University drops 'whites are racist' plan
WorldNetDaily.com ^ | November 1, 2007 | Bob Unruh

Posted on 11/02/2007 4:15:30 AM PDT by Man50D

University of Delaware officials, who just a day earlier had defended a residence hall series of teachings on which WND reported that told students "all whites are racists," today announced the program is being stopped.

"While I believe that recent press accounts misrepresent the purpose of the residential life program at the University of Delaware, there are questions about its practices that must be addressed and there are reasons for concern that the actual purpose is not being fulfilled. It is not feasible to evaluate these issues without a full and broad-based review," said a statement posted on the school's website by President Patrick Harker.

"Upon the recommendation of Vice President for Student Life Michael Gilbert and Director of Residence Life Kathleen Kerr, I have directed that the program be stopped immediately. No further activities under the current framework will be conducted," he said.

His statement said the school "strives for an environment in which all people feel welcome to learn, and which supports intellectual curiosity, critical thinking, free inquiry and respect for the views and values of an increasingly diverse population. The University is committed to the education of students as citizens, scholars and professionals and their preparation to contribute creatively and with integrity to a global society. The purpose of the residence life educational program is to support these commitments."

Harker said Gilbert will work with the University Faculty Senate and others "to determine the proper means by which residence life programs may support the intellectual, cultural and ethical development of our students."

One student on Fox News described the class. They sat on the floor in the middle of the room. A bowl of marshmallows was in the middle of the group. A student would take a marshmallow for each minority/female criteria met as dictated by the instructor. Eventually only white male students did not have any marshamallows and were made to feel guilty.

I’m thankful the college I go to has that sort of nonsense kept to a relative minimum. There are so many people involved with ROTC here that if they tried that garbage, there would be an uproar and the military would threaten to withdraw, taking its large amount of money with it.

That marshmallow thing is pretty hilarious. Seems like a good metaphor for the kind of brains you end up with after a stint in a college like that.
Not much brains, either, in a guy who’d attend a college where he’s automatically branded a racist when he’s caucasian.

Sure, they'll just try to keep it quiet this time. These academics are so isolated from reality that they're surprised when anyone notices and protests their insanity.

They must want masochistic white guys at U. of Delaware. “Yes, Mom, I want to go to the University of Delaware and there’s nothing you can do about it . . . No, stop crying . . . You didn’t do anything wrong to raise a panty wearing masochist . . . It’s just who I am.”

Eventually only white male students did not have any marshamallows and were made to feel guilty.

Who started up a business and charged 1/2 marshmellow for his product. And soon had many more marshmellows than anyone else in the class.

Then a female student with very large cankles and a wicked laugh said, "If When the rest of the class elects me President, I am going to take your marshmellows for the common good."

The student who started his business then raised the price of his product to the other students to two marshmellows and offered credit to the others at prime plus 20% for using his company's credit card.

Then the rest of the class refinanced their homes to wipe out their credit card debt and buy more of product from the business student.

For some of them it will indoctrinate them or intimidate them. For others it will make them fearless cultural warriors. Idiot leftists . . .

I hope every parent of a student pays close attention. Where on God’s green Earth do these people come from? That ‘program’ had to have a fair amount of planning and an approval chain in order to be on the books at all. And faculty willing to actually ‘teach’ it?. Creepy is the only word that comes to mind.

Funny!

We would respond, "Good! That means I am designated as the only unique individual that doesn't have to conform to the rest of you turds and I now have the freedom to be whatever I endeavor. You all now need a fire under that marshmellow to toast it. I was already given the fire by you. Thanks!"

As Brigitte Gabriel points out in “Because they Hate,” Universities get hefty endowments from the SAUDIS to fund these multi-culti (read: anti-white, anti-Western) BS, especially the “middle eastern studies” programs.

The funny thing is, as she points out, most of these programs were started by the US Dept of Defense, to encourage people to study the Middle East so as to eventually provide service to the DoD intelligence agencies (all through Title VI) because there was an alarming dearth of people in our intelligence communities who spoke Middle Eastern languages and understood the culture. The Islamofascists crept in with their money and subverted these courses.

The ideal scenario would be for a white male student to find out about the event beforehand and come prepared. When it comes down to only the white males not getting any sugar from the communal pot, the prepared student pulls out a whole bag of jumbo marshmallows and shares them generously with his oppressor oligarch buddies.

"Eat yours nice and slow," they'd tell the oppressed minorities. "You gotta make 'em last." Then they'd pop another marshmallow and say to the instructor "Hence the difference between a socialist economy and private industry." And they'd pop another marshmallow.

I’ve always thought that America (and FOR SURE the Western World) was run by nothing more than Dead White Marshmallows. Marshmallows just waiting for a campfire.
I’m not tryin’ to sound dramatic, but I’ve always felt that way. Really. I really have. The marshmallow thing is a genius metaphor. Ha haaaahaaaahaaaa /Sarc

“A RACIST: A racist is one who is both privileged and socialized on the basis of race by a white supremacist (racist) system. The term applies to all white people (i.e., people of European descent) living in the United States, regardless of class, gender, religion, culture or sexuality. By this definition, people of color cannot be racists, because as peoples within the system, they do not have the power to back up their prejudices, hostilities, or acts of discrimination.”

So by this definition, Louis Farrakhan cannot be a racist because he isn`t white.

There is a simple solution to this, which is true to real life. While the others are playing the game by the rules, the white males ought to grab the marshmellows and gulp them down, then claim that the racist society is to blame—they were only taking what was theirs.

indoctrinate this, ya UoD bums.

“I believe that to have a friend,
a man must be one.

That all men are created equal
and that everyone has within himself
the power to make this a better world.

That God put the firewood there
but that every man
must gather and light it himself.

In being prepared
physically, mentally, and morally
to fight when necessary
for that which is right.

That a man should make the most
of what equipment he has.

That ‘This government,
of the people, by the people
and for the people’
shall live always.

That men should live by
the rule of what is best
for the greatest number.

That sooner or later...
somewhere...somehow...
we must settle with the world
and make payment for what we have taken.

That all things change but truth,
and that truth alone, lives on forever.

In my Creator, my country, my fellow man.”

The Lone Ranger

This is nothing new. When I went to the University of Maryland, the feminist studies department took all the male names out of the phone book and made a display declaring that we were all “potential rapists.” University never did a damn thing about it.
