The point where a person has been in post-graduate school so long, either studying or teaching, they can no longer cope in the real world; they view all problems in the world as black & white and take pride in always being politically correct.
Richard's been struggling with his new job at Subway after graduating with degrees in eastern philosophy and liberal arts, I think he might be academically institutionalized by now.

Get the Institutionalized mug.1. What a military service person becomes when they've re-enlisted so many times, and have spent so many years in the service, they no longer feel they would be safe or can make a life outside the military installation's fence. They also can no longer relate to civilian life-style or understand it anymore. 2. What a convicted criminal becomes when they've spent so many years behind bars away from life outside the prison walls.
1. After 8 years in, we knew our son had become institutionalized when he expressed he didn't want to get out because he felt military service was the only guarantee to a secure and stable future. 2. After spending 20 years in prison, Lazy Eyed Larry was paroled, but he had a hard time adjusting to life on the outside because he had become institutionalized.

Get the institutionalized mug.Generally defined by social justice warriors to mean an entire society that is set up to discriminate against anyone who isn't white. People who believe in this concept believe that anyone who isn't white won't be able to succeed in this world because everything around them has a history and culture associated with it that's designed to keep non-whites down.
In reality, it's an attempt by leftists to create a "no lose" definition in which anyone who disagrees with it is a "racist" and is part of the problem. Additionally, it's designed to ensure that people of color are dependent on white liberals for everything that they obtain or earn in life.
American university professors (who are almost always white) will preach this concept to their students until they're blue in the face and will threaten to file a bias incident against them if they dare to have a different opinion.

Student: I heard that Jimmy didn't get into the local university.
Idiot: Well, Jimmy's black, and he couldn't get in because of institutional racism.
Student: Are you sure that it wasn't because he didn't ever come to class and was held back twice?
Idiot: You're a racist!

Get the Institutional Racism mug.Something that liberals fail to acknowledge or even admit exists.
Infact liberals won't even admit or acknowledge that evil exists because they're beloved institutions have convinced them that there is no such thing.

A: Aww man, the sidewalk is blocked up by 5 people all wearing the same green shirt, this can only mean Greenpeace is engaging in institutionalized panhandling again.
