University cancels classes to confront racism on its campus
College Fix ^ | November 2, 2018 | Daniel Payne

A Catholic university recently cancelled classes for the day in order to address the alleged problem of racism on its campus, with the school also bringing in a professor from California “who focuses on diversity and inclusion” in order to speak to the students this week.

The University of St. Thomas, a Catholic school in St. Paul, Minnesota, gave students the day off of classwork as part of its plan to “[take] action after a racist message was recently written on a student’s door,” KSTP reports.

“[take] action after a racist message was recently written on a student’s door,”

OK, anyone want to take bets on who actually wrote the message?

A special day set aside to tell White people that they are the problem and that all bad things are their fault? And what makes this special day different from every other day?

No doubt the diversity and inclusion proof will solve the problem.
Ban all whites and or Trump supporters from participating in any discussions about “race” or should I say “the race”?

Tell me the ethnicity of the targeted student and I will tell you who done it. It is like the stat “50% of hate crime threats are anti Semitic.” Does that include the 2,000 threats made by an Israeli Jewish teenager?

And if they did find out it was the student him/herself, no charges will be filed as the incident, albeit a hoax, would have served to “raise awareness”.

We’ve been through this before. Student wrote message. Student is member of privileged minority group, student forgiven, cries of racism now directed at innocent Whites.

A few months later, repeat.

And to think people actually pay big money to attend these places...LOL
I can remember a time when the word “Professor” actually meant something. It commanded respect, intelligence, honor, etc. Today? Not so much....just another hi-jacked lib word for a bunch of losers.

It may even cost more than that. Many graduates from my children’s Catholic high school attend here. I would (and have) sent my children to large state flagship universities with thriving Newman centers instead of St. Thomas. They have built Muslim prayer rooms to attract wealthy muslim students from overseas that can pay the full tuition out of pocket. Teaching students to imitate Christ through service while upholding the teachings of the church, does not seem to be a priority here.

Will this Catholic university find the teachings of Christianity offensive to any non-Christian students? Or have they already quit teaching about Christianity?

Do they feel cleansed now that they’ve cancelled classes for a day? These idiots are a joke.
