Chaos swept over college campuses around the nation Thursday, as the ousters of the embattled University of Missouri system's president and chancellor earlier this week were followed by dozens of other student protests calling for more faculty and staff heads to roll.
A popular professor at Missouri said he resigned Wednesday after students lashed out at him for pledging to give a scheduled exam amid spiraling protests, but the university said Thursday it rejected his resignation.
The Dean of Students at Claremont McKenna College in California, Mary Spellman, resigned in a letter to the community Thursday, after some at the school called for hunger strikes over what they perceived as a lack of support for students of color.
Students at Ithaca College in New York, Yale University and Vanderbilt University in Tennessee were also calling to ax administrators, and even more campuses were pledging solidarity with the burgeoning social justice movement.
As many as 20 other campuses around the country were planning marches Thursday, including St. John's, Syracuse and Columbia universities in New York, Harvard and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Disaffected students at Loyola University in Chicago and the University of Michigan were preparing a list of demands and threatening action, according to The Seattle Times. Black alumni at Georgia Tech were crafting a letter to that university's president, urging a continued commitment to diversity.

This is nothing but a big deflection from what is happening to the economy, the US in general and the shift of power from the West to the East.
The dear little children who can’t stand to hear something they don’t like are going to be hit with chaos in a short time when the dollar loses its status as the petrodollar and singular reserve currency.
I’m just trying to create a safe place free from marxist indoctrination.
Absolutely!
And there are plenty of cameras to capture the insanity for all to see. They truth hurts their cause and they know it.
LOL
What is the goal here for Soros/obama regime? I think I know, but would like some input please.
Does she print her name on her decrees?
Her first act was to outlaw cursive on all college campuses. She said it was “old school.”
They can't blame conservatives because there aren't any college administrators or professors, for that matter, who ARE conservative.
Maybe the new mascot will be a Tiny Violin?
Feels like The People’s Republic of China circa 1966.
History lesson for the liberal administrators: Karma is a real bitch...................
Lemme ax you a question.
Racial "justice"
Free tuition
A $15 minimum wage
The only common denominator in all of these is that they are the dim party platform.
This is not a spontaneous uprising. It is calculated to bring out the disinteresed minority and youth vote blocks that the dims were lamenting they are missing so far this election.
Since MTV is dying they don't have the "rock the vote" anymore. They are inciting "rock the campus" instead.
This is the OWS of 2016.
It is just wrong that colleges are caving to revolutionaries and thugs. Shouldn't students be learning to respect the rule of law? What I can envision is that these places where protestors set the tone will become cesspools. Parents who strive to raise decent law-abiding children who don't cower to intimidation won't let their children go there. Alternative? If they can't afford a safe education, there are some good online options.
This is actually the end of opportunity for those who strive to work their way up.
Didn't Mary Shelley write a book about this back in the 1800s?
They didn't accept his resignation - a small ray of hope... could the grown-ups possibly be growing a smidgen of a backbone?
