Duke can't find students to serve on 'bias and hate' committee
Campus Reform ^ | April 4, 2017 | Anthony Gockowski

Duke University is struggling to find students to serve on a “bias and hate” advisory committee, despite last year’s protests calling for increased transparency within the school’s administration.

As Campus Reform reported last April, students had occupied an administrative building on campus, refusing to leave until a series of demands were met, most of which centered around calls for the termination of a controversial school administrator and a hike in the minimum wage for university staff members.

Even this is enough, students calling for increase in staff minimum wage.

Lets see... students pay at least part of their tuition.. going to staff salaries.

Morons

Should hit them with a special fee for that, like activity fees.

If I saw a resume of a kid who was on a university “bias and hate” committee, the resume would go right in the trash without further consideration. Any student who wants a job in the real world would be crazy to join something like this.

I believe you've figured out Duke's problem in recruiting.

I think that’s smart of the students. You would immediately be identified as a leftist.

I wouldn’t touch that with a ten-foot pole.

Better yet, being white, I am bred and born for it.

I am particularly biased against lamebrainery of which this is a prime example.

Can’t they just recruit them from the Campus Ministry of Truth?

Bias and hate Advisory Committee

Have the art department start silk screening Tee shirts and tube tops. Sell them at profit. Then the lefties can share radical selfies with whomever they desire.

Unless you are very wealthy, you will pay a fraction of that so long as your grades remain good. Duke has a huge endowment.

That must be the “professional” students referred to in the article. I’ve known some of these professional students who are in their late 30’s.

Professional students could be working people getting MBA’s.

There seem to be an awful lot of Activists creating unrest...remember this "National Socialist German Workers' Party? Nazi party for short. Tucker Carlson had such an union activist on last night...a man that makes $125,000.00 a year himself...but advocating higher wages for McDonald's workers...the man(?)works for the Unions. Higher wages mean fewer restaurants and fewer workers....this from Juan Williams "The Juan Williams​ says polls indicate that President Trump's "risk of impeachment is rising"

Good 'ol Juan spreading the October leak that should Trump win, (God forbid) he would shortly be impeached and someone else would take over.....Hillary? Hence the enormous propaganda for hate, name calling, lies about POTUS...parroting mendacious stories and the historic vilification of Mrs. Trump....how disgusting are these Socialists foreign and domestic who wanted so badly a non-capitalistic America.

I guess you’re talking scholarships?

That’s good to know, that students don’t leave with $200K in bills.

In general, universities in the U.S. are so expensive, though. My son was looking into a U.S. college, and it was just prohibitive, particularly given the exchange rate.

The schools here are much less expensive. Even McGill (the “Harvard of the north”), in Montreal, is around $4K - $5K.

We are paying for his tuition; we don’t want him to graduate with debt.

I am still paying for my student loans (was a “professional student”, LOL!. U of IL, Northwestern, U of Chicago and U of Colorado law school in Boulder).

Why are the tuition fees so high at U.S. schools? (even at public universities, AFAIK).
