Chaos on campus: Students protest, call for heads to roll at schools around country

Chaos swept over college campuses around the nation Thursday, as the ousters of the embattled University of Missouri system's president and chancellor earlier this week were followed by dozens of other student protests calling for more faculty and staff heads to roll.

A popular professor at Missouri said he resigned Wednesday after students lashed out at him for pledging to give a scheduled exam amid spiraling protests, but the university said Thursday it rejected his resignation.

The Dean of Students at Claremont McKenna College in California, Mary Spellman, resigned in a letter to the community Thursday, after some at the school called for hunger strikes over what they perceived as a lack of support for students of color.

Students at Ithaca College in New York, Yale University and Vanderbilt University in Tennessee were also calling to ax administrators, and even more campuses were pledging solidarity with the burgeoning social justice movement.

As many as 20 other campuses around the country were planning marches Thursday, including St. John's, Syracuse and Columbia universities in New York, Harvard and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Disaffected students at Loyola University in Chicago and the University of Michigan were preparing a list of demands and threatening action, according to The Seattle Times. Black alumni at Georgia Tech were crafting a letter to that university's president, urging a continued commitment to diversity.

Kent State did not result in nearly enough deaths. Had there been more, Obama and Hillary would not or rather could not have risen to power.

The French Revolution, like the Bolshevik Revolution, was actually by the peasants/working class. Led by elites interested solely in power, of course. The leaders of both exploited real concerns against the monarchy.

In America, the new Bolsheviks are attempting to use the idle, lazy class against the productive class.

It isn’t going to work out the same way.

The left in this country has a lot more in common with royalty than they do with working class joes. They’re either on the dole or rich suburban kids.

We’re the working class. The right wing makes this country work. Additionally, we’re the majority of cops and military. Especially combat arms.

Bring it on, Bolsheviks. Use your welfare fed/gender studies shock troops against us.

They’re going to find out that war is the hardest job of all, and an EBT card is worthless on the battlefield.

I’ve been seeing ads for the answer some folks have to the race problem: a concert.

Yeah, a bunch of drunken and stoned idiots listening to loud music ... THAT is gonna fix everything.

Cartman and his hippie busters need to be on call...
