Yale cancelled classes?

No great loss.

Used to be a respectable school, long, long ago.

Yale is very hypocritical.

Do you think they would oppose the wall (border wall)? Just curious......

[The_Media_never_lie]

Wait a minute....

Don’t you think there is a CHANCE they cancelled classes to SUPPORT Kavenaugh?

He being an alumni and all?

Are some at Yale Law supporting Kavanaugh?

I guess that's just the law school.

I thought maybe undergrads would commemorate the day with a mass nude-in in the old campus quadrangle.

Yale law professors took it on themselves to counsel students as to what kind of people judges wanted as clerks - what kind of women appealed most to male judges - so that the students could get the valued clerkship positions.

Typical careerist get-ahead move by Tiger Mom go-getter Professor Amy Chua.

Now the professors are accused of "grooming" students for judges who are made out to be pervs.

So Yale feels implicated in what's not really a sexual scandal but a mess of their own making.

I suppose there are a few conservative professors and students, but the school is even less inclined now to listen to them now.

WFB was instrumental in my conversion to Conservatism. Watching Firing Line with a note pad, writing down every other word he used b/c I hadn’t heard that word before, and looking it up later; he and Bill Ssfire were masters. God rest their souls.

And Yale was deeply rooted in our family tradition; all the men were *Elis* and Aunt Margaret was a grad of Yale Medical; even great Aunt Mary was the first woman grad of the New Haven Paint & Clay Club [later Yale Art School], an accomplished artist in her own right in the late 1800s.

I must say, it breaks my heart that the long held values of Yale are subverted by the radical left. But that is not unique to Yale.

I’ll bet the “fugly” was off the charts in that place.
