Mizzou is funded by state tax money. Mizzou is advancing a socialist, post-modern agenda that is a direct and present danger to the citizens of the state.
No employer in his right mind would hire a Mizzou graduate. Given the pervasive political correctness and how it is imposed on students who are forced to stand still and be indoctrinated and scolded, it is difficult to see how anyone who objects to this agenda could stay enrolled at the school. He would be ejected for not cooperating with the institutional indoctrination.
As far as I am concerned as a taxpayer, SHUT IT DOWN until the citizens can gain control and restore rational thought.
There are plenty of other undergrand programs elsewhere that students could transfer to. Far better to have no Mizzou than to have what we have today.
As you say, Mizzou is funded by taxpayer money. Part of Mizzou’s problems stem from the fact that Missouri’s conservative taxpayers have elected veto-proof conservative majorities in both houses of Missouri’s General Assembly. These majorities are not happy with the University’s past actions and are writing appropriation bills that reflect that unhappiness.
The problem with that is: Who gets to determine “rational thought”?
See, this is why the 1st Amendment is so beautiful. No one has to top-down decide what is “rational thought” or good thoughts or beneficial thoughts or whatever. People vote silently with their feet and their wallets.
It is a beautiful thing. I am loving it.
