Literary Theory and YA

Today's quote:
"John Noell Moore makes it clear that literary theory can be applied to YA literature just as effectively as it can to classic works." - 
Crowe, Chris. “Young Adult Literature: AP and YA?” The English Journal 91.1 (2001) : 123-128. 
Sad.
It almost sounds as the debate is about If YA is literature at all or not.

Bonus quote:
"Using a YA novel on the open question would be "academic suicide".

I liked the term and it shows exactly how I feel sometimes. Like 3 minutes a week.
