If you have asked to be added to this list, and haven’t been receiving the pings, please let me know. I’ve had a problem with my file synchronization between my home and work computer, and apparently have lost some names on the list. I think I have the problem fixed, and will gladly re-add your name.
What has happened to my Alma Mater?
Funny, I didn't see any mention of this letter in my PSU Alumni magazine. Great post--I love Mike Adams.
I'm not sure I can tolerate tolerance much longer. It's too hard to know what to tolerate.
Were those policies authord by Trey Parker and Matt Stone?
BTW, Is PSU still holding the "C**T Festival" up there in Happy Valley?
I've thought this for a long time. US universities have become a fall back position for the radical left - where all the 60's idealists decided to park their useless rears and enjoy a nice cushy jobs, free from the realities of the working world.
These types of professors have killed the learning process right at the root - critical thinking. They consistently have the left bent conclusion they want to arrive at and then gather up data around them to support their conclusion. They vehemently oppose other potential ideas even if they may have been arrived at through unbiased observation and testing. They aren't teaching students how to learn, instead they are force-feeding ideas from one particular viewpoint. They are complete and utter failures at teaching and equipping our youth with critical thinking skills, which has done this country a great disservice.
What these types of professors don't seem to grasp is that Academia is not the real world, it's a vacuum where idealistic scenarios can exist on paper and chalkboards. Their students won't have the same luxury of remaining there in that vacuum and collecting a salary. They'll be heading out to the real world, complete with it's survival of the fittest, uber-competitive pressures. A place where idealistic theories break down and yield to practical and realistic solutions that work. There's the way we'd like the world to be, and there's the way it is - to confuse the two when trying to achieve results is committing to failure.
Actual quote byDr. Kathleen Dixon, the Director of Women's Studies, Bowling Green State University
So many of these univ presidents are such reprehensible a$$holes.
...it's too bad the paper wasn't saying it about muslims...
Reminds me of:
"But you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few sick, perverted individuals.
If you do, shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system?
And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general?
I put it to you, Greg. Isn't this an indictment of our entire American society?
Well, you can do what you want to us, but we won't sit here and listen to you badmouth the United States of America!"
Intolerant bump.
Intolerance vill not be tolerated!
I have been a "Lifetime Member" of the Alumni Association of Penn State since 1976 but have not given a dime to my alma mater in 15 years. I will not give another dime again until Spanier is gone.
Penn State used to be a college you could be proud of but it has been going down the toilet for decades as administrators like Spanier are all too willing to hand the place over to the activist sodomites. The place is getting to be as much of a laughingstock as Harvard.
It's a disgrace and an embarrassment.
Now, let's see. All women are 50.5 percent of humans. All blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Native Americans, Eskimos and Inuits who are not women must be another 40%. Throw in gays, lesbians, trans-gendered, disabled and the elderly and that must be another 9%. Result- At Penn state you can't speak negatively about anyone in the world but me!
Ann Coulter & David Horowithz get shouted down routinely when they speak on college campuses. Apparently they are not members of "protected classes."
I think all the "poets" should be subjected to the tolerance of the local mental institution,
"Acts of intolerance will not be tolerated at The Pennsylvania State University. "
A Statement from the Department of Redundancy Department...
We will not tolerate any tolerance for intolerance against any tolerated group of intolerant people...
sheesh!
If I weren't so offended, I'd be fed up....
