I’m waiting for more institutions of higher learning, corporations and television networks to realize what lousy business it is to appease the radical Communist minority who is trying to seize control of this country while pissing off the 63 million of us who actually work for a living and have disposable income.

I am looking forward to the Mizzou going-out-of-business sale, maybe I’ll get a cheap computer monitor or something.

I consulted in Higher Ed, in the belly of the beast, for about 5 min.

The flagship state schools like Mizzou, also the topnotch private schools (think Stanford, Duke, etc) have an unimaginable amount of fat that they can burn through before things get tight.

Of course there will be much wailing and protesting and gnashing of teeth when the Associate Deputy Director of the Department of Diversity (along with all of her staff) gets the sack .... but those choices will be made, or the admins higher up the food chain lose their comfy, virtual no-show jobs.

Mizzou, and other colleges like it, aren't going anywhere for awhile. But - I do enjoy watching them feel some pain from their poor decision making. If anything, it's an excellent warning to potential attendees, might make them think twice before dropping the equivalent of a 30-year mortgage on a worthless "Fill-in-the-blank Studies" degree.
