Over half of the statehouses are controlled by Republicans. Why aren’t Republican governors and state legislatures demanding accountability from administrators, professors and staff at state funded colleges and universities. They have the ability to fire state employees.

"Mothering" and [ugh]"Fathering" are taboo terms yet "Mother-Scholar" seems to be en vogue for female liberal journalists. Juxtaposed to this, the Vagina Monologues is now microaggressive because it excludes 'females' without vaginas....

It seems liberal academia has turned into the Ouroboros

"A Professor at Polk State College has allegedly failed a humanities student after she refused to concede that Jesus is a ‘myth' or that Christianity oppresses women during a series of mandatory assignments at the Florida college. According to a press release from the Liberty Counsel, a non-profit public interest law firm, Humanities Professor Lance 'Lj' Russum gave a student a 'zero' on four separate papers because the 16-year-old did not 'conform to his personal worldviews of Marxism, Atheism, Feminism, and homosexuality.' The law firm has called for a full, private investigation of the professor and the course curriculum."

I have to wonder how this professor would have handled a Muslim student with similar views on Islam.

Would a female Muslim student that advocated wearing a hijab and female genital mutilation have be failed for not viewing those practices as oppressive to women.

"Assistant Dean (at Cornell) Tells a Project Veritas Investigative Journalist that the University Would Allow an ISIS Terrorist to Hold a 'Training Camp' on Campus, Saying: 'It Would be Like Bringing in a Coach to do a Training on a Sports Team.'"

We have entered the Golden Age of Idiocy.

Two of my alma maters solicit me regularly for alumni donations. I have not contributed since they both attacked the Boy Scouts of America (both universities kicked out the Boy Scouts from all facilities because they would not allow homosexual scout leaders). When the callers ask me why, and I tell them, they have no response.

Once upon a time, a kid went to college to get an education. Now a kid goes to college to become an *sshole.

Times have changed.

The power might be with the schools Board of Regents. We had 2 Conservatives run here in MI to get on the Board of U of M, I know one got on I am not sure if the other one did. That seems to be the place to begin to bring sanity to these failing ( IMHO ) institutions. Now where is the freakin' RNC on this? Why aren't they looking for candidates to fill these slots? Is that crickets I hear?.....

“College Students Say Remembering 9/11 Is Offensive to Muslims

Well not remembering 9/11 is offensive to Americans and since this is America and not Muslimastan, screw the muslims.......

Fortunately here in Michigan we’re doing away with straight ticket voting and people are going to have to start looking at their ballots again.

Currently if you vote straight ticket, races with more than one republican running are counted as a “no vote”.

The democrats are screaming bloody murder over the loss of straight ticket voting. They know that a sizable number of their voters are too lazy or stupid to vote beyond a couple of the top races.

As the father of three girls (thankfully now grown & married), I have no problem with this one:

11) "According to Coastal Carolina University, sex is only consensual if both parties are completely sober and if consent is not only present, but also enthusiastic. This is a troubling standard that converts many ordinary, lawful sexual encounters into sexual assault, and it should frighten any student at CCU."

Mrs, BN has a slightly different list:

"or sharpening her knife."

Wisconsin Lutheran College in Milwaukee and Concordia University Chicago are where my children are or have been at and this stuff is not on those campuses. Look small, look faith-based and you can find a good education.
