How many Yale students does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Just one. She holds up the bulb and waits for the world to turn around her.

I thought it was two; but they had to be very small Yale students.

I think you’re 100% correct. You could say that I respect your authoritah.

Seriously though, I was just remarking yesterday how it’s funny that the folks who say America is responsible for the terror attacks against us always cite stuff like defending Arabs from genocidal maniacs or defending the only democracy in the region from genocide, and they never think that the sort of twits that demand burkhas and 11th Century sexual mores would ever be ticked off by stuff like this, our national love affair with gay culture, etc. Not that any of that is an excuse for terrorism, it’s just interesting what the standards of the Left are.

I just researched Yale as a potential school for my kids to attend. They accept roughly 5% of the 20,000+ kids who apply to go there.

Don’t hold your breath about the girl being expelled or put into a mental institution or her adviser being fired, or Yale in any way doing something about this.

I just crossed Yale off our list. I’m starting to wonder if any of the most highly regarded universities are worthy to have my children as students.

It’s not for nothing that Robert Heinlein called this period in history “The Crazy Years.”

I think your word choice says it all. Evil. I guess you could toughen your description by adding the adjective “extreme”.

And you mean to say the NEA would have paid me for what I've been doing for free since I was four years old?????

Only if it's in Hillary's handwriting.

“Perhaps my feelings are misplaced....”

Perhaps a bit! I believe that there is culpability enough to go around in this situation, but remember that we are talking about this adult student making a personal choice.

We don’t want her to get away with the excuse, “Well, the school said it was OK!”

“Schvarts” is, of course, one spelling of the (German-derived) Yiddish word for “black.”

Prediction: This girl’s going to be living in a locked ward of a mental institution within the next ten years.

You can bet on it.

Can anyone explain why this “art project” is any different from making lampshades from the tattooed skins of Nazi Concentration Camp victims?

The Amalgamated Union of Turkey Baster Operators is not amused. The Yalie was NOT a dues paying member.

Here's one piece of this "lady's" "art".


Aliza Shvarts. Disarticulation. 12 in. x 12 in. x 24in. Plaster, vaseline, towels, rubber bands, latex gloves

Seriously, what IS that?

As for the main article...well, I think 'evil' covers it well enough.

Art? Please.

Too, there’s nothing I can say now that can come anywhere near the Hell that she’s brought on to herself.

I can’t find any reference that says the lampshade stories are true.

Here’s one site at which I read about the topic:
http://www.straightdope.com/columns/040604.html

You’ve heard the paraphrase that we will know obscenity when we see it? Well, hearing about it, this so-called art is an obscenity. The girl is a serial killer, imo.

The lampshade (far right) may not have been made of human skin, but the other objects of "art" found in the possession of Ilse Koch were definitely human skin.

The ironic thing is that this POS woman from Yale is most likely Jewish!

“Yes, no doubt, Miss Shvarts and her art are going to be major topics for discussion in places as diverse as New Haven, Manhattan, Paris, Riyadh, Kabul, Baghdad, The Gaza Strip and Teheran.”

Yup. And I wonder how many more Americans will die as a result.
