No federal funding should be going to this trash heap of a school. No state funding, either.

“Guys and gals” must still be okay then as that wasn’t mentioned. Or “he and she.”

Could just refer to others as “comrade” .... it’s gender neutral and exudes equality yet retains the ability to allow “Comrade leaders” to direct the “Comrade peasants” without offending them.

Colleges and Universities have become nothing more
than “GLORIFIED DAY CARE”.

Pity that someone is paying money for it and will get no return on their investment.

It amazes me that there are no "non-traditional" students that push back on these profs.

I worked for a university when I was in my 30s, and attended class when my duties would allow. I attended a CHEM 101 class wherein the prof stated that we all must memorize the periodic table of elements.

When I stated my flat refusal to do this, citing the fact that I could look up the data any time I needed it, the little 19-year-old snowflakes all had a collective heart attack! Who was I to argue with the professor!

I told the prof that I had no intention of doing such an unnecessary thing, and if he had any test questions that demanded unnecessary memory efforts, to go ahead and grade me accordingly, but that I thought it was ridiculous to be forced to commit to memory that which was easily and accurately available on demand from many sources.

He pointed out that I was in charge of the central computers and the university network, and asked me if I had not memorized many of the commands I used in my daily work. I admitted that I had, though not out of the effort of memorization, but from sheer repeated usage. I also pointed out that I had eight shelf feet of manuals, plus electronic references, that I could consult at any time to ensure that I had the right answer,and that I did not have to resort to my memory for some esoteric syntax ('find' users will appreciate that).

The kids in my class all looked at me like I had a third arm...

From now on I shall expect my schizophrenic alter ego to be addressed as “his highness”.

I’d like to be IN TOUCH with them.

They’s have bigger things to worry about than this nonsense.

Trump and we will bring the country back to sanity where i dont get asked on a doctor’s application if i’m
gay
heterosexual
transgender
other

OR If I’m a

man
woman
other

WTF!!!???

“...Buckeyes kick their pansy a@@e$ every year...”

According to Wikipedia, Michigan leads the series, 58-47-6.
