It's not really Bollinger's fault that the students and faculty at Columbia are neo-Marxist fools.

What should you do with these students? Every last one of them should be at least suspended for a year.

Actually, they should all be expelled.

Nice letter. Glad it was released to the public.

Bollinger is a weasel and a liberal. He's also politically correct. He will no nothing about this. Columbia is home of fascist liberal thugs.

Gee, d'you think Keith Olbermann will name Bollinger "Worst Person in the World" any time soon?

Sadly Bollinger has a long history of accepting and excusing such violent anti-social behaviour. Clearly the Board of Trustees of the University are satisfied with his lack of control over the violence.

The banners were indeed in "several languages", including the one that read "No one is ilegal". Saw it on Fox News with my own eyes. While I realize that academic standards are slipping badly even at "Ive League" schools, it made me wonder how many of the protestors/disruptors were actually Columbia students. To be sure, Columbia students were active participants, but I'm sure one or more outside groups had a big hand in this. The obnoxious young woman (Columbia student) who was interviewed on Fox appeared to have been professionally trained in media-handling with hardcore ideological doublespeak.

Good letter, John. I didn't know you were an Eli. My son is dying to go to Princeton!

Mr. Armor,
Would you mind pinging me on articles relating to the Ivy League?
I run the unofficial Columbia Ping list and want to start an Ivy League Pong List.

The Eighth Wonder of the World is that liberal cesspits like Columbia continue to get students willing to pay $160,000 for a degree from same.

I just happened by, three weeks after you posted this, and want to commend you for an excellent treatment of the subject. The advent of thuggery on what were once prestigious institutions of "higher education," would once have chilled every educated American. But that was before the velvet glove imposition of our home grown version of National Socialist ideology throughout much of American Academia. The ideological thugs are now so well entrenched, the old fashioned type of street bullies can now come out and openly strut their stuff.

We need to look at these antics as one more wakeup call to the need to try to recapture lost resources.
