A Wells professor responded to the study calling Republicans "stupid" and calling for Republicans to be forcibly lobotomized.

If all of us Republicans were forcibly lobotomized, what would we be? DemocRATS.

[CounterCounterCulture]

So much for diverrrrrrsity and tolerance and women's rights and choice...

[RLK]

Who was it here a few days ago that posted a blurb proclaiming liberalism was dead?

[weegee]

I'm so sure that we will soon be hearing Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon speaking out about the Chill Wind on America's college campuses stiffling contrary opinions.

BUMP!

Well,now we know how conservatives are to be treated if the liberals have enough power.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

Another look at the Left's lock on education.

[nygoose]

I think that Conservatives should begin to move toward treating liberals as the enemy. We should consider treating them in a hostile manner in ordinary social situations. Let's take the civility out of the culture when we deal with them. What have we got to lose? They are not our friends in any way and would probably send us to the camps if they thought they could get away with it.

It would have been more fun had the gals gotten recognition before they released their report.

[Free Trapper]

You mean treat liberals like they treat anyone with any moral values?

They'd wet 'emselves! :O)

[Dr. Scarpetta]

BUMP

Wells College Student Life - Student Organizations -- A sample:

Wells Democrats: This group works to promote a greater understanding of the political process. Specific activities include voter registration and campaigning. It is a great opportunity for all students to learn more about politics.

Lesbian, Bisexual, Questioning, Transgendered and Allies (L.B.Q.T.A.): The purpose of L.B.Q.T.A. is to assist the entire Wells community to ensure the inclusion of every lesbian, bisexual, queer, questioning, transgendered and allied persons and to eliminate homophobia and heterosexism at Wells College by providing direct service, referral, programming, outreach, support and education.

Model U.N. Club: This club teaches the processes and functions of the United Nations through participation in the annual simulation programs at Princeton and Harvard University.

student government (known as "Collegiate")

They can't even spell. It's "Collective"

I am a Wells College alum and am not surprised by this decision. When I attended (back when dinosaurs ruled the earth) the perspective was overwhelmingly liberal. What was valuable is that although there were many liberal professors there, there were enough who were able to think unconventionally. The English professor was conservative and he was fabulous- a great professor and a great human being. I can't think of another conservative among the faculty.

The organizations were headed by radical and intolerant narcissists. This was actually helpful as a)it was a blueprint of how "good intentions" bulldoze over the wellbeing of those individuals you purport to help and b) it was a great lesson in how to live as a freethinking individual in an intolerant environment. There are other lessons as well, but just how much do you folks want to hear anyway?

What in samhill is an "allied" person? Are they associated with Allied Vans? Do they move gay furniture? What am I? An "axis" person?

Anyone have a clue?

[TheRightGuy]

You mean treat liberals like they treat anyone with any moral values?

Absolutely!! If you don't have anything nice to say, say it to a liberal.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

I guess "allied" means people who support their lifestyle.

[Free Trapper]

I think "allied" is PC-BS speach for what you or I would use the word "perverted".

[Free Trapper]

In this case "other perverted".
