Does the University of Missouri have a death wish? In the wake of capitulating to race grievance demonstrators, Mizzou is already experiencing a decline in applications so severe that it is closing four dorms and a drop in donations that is causing a financial crisis. Although the faculty no longer includes Melissa I need some muscle Click, apparently race-obsessed leftists still occupy positions of power.
The universitys Faculty Council Committee on Race Relations is digging an even deeper hole for the school. Carly Hoilman of TheBlaze reports:
The University of Missouris Faculty Council Committee on Race Relations released a video series this week that aims to educate students and faculty about racism on campus, Mizzous student newspaper, the Maneater, reported.
Committee member Craig Roberts, a Mizzou plant sciences professor, said that the target audience of these videos will be white faculty, the lessons will be applicable for the while community as a whole.
The committee apparently is aiming not at overt expressions of racism, but rather:
Mak[ing] Mizzou a safe and welcoming place for everyone by developing tools and strategies to assist the faculty in understanding and and working to correct misunderstandings about race and ethnicity.
The committee has released five videos. In the first video, Roberts regretfully notes that around 1,500 of Mizzous two thousand full-time faculty members are white. He calls racism a way of life problem for the schools community.
Check out one of the videos for yourself:

And many black Africans come to this country with little or no English and they also excel.
Good for her; she’ll be safer for it. We’re looking at some schools in nearby Newark NJ, and they just had a couple of students killed there at two neighboring schools. The first a couple of weeks ago involved drugs (as I understand it), but the second (just this morning) involved a student returning to a frat house from a store very early in the morning.
I couldn’t imagine what the families are going through; we would never consider leaving our children there to live as hostages of the ferals.
Whitey needs educating!
Or else!
As Mrs. L,TOWM just asked (with a borderline evil grin) “what does unseen racism look like, exactly?” Bwahahahahaha
Think about what is next. The Columbia, Mo ECONOMY.
Freshmen enrollment down 25% IN ONE YEAR..!
2 entire dorms CLOSED (not enough kids)
MANY staff laid off
MANY sports fans called, wrote in “I’ll never attend a game again..”
Alumni boosters “What is the ultimate PRIVILEGE? My preferred parking, so I’ll simply never go on campus again..”
If it keeps up like this they’ll be GONE in 5 years —GONE.
Liberals will stay there as long as the schools foundation money holds up, when it runs out they will blame conservatives for fomenting racism on campus and hope for a government bail out to keep the paychecks coming
Doubling down on stupid. Weapons grade stupidity at an institute of “higher learning”. How would you feel if your kids went there?
“Whites are sick and tired of discussing race and being blamed for everything.”
Whites are not allowed to discuss race; they are just expected to listen. Eric Holder made that clear years ago.
Watching the demographic disaster unfold, they have already run out of white people to pay for many things; soon they will run out of white people to blame for anything at all. Whites won’t be murdered Mau Mau or Simba style; they’re just quietly contracepting themselves into oblivion. I honestly believe much of the “Black Lies Matter” nonsense is being spurred by the realization that as Obama’s tenure draws to a close, many blacks are realizing 1) that they are much worse off than before, with no improvement in sight, and 2) they see less and less white people with every passing day, instead dealing more and more with the imported Hispanics and Asians trafficked here to replace them (see Michael Brown’s robbery). In a recent high-profile case in NYC, an Asian cop killed an innocent black guy in a stairwell; a black perp wanting revenge for other deaths at cops’ hands killed two minority cops (one Asian, one Hispanic) in retaliation for other police shootings. Basically, whites are barely in the picture anymore in terms of blacks.
Eff the university!
I suspect you’re right. This has all the makings of a Detroit or Watts. A traumatic event that leaves a permanent stain. And anyone who perceives either a physical danger from a radically activated student body or the deteriorating perceived workplace value of a diploma from such a school is simply gonna bolt.
I know Starbucks has opened a store in Ferguson, which I suspect they will regret but it makes for good theater I guess...but you’d open a business in Fergadishu?

Ever get a sense of relief when you realize the black person you encounter is from Africa?
“Roberts regretfully notes that around 1,500 of Mizzous two thousand full-time faculty members are white.”
11% black population in Mo.
25% of profs at Missou are black.
Instead of celebrating the achievement of a black faculty presence in excess of twice the state ratio they cry foul.
There is no pleasing these people.
No, but I am always impressed with the sense of respect that most working immigrants have for the opportunities available here. It is a great reminder and the reason I believe in an orderly, well thought out immigration system. Unfortunately, I believe that all immigration should be paused until we figure out what we have and what we need.
Who really cares about “pleasing” these fools? Confront and ridicule them.
You are just “lucky.” /s
Maneater because the school’s mascot is Tigers.
