STANFORD UNIVERSITY DISGRACES ITSELF
Power Line ^ | 10 Mar2023 | Steven Hayward

Posted on 03/10/2023 4:46:06 PM PST by Rummyfan

I didn’t think it was possible for Stanford University to sink any lower into the woke abyss, but they have found a way. This week the Stanford Law Federalist Society invited Fifth Circuit Judge Kyle Duncan to speak. A mob of students decided to heckle him such that he could not speak.

Judge Duncan requested that an administrator come and address the situation, and hence arrived Tirien Steinbach, Stanford’s Associate Dean of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Who then took the side of the heckling students, lecturing Judge Duncan about how his rulings and views inflicted “harm” on Stanford’s students.

Here is the shocking nine-minute video.

I submit this as Exhibit One in the case for why every DEI office should be abolished at every university. It makes obvious that “inclusion” doesn’t include any non-woke view. Ed Whalen, who broke the story, comments:

In the course of her prepared remarks, Steinbach paid lip service to Stanford’s policy on free speech. But she repeatedly questioned whether the policy was sound and should be reconsidered. Worse, she used the platform she seized from him to contend, ludicrously, that he “literally denies the humanity of people.” Showing no understanding of free-speech principles, she posited that Judge Duncan had the duty to offer remarks that would be so valuable as to offset the harm that his mere presence was inflicting on the community.

” Diversity departments “ literally run these schools now.

Why anyone still donates good money to their dear ol’ Alma Mater anymore is beyond my comprehension.

The Student Budget for one year at Stanford:

The standard student budget applies to the typical Stanford undergraduate student:

unmarried
financially dependent on parents
living in a residence hall or off-campus
attending full-time for Autumn, Winter and Spring quarters
The budget is based on the actual cost of tuition, plus an allowance for other fees that students are typically charged, a standard amount for housing and a meal plan, and allowances for the typical costs of books and supplies, personal expenses, and transportation to and from campus. Tuition, fees, housing and food are all charged quarterly on the university bill.

Books, supplies, personal expenses and transportation costs are estimates of your actual expenses and included for the purpose of determining the full cost of attendance and eligibility for aid, and typically are not charged on the university bill. The amounts are based on a survey of current students and adjusted for inflation. If your actual expenses are significantly higher than the allowances, you can submit documentation of your costs to the Financial Aid Office; we may be able to adjust your budget and increase your financial aid eligibility.

Most students do not actually pay this full cost! Prospective students and parents can use our Net Price Calculator to obtain estimates of eligibility for need-based financial aid from Stanford.

Student Budget at Stanford:
Budget Item
2023-2024 Academic Year

Tuition
$61,731
Housing and Food
$19,922
Student Fees Allowance
$2,205

So Dean Steinbach convicts Stanford of a mistake in the original invite.

That same law school was denying any and all financial aid to Caucasian students (and Asians), reserving 100 percent of available funds for persons of just one race

(A number of years ago…)

Stanford is a world class university but they do sometimes erupt with racist or antisemitic problems. As good as it can be academically, we don’t send them any donations. They’ve hurt some fine people terribly — and there are other places we are endowing that — so fat at least — are a good hole lot more careful hats going on.

DemocRATS love to divide, divide, divide. They just love finding more and more ways to divide us up, and then pit one group against another. They are, after all, the party of segregation and the KKK.

Stanford University, while touting and celebrating ‘diversity’ has developed segregated housing: Ujamaa House is for African-American; Okada House is for Asians; Casa Zapata is for Chicanx and Latinx (99% of Spanish speakers do not like the new Latinx phraseology, and they do not speak Latin either).

The Stanford University website explains: “”Our ethnic theme communities have a rich and long history of engaging students at the highest levels of intellectual discovery and advancing diversity””

‘Advancing diversity’ by segregation. Sounds right out of 1984.

3100.00 dollars for “personal expenses” for a 9 month school year? $10.00 per day on “personal expenses!

Hell, I don’t spend that much in a week - food and drink excluded!

Stanford University Disgraces Itself

This is like saying that a bum, unconscious, face down on the sidewalk in a puddle of his own urine and feces, could further disgrace himself by puking on his shirt.
