No problem .... reduce the salaries of the professors, staff, administrators, drop football, and increase tuition .... problem solved.

It will be interesting to see how University of Missouri football players do in the NFL draft. If I were a GM for an NFL team I would thing long and hard about putting any of those trouble makers in my locker room. It was the football players who threatened to not play and that forced the resignation of the university president.

The SEC is a billion dollar business and the member schools share in the revenue. There is no team in the SEC who is losing money on football. Just saying.....

What happened at Mizzou was embarrassing and shameful - mobs are destructive things.

As a life long resident and supporter of Mizzou, I couldn't agree with you more.

After this occurred I was wanting a 93% reduction in state funding to the university.

Why 93%?

Because only 7% of MU's enrollment is black. The 93% not only allowed it, they encouraged it.

I think discipline is a great educator.

If they have fewer enrollment numbers...

Only part of the story. Another article mentioned the increased rate of upperclassmen transferring out as well.

“Because only 7% of MU’s enrollment is black. “

Astonishing,isn’t it?

That small group is running a large state university.

As it approaches being content free, the price should drop to Zer0.

This is the inevitable result of letting liberals/leftists run institutions of higher learning...or just about anything else.

I wonder if all the libs running Mizzou and other schools afflicted with the disease of liberalism and various the-world-owes-me maladies realize the delicious irony. Ultra-liberals running these ultra-liberal schools are being accused of resembling hooded KKK members while bending over backwards to please people who shouldn't be there in the first place.

And why we might gloat over the misfortune of the feckless libs in those schools, it's still a tragedy. You have one of the major institutions of higher learning in the country turned into a playground for fools. Many innocent students (and the few non-liberal faculty members) suffer from their antics. Liberalism proves once again it is a destroyer of civilization.

“30 black members of the football team refused to play”

So 30 football players caused the president to step down.

Silly me,I always thought that academics were the prime function of a University.

>> props to ESPN for paying Spike Lee to glorify the fake protests with a documentary on them that he’s currently filming on campus. That should really help enrollment too. <<

My son is a Marine and will be attending Mizzou this fall after EAS. Not sure how long he’ll be able to put up with the snowflakes antics. Pretty sure he’s all out of fu...s

If I had college age kids Mizzou would be one of the last places I'd let them go.

The admin brought this on themselves. They caved to a small group of protesters and allowed the football team to lead the way. No one will say to to football in the SEC.
