    According to Snopes.com, Princeton was requested to put a 'restriction' on distribution of any copies of the thesis of Michelle Obama (a/k/a/ Michelle laVaughn Robinson) saying it could not be made available until November 5, 2008 but when it was published on a political website they decided they would lift the restriction. http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/thesis.asp Subj: Thesis - Michele Obama aka Michelle LaVaughn Robinson OBAMA'S MILITANT RACISM REVEALED In her senior thesis at Princeton , Michele Obama, the wife of Barack Obama stated that America was a nation founded on 'crime and hatred'.

    I encourage you to watch the Glenn Beck Program this next Friday, August 22, at either 7 pm, 9 pm or midnight, Eastern Standard Time. The program will consist of an interview with four students and Prof. George to discuss the work that has been going on at Princeton over the last 10 years or so to create a climate that is more supportive for students interested in a college education that includes the development of moral convictions and practices. As you know Universities have years ago decided they are no longer going to instruct students on what is right...

    PROFESSOR PETER SINGER: LOVER OF GREAT APES Anyone remember Professor Peter Singer? He’s the esteemed professor of bioethics at Princeton who advocated legalizing the execution of infants up to 28 days old in his book, Practical Ethics. I guess we have to assume that killing a 29 0r 30 day old human being–or a 29 or 30 year old?– might be an ethical no-no, but that’s not a given with Singer, either. Talk about a poorly titled book! And that’s hardly the only outrageous belief held by this nutty professor. He seems to launch his insanity from a simple perspective:...

    Probably gonna take some arrows for this one. But the following is a perfect example of an Affirmative Action trainwreck. And if people cannot debate the pervasive damage the program does to its "beneficiaries" then those "beneficiaries" will continue to exist in their uncomfortable purgatory. I ran across this opinion piece in the Washington Post entitled, "Michelle, Meritocracy and Me." Since Michelle Obama hasn't been a proud American until this year, and is therefore unfit to be anywhere near the levers of power, I have an interest in learning anything I can about her to see what we might be...

    For decades, critics of affirmative action have contended elite colleges, in their zeal to form racially diverse student bodies, have discriminated against top white applicants. In a twist on that long-running feud, federal authorities are investigating an allegation that Princeton University discriminates against Asian-American applicants by accepting black and Hispanic students with lower entrance scores. At the heart of both arguments lies the question of whether and how colleges should consider race when choosing a class. The Supreme Court has ruled race can be a factor in the process, though racial quotas have long been declared unconstitutional. Critics say admission...

    DURING HER FOUR years as a Princeton undergrad, Michelle Robinson lived in a world of white privilege she'd never experienced before. She did her work, graduated with the Class of '85, and moved on to law school and a career. In the past few weeks, Michelle Robinson Obama has seen her every word and gesture examined under a microscope. A wrong move has the potential to topple her husband's carefully constructed image as a healer. A rumored recording of her using a derogatory term for whites in a speech never materialized. There's no evidence that she ever said the word,...

      Much has been made of Michelle Obama’s Princeton thesis paper. Since her brother Craig Robinson has now given his thoughts on the campaign, one might be curious of what his own Princeton senior thesis reveals. The title of Craig Malcolm Robinson’s senior thesis is “The Nature of Informal Social Structures Within a Prison”. It was completed at Princeton in 1983.Here are some excerpts: Trenton State Prison houses inmates mostly from the Trenton and Newark areas. This partially accounts for the racial make-up of the population. Racism, as I will show later, is accounted for as a result of the...

    Mrs. Obama clearly identifies herself with a “separatist” view of race. “By actually working with the Black lower class or within their communities as a result of their ideologies, a separatist may better understand the desperation of their situation and feel more hopeless about a resolution as opposed to an integrationist who is ignorant to their plight.” Obama writes that the path she chose by attending Princeton would likely lead to her “further integration and/or assimilation into a white cultural and social structure that will only allow me to remain on the periphery of society; never becoming a full participant.”...

    Princeton University, with a $15.8 billion endowment, larger than the gross domestic product of Bolivia, is among an elite list of super-wealthy schools under pressure to justify how they spend their enormous wealth. Last year, a record 76 colleges and universities had endowments greater than $1 billion, making them targets for criticism in an era of soaring tuition and ballooning student loan debt. Congress wants the schools to spend more money on lowering tuitions for poor and middle-class students and is looking into the tax-exempt status of some donations.

To paraphrase one of the great lines from South Park, there's a time and a place for radical thought, and it's called college. Mrs. Obama...

    This paper presents a fully independent security study of a Diebold AccuVote-TS voting machine, including its hardware and software. We obtained the machine from a private party. Analysis of the machine, in light of real election procedures, shows that it is vulnerable to extremely serious attacks. For example, an attacker who gets physical access to a machine or its removable memory card for as little as one minute could install malicious code; malicious code on a machine could steal votes undetectably, modifying all records, logs, and counters to be consistent with the fraudulent vote count it creates.

