College Campus Lunacy

As the fall semester begins, parents, students, taxpayers and donors should be made aware of official college practices that should disgust us all.

Hampshire College will offer some of its students what the school euphemistically calls "identity-based housing." That's segregated housing for students who — because of their race, culture, gender or sexual orientation — have "historically experienced oppression." I'd bet the rent money that Hampshire College will not offer Jewish, Irish, Polish, Chinese or Catholic students segregated housing. Because there is no group of people who have not faced oppression, Hampshire College is guilty of religious and ethnic discrimination in its housing segregation policy.

University of Connecticut administrators think that more black men will graduate if they spend more time together. According to Campus Reform, they are building a new residence hall to facilitate just that. Dr. Erik Hines, the faculty director for the program, said that the learning community "is a space for African-American men to ... come together and validate their experiences that they may have on campus. ... It's also a space where they can have conversation and also talk with individuals who come from the same background who share the same experience." By the way, Hampshire College and the University of Connecticut are not alone in promoting racially segregated student housing.

SMH! Geez, if they spent as much time on actual studies for courses offered, maybe there would be a tad less turmoil on campuses. To those students who are there to be educated, keep pluggin' away and you'll be done and gone before you know it. If you choose to get in the middle of the sjw crowd, sorry fer ya.

If these so-called institutions of higher learning were honest, they’d put a large painting of George Wallace in the Administration Building.

Can’t say it bothers me, why would I want to room with someone who thinks I am a devil.

Hampshire College has always been a tad far out.
