What do people expect at a black college...they are controlled by Democrats.

It's not a "black college" It has Indians, Whites, Blacks Asians and Hispanics.

I've attended student orchestra recitals many times. Good times.

I think micro aggression has over taken me! Not sure what that is, but I am sure that a safe place is my only hope.

Emory. Located in one of the top ten “Future Detroits”.

Yup, send your little chillins there...they’ll obviously be in good hands.

College students in the country these days are incredibly stupid and easily manipulated, apparently.

More proof that the education system in this country is a failure.

You’re thinking Morehouse

Emory is white and pricey

I can’t believe the president wrote that garbage

According to the perpetually aggrieved students they were “bullied” by having to read Trump’s name and each of them secretly envisioned an “or else” after it, which made them feel threatened.

They immediately drew up a petition to ban the 1st Amendment for anyone and everyone who doesn’t think like they do.

Yesterday I received a visit from 40 to 50 student protesters upset by the unexpected chalkings on campus sidewalks and some buildings yesterday morning, in this case referencing Donald Trump. The students shared with me their concern that these messages were meant to intimidate...no - the visit of 40 or 50 students (out of how many on campus) to the president's office was meant to intimidate - and apparently it did....

The students shared with me their concern that these messages were meant to intimidate rather than merely to advocate for a particular candidate, having appeared outside of the context of a Georgia election or campus campaign activity.

What? Somebody correct me if I'm wrong here, but isn't Georgia in the United States? And isn't Trump running for President of the United States? And don't college students vote in the election for President of the United States that's taking place in Georgia as well as all the other 49 - sorry, 56 - states?

Dang, I thought I knew how this worked, too. Them college perfessers are too smart fer me, that's for sure.

“WHAT DO WE DO TO THWART THIS EVIL?”
Oh, but it is so simple. First, we require background checks on anyone wanting to buy chalk. Then, we require the manufacturers of the chalk add something into the chalk to allow for tracking the perps. Of course, we can’t allow the sale or distribution of high capacity chalk boxes. Nor, can we allow the sale of large caliber chalk. I just don’t know why anyone needs large caliber chalk in this day and age. We have computers and cell phones for communications. Why do we need chalk. Ban it now. Establish a registry for all chalk users. Chalk users are evil. It’s for the children.

Just to let everyone know they are planning legislation against large capacity chalk boxes and I am anticipating there being a CHALK SHORTAGE due to the rising popularity of the Evil Donald Trump. I have already noticed the shelves bare in several stores around so I am encouraging everyone to snatch up as muck chalk as you can.

Its our most effective weapon on college campi.

Oh they have plenty of chalk for you to use, they’re so used to playing the victim they even carry around their own body chalk.

50 students out of 29,000 students? What the hell is this president thinking?

What a putz and a tyrant!

Jim Wagner is trying to bully and intimidate Emory students freedom of speech with his position.

Anyhow, LEGALLY SPEAKING since he is the President then he is a representative of the University. Hence, Jim Wagner is i violation the LAW. You can not legally shut down students Right of Free Speech because you fear someone.

That can get him some prison time too if he is not careful. Without a doubt the is 100% out of line. Jim is so stupid he put it in an email for all to see.

Trump is the leading POTUS candidate. Any suppression of that is a felony.

I say time to lawyer up and embarrass this guy. What a pathetic weak thug.

Let’s play “guess the academic major” of those who are offended.

I’d bet most have the suffix “Studies”.
