Colleges to avoid, Part I [Champlain College]

Thats the single dumbest thing i've ever heard. Liberals never cease to amaze me.

[Mr. Mojo]

So, today, I begin a series of reviews of colleges and universities where I would definitely not send my children.

Gonna be a long series.

[Brilliant]

Dear offended student:

I am writing to inform you of your suspension from Champlain College.

I think it's safe to say that with this article, the professor has doomed any chance he might have had to become a University President.

[jigsaw]

If in fact Prof. Adams continues his series and you post his future articles on FreeRepublic, I'd be very grateful if you'd ping me.   Thanks.   :)

[Alexander Rubin]

Yeah, can you put me on a Dr. Adams ping too?

[Mr. Mojo]

Vermont informed me that his school was planning to put on a formal dance until a liberal student decided that he or she (or perhaps “it”) didn't like the theme "Black and White."

Absolute insanity, of course. But instead of canceling the dance altogether why didn't the school just change the name of the theme? "Black and White" could easily be changed to "Formal Night" (or something to that effect). .....or perhaps they thought the use of the word "formal" would offend some campus hippy.

Liberals never cease to amaze me.

Liberals (progressives) no longer surprise me. They are capable of anything, rational or otherwise.

University administrators, on the other hand, should get ONE chance to get things right.
The one described in this article has not chosen wisely...

[Khepera]

I sure could use a ping to these types of articles myself.

[Mathews]

I want on the ping list too!

[metmom]

Ping me, too, please.

DO NOT, send you children to Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green if you think they like to party, drink, and sleep around. WKU is a good school, but it's a hardcore party school as well. My dad told me about an article he read back when he used to look at Playboy. The article listed the top ten party schools. It was interesting because even though it was a top ten, there were eleven schools listed. WKU was number eleven, and had a little note star next to it. At the bottom of the page, where it explains what the note stars mean, in small print it said: "We don't rate professionals."

As for schools to reccomend, my alma mater, Murray State University in Murray, KY is a good choice. The town of Murray doesn't have any bars or strip clubs, and the left-wing groups on campus are generally ignored and don't have a great deal of power. There are plenty of churches in and around town and church community has a longstanding earnest commitment to reach the campus, which has met with great success. It's a good environment to be in.

Boortz' website usually links to Professor Adams' columns.

Urban legend.Has been attributed to University of Miami and University of Ga. in past.

[John O]

ping me too? Thanks

Also attributed to Marquette University in Milwaukee Wisconsin (Home of the "flapping turkeys" and multiple voting demorat students). Of course MU has a good claim to it as there are more bars within a 6 block radius than any other place I've ever seen.

I understand UW Madison is a perennial top ten lister also. I guess the faculty likes to keep the kids plastered while they indoctrinate them

[cyclotic]

Dr. Adams is about the only good thing about tenure.

[SuziQ]

LOL! Can't wait to see which 'red state' college he skewers!

[JamesP81]

Maybe so. However, I do know a lot of people who have been to WKU, and it is a pretty hardcore party school. Which is a shame, because it generally is a good school academically.

Now that I think about it, though, I think SIU is actually a bit worse. Especially on and around Halloween.
