Yale Protesters Demand School Give Them $8 Million, Or Else
Daily Caller ^ | November 13, 2015 | Blake Neff

Unhappy with a series of small concessions from the administration, protesters at Yale University have released a new list of demands that include firing people they don’t like and giving their favored programs a budget increase of at least $8 million a year.

The new demands, released by a group calling itself Next Yale, were read aloud to Yale president Peter Salovey Thursday night by protesters who marched to his front door at midnight. The group says the demands are necessary to “reduce the intolerable racism that students of color experience on campus every day.” Salovey is given until Nov. 18 to respond.

As evidence of Yale's hostile racial climate, the demands cite a widely debunked alleged exclusion of black women from a party hosted at Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) fraternity. There is substantial evidence this alleged segregation did not happen.

Do any of their eight million dollars in demands include remedial grammar lessons?

It’s time to shut down all of these high cost daycare centers. Send the kiddies home to mommy and daddy and let them put up with their childish BS.

My prediction: These SJW wackos are going to start shaking down university’s endowments. Some endowments are in the billions of dollars. That’s just pure money sitting there, not even being spent.

I meant, “Top 10 in the country,” and “Ivy League”. Stanford is top 10 by most accounts, and not Ivy League.

" That’s just pure money sitting there, not even being spent."

You are brilliant, EEE. It is always about the shakedown and the Benjamin's. Harvard's is something like 20 billion they were investing via a hedge fund wonk that had uber returns. They start dolling this out, at somepoint they have no seed corn to expand, which ties into the lefts "de-growth" policy, it is a win win for them. Either that or they want a Old Testament "Jubilee" and they want the endowments to pay their student loans. This is not the thought process of these useful idiots, this is bigger, and whomever is doing it is 4 or 5 moves ahead of us...

“Salovey is given until Nov. 18 to respond.”

Soo, what happens if he doesn’t respond or says, “No.”?
