar trends in books on architecture, art, and music history. Paul Graham picked Civilisation as the one book to read on art history if a person were to read only one book about art history, but it didn't have a single instance of non-Western art. I felt pretty let down at the time.
