Social ontology is the ultimate disability.

So, what’s new? Just go to Walmart and look at handicapped parking and the mess it is in. Fat or old gets you a spot and WMT will not allow local LE to issue citations in the parking lots. So, Harvard may as well join mom and pop...

--- "1 in 5 Harvard Grads Claim to be ‘Disabled’ "

Given the meme / truth that "liberalism is a mental disorder," that number seems a low estimate....

My father was on Iwo Jima and Okinawa. I can’t see me telling him I was “Overwhelmed and anxious”

Getting a proper diagnosis of a learning disability is very expensive and time consuming followed by decades of specialist tutors and at home scaffolding. I doubt these students have true learning disabilities. There are learning differences not all are disabilities.

I believe anyone who graduates from harvard is disabled because they attended harvard. What a stain on one’s self.

“””” 91% of students graduated with honors in 2001,””””


This reminds me of when I attended my niece’s high school graduation in Colorado in 2009.

There were 200 students in her graduating class and 120 of those students graduated with honors.

---- "Since the DEI degree and department is such a failure, colleges will just swap in fake disability preferences.they rename everything this is the Walz plan."

To my view, many decades of "English" classes and then expanding into "liberal arts" classes, anything that serves to topple liberty in favor of socialism / Communism has been shoehorned into curricula. As the observation by many states, "diversity" does not allow diversity of political opinion.

Continuing to rename the failures will not serve long term, but it surely seems the academic Left has no long term goal in mind, nut rather "revolution now."

It is such an ultimately skeptical view, because the Leftists pulling this stunt all want for themselves fancy salaries for "words" while holding the blue-collar world which actually does real labor in contempt.

They need to do like that dude in Spinal Tap. Move the highest GPA up to 11.0, and only honor grads can get 11. Then the rest can get 4.0 and above.

Yeah, and Surveys indicate that around 20–25% of Yale’s undergraduate student population identify as LGBTQ+.

One is tempted to ask — is this explosion of LGBTQ students a result of changing genetics ( born that way ), or societal pressure?

Or has it always been this number since the university’s inception, only hidden then, but now coming out of the closet?

They weren’t disabled before Harvard.

Did Harvard disable them, or

Did Harvard’s education reveal to them that they were disabled.

>Note - Remember this when interviewing Harvard grads.