    A widely-publicized attack on supporters of Israel by two leading academics commits a fair number of inaccuracies not the least of which is their characterization of controversies surrounding the Israel Lobby as they manifest themselves on American campuses. “In September 2002, for example, Martin Kramer and Daniel Pipes, two passionately pro-Israel neoconservatives, established a website (Campus Watch) that posted dossiers on suspect academics and encouraged students to report comments or behavior that might be considered hostile to Israel,” John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt wrote in a recent report which also appeared in abbreviated form in the London Review of Books....

    June 6, 2006 — When Dan-el Padilla Peralta stood before his fellow Princeton graduates today and delivered the salutatory address, in Latin no less, it was a remarkable feat in itself. But the story of how he made it to the Ivy League school rivals the Roman classics he fell in love with as a young boy. Padilla came to the United States from the Dominican Republic as a 4-year-old on a short-term visa, as his mother sought urgent medical care. They remained, and his childhood was spent skipping from one shelter to another in New York. "It was a...

    17 Pct. at 2 Schools Practice Self-Abuse Survey: 17 Percent at 2 Ivy League Schools Practice Cutting, Other Self-Abuse By LINDSEY TANNER The Associated Press CHICAGO Jun 5, 2006 (AP) CHICAGO - Nearly 1 in 5 students at two Ivy League schools say they have purposely injured themselves by cutting, burning or other methods, a disturbing phenomenon that psychologists say they are hearing about more often. For some young people, self-abuse is an extreme coping mechanism that seems to help relieve stress; for others it's a way to make deep emotional wounds more visible. The results of the survey...

    Princeton, NJ -- Abortion vandalism is continuing at another college as abortion advocates destroyed a pro-life display pro-life students at Princeton University set up. The incident comes just one week after a professor led pro-abortion students in trashing a pro-life display at Northern Kentucky University. Members of Princeton Pro-Life set up a pro-life flag display in front of Frist Campus Center to remember the 347 students that the group estimates are not attending Princeton this year because of abortion. Pro-Life president Tom Haine said the vandalism occurred early Thursday morning. The pink and blue flags the group used to represent...

    Among many cultures, the moment of creation is described as light coming out of the darkness. Yesterday scientists reported they had seen the first light of the cosmos, emitted a trillion-trillionth of a second after the beginning of space and time.  To spy the oldest light in the universe, the team used the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe, a minivan-size NASA satellite located nearly a million miles out in space, to study patterns in energy waves. The scientists built on earlier data, using a new measurement technique that separated out ancient glare from the afterglow of creation to gain clues about...
  • University funds diverted: Princeton president admits money wasn't used as donors wished

    The president of Princeton University has admitted in court documents that $750,000 earmarked by a foundation for the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs was diverted to other uses and that she kept the diversion secret from the family who had donated the funds. Shirley M. Tilghman made the admission in a deposition under questioning by lawyers for the Robertson family -- While the $750,000 is a small part of the Robertson family's gift, the issue of whether the funds were used as specified is central to the case. In 2002, William Robertson and his family, who are...

    In a speech before a Princeton audience of about 800 on January 18th , Hillary Rodham Clinton, Senator from New York, had a few words of scorn for the Bush administration's handling of the Iran nuke situation. So, on one hand, we "lost critical time in dealing with Iran" because Bush tried to allow the diplomatic process undertaken by the Europeans and Iran to attempt to work itself out (wasn't it the left who claimed Bush went to war without using diplomacy in 2001?). She says we cannot "outsource" our negotiations to others (nice usage of a meaningless buzz word...

    In his opening statement to the Judiciary Committee, Judge Samuel Alito told the senators where he comes from. First, Hamilton Township, N.J., the modest-income suburb of Trenton, where he grew up. -- snip -- Our universities today have become our most intellectually corrupt institutions. University administrators must lie and deny that they use racial quotas and preferences in admissions, when they devote much of their energy to doing just that. They must pledge allegiance to diversity, when their campuses are among the least politically diverse parts of our society, with speech codes that penalize dissent and sometimes violent suppression of...

    ABOUT THE ALITO HEARINGS, one thing is certain: If it had been the Concerned Alumni of Princeton that was up for confirmation, the nomination wouldn't even make it out of the Judiciary Committee. Democrats led by Sen. Edward Kennedy portrayed CAP as hostile to minorities and to coeducation and thus to women. And Republicans weren't about to get into a fight over CAP, which was formed in 1972, shortly after Princeton went coeducational and the same year Samuel Alito graduated. CAP went out of business in 1986.CAP drew the interest of committee Democrats because Alito once identified himself as a...
