.....Harvard Professors Cancel Classes as Students Feel Blue After Trump Win.....
Something like that happened in 2016! Then the plush animals came out!
I hope that many STEM professors did NOT cancel classes! There’s nothing like a good Organic Chemistry lecture or Biology Lab to keep one’s mind off of politics!
All the more reason to consider sending your children to trade schools, preferably non woke ones.
The more expensive the university is the more likely you will find five types of students.
1. The ones who's parents are paying their paying their full shot. They have never had a job and if they do not have a job already waiting are there to "network". Because they have no concept of how the real world works they are unbelievably ignorant.
2. "Student" athletes. All they have to worry about is staying healthy long enough to be drafted into pro sports. They have been protected from everything since they showed talent at playing a game.
3. The Foreign student. Usually their government is paying their shot and they will jump when ever their government says.
4. The ones who are there on loans. Oh you sweet summer children.
5. The ones who are there on Merit Scholarship. They will do what ever is the "in thing" as long as it does not make waves enough to get their scholarship canceled.
There were two types of students you usually do not see any more although they will pop up occasionally. The GI Bill student and the "working my way through" student who generally has some sort of grant or their tuition is picked up by who they are working for. Generally do not get involved in student activism. There is no up side. Do not poke them too hard however. They have nice sharp teeth and can take very large bites out of those who push them to far.
Privileged and brainwashed anyway.
Normal constraints do not, and are not, applied to them because the college does not want to lose that revenue stream.
I see folks brag about kid going ivy or duke or Tulane etc
I just smile
In re 2: The ones who are good enough to make the team but not good enough to get drafted are there to network also.
5 arrested, 3 on CCC basketball team, after suspected gang assault at college
Note this bit...
...Three of the men are considered juvenile offenders and cannot be named...
The three men are 18 YO.
Juvenile offender status...?
I wonder which three men are on the basketball team...
