Trouble is brewing at Yale University for a number of reasons..
Yale University appears to be in the midst of a meltdown. You may find that irrelevant, or even amusing, but you shouldn’t. Because Yale’s sad condition, unfortunately, is common to many of our most important institutions.
As I wrote here last week, Yale’s governing board, faced with a challenge by an outsider, secretly rewrote its rules as the votes were counted, so as to ensure no more unapproved candidates.
Why is Yale so eager to avoid outside scrutiny?
There was also a scandal about a speaker at Yale who discussed “the psychopathic problem of the white mind” and talked about emptying her revolver into the head of any white person who got in her way.
But the big Yale development this week came from my alma mater, Yale Law School, where the New York Times reported on a bizarre student campaign against law professor Amy Chua, best known for her “Tiger Mom” book on raising children.
Both she and her husband, Jed Rubenfeld, were made pariahs on campus based on student complaints, coincidentally shortly after showing support for then-nominee for the Supreme Court Brett Kavanaugh.

in a place that is supposed to be all about the rule of law, we see anonymous mob rule. With very few exceptions, today’s Yale Law School contains either people who are deliberately behaving badly or people who are too afraid to stand up to those who are. We hear a lot about justice, but anonymous accusations and power politics aren’t justice, and places that are ruled in such a fashion tend to do badly.
The question is whether there is anyone in charge willing to show principle and decency: at Yale and elsewhere.

These graduates rub shoulders with people who go into government and corporate law etc. And apparently many are okay with it.

New Haven is in a meltdown. Used to be great to hit Toad’s Place, etc. No more.
…including their complete infiltration and IP theft at the hands of the Chinese Communist Party. Using our own system to corrupt us, as they promised they would. Enjoy.
Yale followed Columbia university in joining the Frankfurt School of Marxists who fled Hitler and set up their communist teaching here in the center of the eastern Ivy League schools to spread their doctrine to destroy American and its Republic. Thus Yale is getting its “just desert” in participating in the campaign of anti-American ‘wokeness.’
The ruling class showing their true colors.
The trouble with Yale and other so called higher learning institutions is who’s running them.... Brainless Idiots.
Kids that graduated middle school i.e. 8th grade in the 60s were far better educated, more knowledgeable and would be more productive and successful in society today than any of the “things” coming out of a 4 year college today.
Yale has become a hedge-fund, with a leftist puppy-mill attached to it.
Screw the ivory league.
I enjoyed watching them play Harvard(football). A nice ‘pure’ form of football. No blacks. You could see the feeling of “I can’t go over the middle to catch this pass. I’ve got a chemistry mid-term on cummin’ up’.
Then there’s the LB: “I can’t make this tackle. I’m gonna be a surgeon.”
‘...Yale and other so called higher learning institutions is who’s running them.... Brainless Idiots.’
Yale and other ‘higher learning institutions’ need to get over themselves.
We have evolved into a thinking-for-ourselves class of people.

Fight Fiercely, Harvard!

Meh, in 20 years I expect universities to all be remote-learning, pay as you go, like Jordan Peterson wants to do, and these dinosaurs will mostly be mothballed. Let the left mob steer that sinking ship for all I care.
Compared to abortion on demand where parents hire medical lynch mobs to murder their own children even slavery was a nothing burger. People act like it was the worst thing ever but tell that to the generations of people who never got to see one sunrise.
The sins of THESE generations, which think themselves so kind and nice, make others long gone look righteous in comparison.
Small wonder then that championing homosexuality in society is rampant among non-homosexuals.
During the decade ending June 30, 2020, Yale’s investment program added $9.5 billion of value relative to the results of the mean endowment. The University’s 20-year market-leading return of 9.9 percent per annum produced $25.7 billion in relative value. Over the past 30 years, Yale’s investments have returned an unparalleled 12.4 percent per annum, adding $34.1 billion in value relative to the Cambridge mean.
Why does Yale need an endowment this absurdly large?
