Very disappointed in my Alma Mater . . .
Any time bribery is used, I’m suspicious. Instead, they should do an educational seminar on what it is and how it works, then host a debate by pro and con teams. It should be an educational event.
I think the “vaccine” crowd is afraid the “science” will unravel under scrutiny.
I love Auburn. AU has great students who are mostly conservative but far from being activists or even politically-minded. The admin and faculty are overwhelmingly Leftists.
There are every manner of woke activist groups on campus. They support LGBTQP everything. They even have a group that fights “Period Poverty” and shames America for not believing menstrual issues are a good topic for discussions. They shame America for not providing free feminine hygiene products. They are unaware that in the USSR when Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman in space over 99 percent of Soviet women cut cloth to make their own hygiene products. The same was true two decades later when Svetlana Savitskaya became the first woman to make a space walk. Yet all of the Period Poverty movement has an anti-American bent.
There is a poster in Thatch Hall in the History Department hallway that decried the “standard sexuality” of the 1950s and laments the fear of communism of that era.
It is not surprising that Auburn flashes messages on campus with United Rental highway signs to further browbeat the students into constant mask wearing. And this latest bribery to get a dubious shot is more-of-the-same from Auburn’s admin.
