Schadenfreude!!! The Koch brothers should make a deal to buy up this glorified community college run by Marxists, fire everyone and start a new school where free thinkers are welcomed.

Same thing happened to University of Missouri. They’ve had to close dorms, etc., due to lack of enrollment. Love it.

It really isn’t meaningful until they start laying off staff.

close it down!!

5% enrollment drop is just the beginning, parents should NOT agree to let their kids go there.....

(I know Lefturd parents won’t care, but saner parents should put their feet down firmly and tell their kids that Evergreen is NOT on the list of options)

“The New York Times reports that freshman enrollment is down 35 percent, requiring the university to slash budgets, cut positions, and turn dorms into hotels. Evergreen College, which featured similar race riots earlier this spring, “is the only state four-year higher education institution to see enrollment drop steeply since 2011 despite wide-open admission standards,” according to the Seattle Times. NYT attributes Mizzou’s slide to anger on both sides, from parents and students frustrated the university didn’t go far enough in acquiescing to student demands to hire more people of politically preferred skin colors to parents and students frustrated the university let students rampage about campus.”

They had to lay off over 400 employees....

“....located in Olympia, Washington, USA. Founded in 1967, Evergreen was formed to be an experimental and non-traditional college. “

Experiment fail.

If I remember correctly, there is even a statue dedicated in her honor. Hopefully it is flat, with some CAT D9 tracks on it.

High school graduates in the family who don’t have a clue with what they wants to do with their life (or worse yet, want to study psychology)?

Send ‘em over to Mickey D’s, WallyMart, Home Depot or Ace Hardware for a year. At least they’ll learn something useful. Let them see what the world is about.

What? Did it really take this long for donors to know what a bunch of flaming Leftists were using their donations to brainwash students into Leftist activism?
