College Fix ^ | May 1, 2017 | Nathan Rubbelke

Racial unrest has wracked St. Olaf College, a small campus in rural Minnesota, with students essentially taking over the campus with aggressive protests that forced administrators to cancel classes on Monday so demonstrators could air their grievances in a day-long sit in.

Inmates taking over the asylum. All this was ignited by "racist" notes being left on windshields of cars. 99.9% chance the incidents are hoaxes.

I would agree with your assessment, and then I would EXPEL the Whole Bunch for being too immature for Adulthood.

Nothing new. Happens every year with the spring thaw.
I wonder if there ARE any Minnesotans of color, so to speak. No one in his right mind would live there from September through May. If the shoe fits....

Look at the video.
Expel the violent and charge them with crimes.
Give the occupiers 24 hours to leave or face expulsion.
Then bring in United airlines flight attendants to beat them and remove their butts with force.

What a shame for tuition paying students who are close to graduation
But if no one is getting an education- then shut it down except for seniors finishing their credits and provide police protection for their classes

Online education is looking ever better

Give them free tuition, paid for by Whitey’s full tuition, let them in with their failing grades, and they still hate Whitey.

Every student should go to the bursar’s office and formally demand a refund for that day of classes which the college failed to provide.

No one has filed a report with the police.

Racial unrest?

I knew they should never have allowed Finnish kids enroll there.

Those darn Finn hoodlums from the Mannerheim frat are always taking all of the best Lutefisk from the cafeteria just to spite the rest of us!

There are tons of “Minnesotans of Color” in the Minneapolis/St Paul area. In addition to a large urban black population (I believe Minnesota actively recruited blacks from the slave states after the civil war), they have a growing Somalian population (not sure why), and a large oriental population (not sure why).

Per “Citydata”, Minneapolis (a city with 400k people) is 59% white.

This breaks my heart. I am an alum of St Olaf. I graduated I. 1994 when it still was a respectable school. Sadly this wonderful liberal arts school is now dead to me. The other college in Northfield is Carleton which was the previous bastion of moon battery in southern Minnesota (Paul Wellsrobe taught there). My only option is that this college will not dry a dime of my support. No longer Christian. No longer college. RIP St Olaf. Once a glorious college on the hill. Now nothing more than a dump.

Lutheran Social Services has brought in most of Minnesota’s foreign invaders, starting many years ago.
