Can’t make this stuff up - he tried to say.
Just change their anthem to that “We are the World” song from the 1980’s
that’s “inclusive,” and also soft, saccharine, and meaningless.
Will be a perfect fit for what they will ultimately achieve.
Best thing that could happen to this country is to obliterate all of the Ivy League schools and any others turning out ‘elites’.
No I think the first was right on the money. As in making up pandering to perpetual pansies who are without hope and shouldn’t be anywhere near adult higher education.
I’m not a Harvard man and didn’t know the song, so I looked it up.
Fair Harvard! we join in thy Jubilee throng,
And with blessings surrender thee o’er
By these Festival-rites, from the Age that is past,
To the Age that is waiting before.
O Relic and Type of our ancestors’ worth,
That hast long kept their memory warm,
First flow’r of their wilderness! Star of their night!
Calm rising thro’ change and thro’ storm.
Farewell! be thy destinies onward and bright!
To thy children the lesson still give,
With freedom to think, and with patience to bear,
And for Right ever bravely to live.
Let not moss-covered Error moor thee at its side,
As the world on Truth’s current glides by,
Be the herald of Light, and the bearer of Love,
Till the stock of the Puritans die.
Sounds to me that a lot of this no longer applies to Harvard, or a lot of universities, and they should just chuck the whole thing.
What are they going to do with “10,000 Men of Harvard”?
Fair Harvard? How racist!!
From “Fair Harvard” to “Unfair Affirmative Action Harvard”.
Changing the anthem makes sense as, quite clearly, the stock of the Puritans has in fact died and been replaced by pussies.
How about “til the stock of the liberal nutcases die”? That pretty much includes everyone at Harvard I think.
Only at Haaavaaaad! (I wish)
And this is supposed to be an educational institution. Now they are essentially erasing the history of their own institution - if it were a racist phrase or something that would make sense...but it is just a historic phrase and they want to change it for “inclusiveness”? This is beyond stupid. I thought people at Harvard were supposed to be intelligent?
This removal of that last line reminds me of Winston Smith at the Ministry of Truth. The record is being "rectified" in order to alter Harvard's unseemly past.
