She has betrayed, and will continue to betray, the students in that she believes in them less than anyone else and urges that the bar should be lowered for minorities.

In 1921,ex-KKK leader,Lothrop Stoddard wrote that blacks were morons and would always need whites or Asians to lead them...He was working at Planned parenthood at the time he wrote that...
In 2017,democrat Al Gore stated publicly that AFRICANS needed to have their fertility “managed”.......Almost 100 years later and democrats still think the same....

Talk about having a bowel obstruction in her brain!

First - there are plenty of non-white, that is non-European descent, males who excel in engineering. I think the real problem is that engineering does not favor those with African ancestry. But, does that make it unfair? For those black folks who can master engineering, why not cheer them on instead of nay-saying them?

The same goes for women.

In the past, if our society and evolution of newer and improved products was dependent on the idiocy of liberals with chips on their shoulders, we would still be using horse and buggies, and old-fashioned boilers with wringer washing machines.

There is a joke among Chemical Engineers; if you see the Chemical Engineer running out of the plant, you want to be in front of him.

That reminds me of a Dave Attell bit:

"If you see a man running down the street naked, you run with that man. 'Cause there is some scary s**t coming the other way."

Purdue is definitely tough. My daughter had second thoughts in her first year as those two semesters are like engineering boot camp. She toughed it out, though, and is happy that she did.

Purdue is still a traditional model when it comes to colleges. Mitch Daniels has done a good job maintaining that. They've even taken a hit on their sports teams because they actually still require the athletes to do well academically.

You're absolutely right, too, about the Asian students. Holy smoke there's a lot of them there! And from what I understand, it's not cheap. They actually pay a premium to attend, in addition to the added cost of the distances involved. But from what I understand, most of them are from the Chinese party apparatchik families, so they have more money than most.
