I’ll wager you they’d have no problem with paying Ted Bundy to discuss child rape.
Student government sources said they were asked not to divulge Palin’s fee, but said it would have been $15,000 to $30,000. ...................... Ewwwwwwww! sounds like more knots for the Libs panties.
Or Magic Johnson about AIDS prevention
Heh, heh, there they go again. It’s just college students showing their Liberal tolerance for diversity of opinion. NOT!
I would hazard a guess that it was not the students (i.e., “undergraduates”) that had a problem with Bristol appearing; rather, it was the administration, faculty, and staff of the university.
Can’t deviate from the party line, y’know.
I’ve got no problem with Bristol Palin.
I do have a problem with the kind of “student fees” behind this fiasco - they’re routinely assessed of all students across the board at most universities, and then “student activity boards” (run by typical student government-type tools) and / or administrative committees dole out the accumulated money to all sorts of speakers and entertainers, as well as favored student activity groups.
If you’re a student, you’re generally forced to pay for this stuff, even if you think it’s mostly crap (which it often is). Let the lousy student organizations collect money from their own members, invite whom they please, and leave everybody else alone.
Keep it up.
What goes around, comes around ya know.
Hey, let them do what they want, after their splendid education, they will be equipped for nothing more meaningful, monstly, then applying for food stamps. They can then chat amongst themselves on the net about how smart they are and tolerent too.
I’ll bet they have spent student fees on a lot worse items than a Bristol Palin speech...
"Gay "Glee" actor Chris Colfer and his boyfriend on the show, Darren Criss, lovingly put their heads together on the cover."
I agree.
I got to question the wisdom of paying Bristol Palin $20 G to talk about teen pregnancy.
What's she going to say? Don't have a baby out-of-wedlock as a teenager or you will have to take a $20 G an hour job telling college kids not to have babies out of wedlock as teenagers?
It would have been a plus had she asked for travel expenses only and went and talked.
They probably would have tossed pies at her anyway.
I guess I could handle few pies in the face for a nice paycheck like that though. LOL
Dittos to that.
Who have they paid to speak in the past - and how much??
our colleges are in trouble at several levels, this being one.
College costs could be lowered by eliminating fluff like student activity fees. If a group wants to bring Bristol to campus, it should raise its own money to do so.

I just don’t know which is the dumbest/???
Or Al Gore about saving energy.
