UC Davis student leaders say American flag display should be optional at meetings

The UC Davis student senate has made it optional to display the American flag at its meetings, stirring up controversy on campus and conservative blogs.

Senate Bill 76 passed Thursday, said Michael Gofman, a student senator who opposed the change.

The bill amends bylaws that required the United States flag to be on display at every senate meeting of the Associated Students, University of California, Davis.

UC Davis and the liberals controlling the university and City of Davis may be even more anti America/Americans than UC Bexerkley.

“Gofman disagreed, saying all governing bodies within the U.S. – including a student senate – should display the United States flag.”

Calm down big fella. The student senate is not a governing body.

Student leaders...

I think I’ve figured out where this went wrong.

End that noise immediately.

When all universities do, where are these idiots going to go for an education?

They’ll go to a university, behave, and do just what the faculty tells them to.

Some input is reasoned. This ‘student leaders’ to the max is ridiculous.

And, the toxic damage that they do this once-great UC Davis Campus is as immense as it is irredeemable.

I think the Federal funds from all sources should be optional to any University that does not go out of their way to display the flag.

UC Davis has been going down the social toilet for some time:

Friday
A few days ago, at the campus of the University of California at Davis, a campus northeast of San Francisco with about 35,000 students, the student association of the campus voted to advise the UC system to “divest itself” of stocks in companies that, in their words, “aid in the Israeli occupation of Palestine and (quoting here) illegal settlements in Palestinian territories.…”

This was bad enough, because Israel is the only law-abiding democracy in the Middle East, and so far as can be determined, Arabs, who make up about a fifth of its population, make no effort to leave to go to “Arab lands.”

But it’s come to be standard at college campuses, many of which are now hotbeds of anti-Israel, anti-Semitic venom. But what came after is really a stunner. Some scummy little rats spray-painted swastikas on the exterior walls of the Jewish fraternity, Alpha Epsilon Pi.

No mention of the Kalifornia Flag. I’m sure they are happy with the Marxist State they live in. They have each other’s backs.

UC Davis is rotting from the head on down:

UC Davis chancellor resigns following probe into ethical violations

Napolitano ordered an investigation in April in response to allegations that Katehi had violated conflict-of-interest rules in the hiring and promotion of her son and daughter-in-law at UC Davis.

http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-uc-davis-chancellor-katehi-resigns-20160809-snap-story.html

What a freaking Charlie Foxtrot UC Davis has become where I agree with Janet Napolitano on how dysfunctional the campus has devolved into.

Does anyone else see the hypocrisy of students at a gov’t-subsidized school bitching about a symbol of the gov’t?

Obviously the UC Davis students are oblivious as to where the funding comes from for their financial aid. But they are welcome to surrender that financial aid to someone who actually wants to go to college to learn something.

The UC system is so detached from the real world that they have no concept of reality. The UC Davis chancellor was dismissed for ethics violations, fraud and theft, and how do they punish her?

Under the settlement, Katehi will remain on administrative leave for a year as chancellor emeritus, receiving her $424,360 annual pay

“The Mustangs have lost their way.”

I missed the part about Cal Poly. The UCD
mascot is the Aggies. And, be that as it may
I would surmise that the campus organizations
affiliated with the UC Davis School of Agriculture
will conduct business pretty much the same as always.
We`re talking some good, solid ag type people, here.
