They could shorten BIPOC to NW (no whites) and save themselves some ink.

This class will be so telling on the students transcript. It’s a definite, hire me and get multiple EEO complaints.

Do you have to learn to tie any noose-type knots for rock-climbing?,p> Maybe they use bowline hitches. It looks a good bit like a noose, but doesn't slip.

There used to be a cigarette commercial on TV that gave the sequence for tying them - "Over, Under, Around and Through." Per Google, appears that it was Pall Mall.

More efficient for sorting resumes than names with punctuation marks or misspellings.

Silver is another one.

Pulver rhymes with Silver.

Well, on the bright side (from a Leftist point of view) this
can all be attributed to Republicans down the road, because
everyone knows the parties reversed their racial policies.

LOL

Racists gonna do what they always have.

The Democrats lost their slaves. Now they want to turn us
into the very thing they lost.

Just can’t get it out of their blood.

They could have had a much shorter description with “white folks need not apply”. . .

Call me when they have a fire starter program for the limbless

Your characterization of Ithaca is funny given your screen name.

[upchuck]

So it does. Thank you.

That is a great idea! They are so far gone that they take everything seriously, including being terrified of a cartoon frog and thinking the “OK” sign is a white nationalist symbol.

[Mr. Jeeves]

I’d be curious if they had some Latino rock climbing expert...especially at Cornell.

They might be able to hire a Latino wall-climbing expert, if they stop by the Home Depot parking lot. :)

They should demonstrate equity in knots. All knots are equal knots and proper knots are white supremacy knots.

Ithaca is the City of Evil.

The new description states that the class is now “open to all” students who are “interested in learning rock climbing with this special focus."

As I’m sure it always was.

I’m sure the previous description didn’t exclude anyone.

Maybe “people of color” just aren’t interested in rock climbing. What are they going to do. Force them to sign up for the sake of inclusion?

Did they really think that excluding whites would automatically drive up POC registration for the class?

Why are people so willing to pay such idiots to (allegedly) educate their children?

Funny thing is, of the three people I ever knew who worked at Cornell, two profs and one staff, not one of them was this kind of idiot.

Cornell went to the devil starting in the late 1960s and never recovered.

I’ve been keeping my Cornell frat bros apprised of the university’s descent into woke madness, and happened to send that article to them yesterday!
