Seattle U Students Occupy Office, Demand School To 'Decentralize Whiteness'
Daily Caller ^ | May 12, 2016 | Blake Neff

A group of students at Seattle University have taken over a university dean's office, saying they won't leave unless the dean resigns and the school grants a set of demands that would heavily politicize the humanities curriculum.

Matteo Ricci College is one of eight schools at Seattle University, and focuses on the study of humanities. But the students who have taken over dean Jodi Kelly's office say the college's current curriculum is utterly stifling, and they have published a lengthy list of demands for changes.

Chief among their demands is an order for the school to adopt a new curriculum that "decentralizes Whiteness and has a critical focus on the evolution of systems of oppression such as racism, capitalism, colonialism, etc." The curriculum should be taught by "professors of color and queer professors" and should place particular emphasis not on traditional educational concepts but instead on "racism, gentrification, sexism, colonialism, imperialism, global white supremacy, and other ethical questions about systems of power."

I can make out 19 femtards and 2 manginas in the herd.

This Jesuit cesspit is a combined high school/ college operation for the pittance of $18,000 a year retail.

The sucker parents must be so proud.

‘Decentralize Whiteness’
Take all whites’ money, and their property, and then turn them into third class citizens.

“I talked with my buddy on FB about something on this same subject and he said we are approaching intellectual genocide, he was right.”

We studied the Chinese “Cultural Revolution” in school. I never dreamed that I would actually see it in the U.S. in my lifetime.

It won’t be long before these precious snowflakes will be marching across the country, slaughtering anyone who won’t fall obediently into line with their fascist ideology.,

“Isn’t this how the Chinese “Red Guard” came into being?
Causing trouble in the Universities and ultimately spreading the infection out into the wider population.”

I didn’t see your post before I posted mine. I observed that we are heading down the exact same path & are facing a “Cultural Revolution” of our own.

This crap must be stopped, NOW. BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.

Yep, an unstable linear system will go non-linear and limit.

I’m thinking more red-guards here than complex plane stability. What happened in China? The Red Guards eventually burned themselves out and were viewed by later generations as a big mistake.

Mao went to his reward.

Deng Xiao Ping came in. "Let a hundred flowers bloom." They oscillate back and forth between capitalism and communism. It's the old "balance between greed and fear," with noodles and open toilets.

More generally, I’ve been musing, the pendulum moves slowest and spends more time at extremes than in the middle, where it is moving the fastest and just passing through.

Not a model, more of an image—but it seems to apply to a lot of social, political, and religious attitudes.

Seattle University has a sometimes competitive basketball team which used to be called the Chieftans. Of course that is racist and privileged, plus micro agressive - several years ago they changed it to Redhawks. It’s PC central down there and the administration will likely bow down to these juvenile turds. Ridiculous.

Well, if you watch a swinging pendulum, get in sync with it, and give it a shove just when it is moving at it's fastest rate, it will swing way, way outside its normal range of movement, and may well crash into something that it never gets near under normal conditions.

That's what Obama is doing, IMHO. He's using the power of his office to give an extra shove to everything that is in the process of going off the rails.

“Systems of power” is exactly what protects these losers from the utter destruction that would befall them in a dog-eat-dog world.

I’m not sad that there are idiots.

There will always be idiots trying to take over.

I’m sad that no one is fighting the idiots.
In fact, no one even seems interested in fighting the idiots.

The funny thing is that oddly enough one professor that was a bit liberal told us to learn a survival skill and learn to rely on yourself then others more.

From the episode ‘Miri’:

Almost as good as “The Omega Glory” - a great pro-American episode.

Yangs: “E pleb neista...”

Kirk: “(No), We The People...”

Those were the days...

Fully agreed. Once it takes hold it becomes an unstoppable force, particularly if the ruling 'Elite' are behind it.
Let us hope for a favorable election result with promises upheld.

I am totally convinced that this whole cycle got started by a dorm bull session that, having gone too long, posed the question of how to get out of classes the next day. Ever since then it has been one group trying to out-do the predecessor.

Of course, the fact that the various administers of these institutions of alleged learning are in agreement with these idiots and have a total lack of backbone, just encourages these incidents!
