You may find it interesting to click through to the For Students section and then to the Course offerings.

You may notice that the courses fall into a few obvious types...
1. regular old language courses
(just fine and dandy, but nothing special)
2. light-weight, trendy, or ‘progressive’ spins on things that don’t matter much anyway
3. cultural appreciation type stuff, some nice fluff included

very little on the entire list is identifiably serious about Jewish or Judeo-Christian religious values, morals, ethics, laws, theology, etc.. Just for starters, how many actual Bible (Tanach) study courses do you see on the list?

I’ve heard many say how nice it is that Stanford has finally come up with a J studies program....and how (so far anyway) lightweight it really is. They said they would not send their kids to it, as the kids would come out learning almost nothing useful to living in this world...or to Jewish faith or moral teachings.

But I bet its good for attacting donations..

Here I go again with the statement no one understood ...

ONE DEAD BLACK DEMOCRAT SHUT DOWN THE GOVERNMENT AND CAUSED PROPERTY DAMAGE


I had to throw the word 'dead' in there because everyone thought I was talking about obola ... but it is the MLKjr legal holiday ... paid day off for all gummint employess .. de facto shutting the gummint down

It wasn't the Republicans

Police need to helicopter in and arrest them. These aren't ‘students’ they're paid professionals who might or might not happen to go to college.

Then the press needs to find out who's paying for them to 'protest'...

Could use hydraulic cement...but you’d need to bring a mixer, barrels, etc.

one could spray them with anything including tap water and simply tell them that said spray contained porcine essence...that should work as well as anything

If I was on the bridge with protesters, I would have run them over. :-)

Well I was using the San Mateo bridge that very day on the way home from the VA. As I approached the starting of the bridge going east we noticed 7 or 8 Highway Patrol vehicles and large Caltrans trucks. We said maybe they know something about this bridge that we don’t. Sure enough having dinner with my brother who runs several trucks across there daily, that His trucks were stuck in a protest of some kind on the bridge and was going to cost him overtime. They do not care who they effect.
