Students wear white pins to remind them of white privilege
College Fix ^ | February 14, 2017 | Dominic Mancini

Students at Elizabethtown College this month are wearing white pins in the shape of puzzle pieces to remind them of their white privilege.

The campaign was launched over the weekend by the Elizabethtown College Democrats, who say it aims to make students at the small and private liberal arts college in Pennsylvania more introspective about issues of race, especially in their predominantly white region of Lancaster County.

Why would any student attend this $56 K a year school I never heard of before? For the privilege of wearing modern day version of the Star of David the Nazis forced Jews to wear?

Good question, but another is when is this crap going to fade away? At some point snowflakes melt . . . at least they do in the real world.

I’d rather opt for wearing a pin proclaiming “Don’t Tread on Me!”

My niece and nephew—students at University of California Santa Cruz—have no time for ridiculous things like this. Mostly because my niece is pre-med and my nephew is computer science major.

Somehow the existence of Elizabethtown College (or of Elizabethtown, for that matter) has escaped my notice.

Snowflakes?

This is why we need to introduce market forces into higher eduction.

1. Video classes. Cut out the need for about 70% of the liberal professors.

2. No federal guarantee for student loans. If you’re spending 250k for a worthless degree, why should taxpayers bear the risk? That’s what props up the entire liberal useless degree industry — federal loans federal guarantees.

Someone should make a white star of David and wear that. About as bad.

I sent four kids to Hopkins, Bucknell (2), and Lafayette. The latter two are small Pennsylvania schools. They all came back saying their schools professors are ridiculous leftists. Fortunately, many of the students are learning that leftists are crazy and how to avoid them. Unfortunately, they just shut up. Its not smart to write a right leaning paper in school if you want a good grade.

Consider the very real possibility of a truly catastrophic disaster at Oroville, then think of the utter banality and foolishness of these clueless children with their white pins.

Some days it doesn't seem so bad to be getting old . . .

LOL! Dumbasses. I just wait for my payout from the new nazi regime that’s apparently running the white house now. THAT reminds me of my white privilege. Uh, anyone else still waiting for their check? Hello? Buelher? Buelher?

Race relations are as good as they’ve ever been in this country, and practically speaking can’t get better (so long as there’s the natural correlation between genes & culture, propagating together).

So long as some people derive power & money from racial strife, they will perpetuate it in the name of ending it. Munchausen By Proxy can be quite profitable.
