>>Seriously, where would you send a kid today?

Community college for the first two years. There are enough veterans and working adults in those classes to squelch this kind of stupidity. By the time they are Juniors and ready for University, they will have been indoctrinated in good citizenship instead of bad.

The orchestrated destruction of higher education and parents are paying for this.

My son tried community college, but his heart wasn’t in it. He got a part-time job, slinging feed at the local Tractor Supply, three years ago.

Now, he is in management and in line for promotion to store manager.

There are marvelous opportunities for anyone willing to work.

So you think republicans are the source of this fanaticism by a gaggle of demrat party psychopaths.

"Assistant Dean (at Cornell) Tells a Project Veritas Investigative Journalist that the University Would Allow an ISIS Terrorist to Hold a 'Training Camp' on Campus, Saying: 'It Would be Like Bringing in a Coach to do a Training on a Sports Team.'"

Substitute "rapist" or "Klan member" for "terrorist" and watch the reaction.

Your post makes good sense.

I am an adjunct at the local Community college teaching Computer aided drafting. I tell them the first day of class that I am not politically correct, if they are easily offended to drop the course and take it at the Community college over the mountain (1 Hour away). They are expected to be in my class on time and prepared to learn, I don't give private instructions and I don't tolerate stupidity.

One student threatened to go tot he dean. I pulled out the cell phone and said: "Do you want to call her or should I, she is on speed dial to take care of imbeciles like you?"

He never came back.

——Community college for the first two years——

Perhaps the most important aspect of the first semester at a community college is that it allows one to flunk out cheaply

Well they wanted a college education for everyone even if you never were able to pass a grade in highschool or even went to high school at all and this is the direct result. We can see the hot bed cradle of black racist theology while the white priveledged white students make every attempt possible to ly down and kiss thier a##es

I would list that as a side benefit. But it does allow one to get one’s first 60 credits very cheaply. Anything that works against Big University, Inc is good.

It’s no joke. My alma mater, one of the Seven Sisters, is now admitting men as long as they “identify” as women. The problem became public when “Dan” wanted to become President of the Student Body....

We need conservative ONLINE universities—like Kahn Academy. Bricks and mortar are being funded by the Feds. The only way out is to use electrons.

Online classes from Hillsdale might be an alternative.

Plus, Heritage also has excellent instruction online.

I have finally discovered a positive thing about getting old. At least one won’t have to put up with idiocy like this for too long.

If not corrected, anybody infected with liberalism eventually spins out of control into the realm of complete insanity. That’s the logical conclusion of liberal “philosophy” where there can be no harsh words or people made to feel bad.

Their first attempts at getting a job post-school may prove interesting.
