Graphic design is an integrally visual craft. I cannot conceive of it in any other medium, unless you're saying its real focus is your college lectures (it gets even better than that). Graphic design which espouses all your favourite typographer's principles but is not aesthetically pleasing is utterly worthless (again, outside of the context of the lectures).

You have not stated a single thing that graphic design /is/ actually about. You have mentioned three books about typography, which is a miniscule facet of graphic design.

If people are as severly misguided as you believe, and your opinion is this controversial, you owe it to yourself (let alone us) to elaborate on why this is the case.
