Maybe some student who didn’t study.

[posterchild]

Will their freshman class next year be thick or thin?

[2ndDivisionVet]

I carried the Air Force Security Police Model 15 for years when I guarded an Air Guard base as a state civilian. What a relic.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Not true, I know several people who have them, bought more recently than that.

“But being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your dumb SJW head clean off...”

[Lera]

Smells of fake

[M1911A1]

Relic or not, still an excellent choice for the non enthusiasts wanting a defensive handgun.

[Trillian]

Is this from their own students or staff faking something?

When you have a 99% acceptance rate, you are no different than a community college. However at a CC you stand a change of learning some skills that are marketable in the real world.

This his how they describe themselves on their website:

Innovative Academics

Escape the sequences of disconnected classes and endless prerequisites. Experience a better way of learning with programs that explore the many sides of a theme or topic. Narrative evaluations from faculty replace competitive grades with meaningful feedback.

6th rate hippie college with no redeeming features

close it down

[Fast Moving Angel]

Maybe some student who didn’t study.

You beat me to it. I was thinking, are they about to have finals? ;-)

[GuavaCheesePuff]

This is what happens when you see SJWs take over society. They are a plague on society, they are human waste.

SJWs are crazy. They are extreme leftists.

[Enchante]

Typical "progressive" blather. Obvious lack of academic rigor, substituting kind words in "narratives" for standards and achievements.

So they deplore

"sequences of disconnected classes and endless prerequisites"

Prerequisites are hardly "endless" but are necessary standards if you are to have more advanced classes AT ALL. No prerequisites means everything stays at a mushy introductory level, because no class can assume a fundamental background among students who have already had one or more courses in the subject. Good heavens, I could not bear to be in only classes for which there were no prerequisites!! That suggests an appalling and rudimentary level of education even in the junior and senior years.

[DoughtyOne]

They know who the problem students are.

Let them remain until the end of this semester. Then write them a letter and tell them not to return.

Then start a campaign to replace them with new students and move on.

In the new bylaws, simply tell the students, “This is a university. If you are here to study, get good grades, and prepare for the future, we want you. If you are here with a social agenda that will take up most of your time, consider this your only warning.”

[mulligan]

Should be closed forever.

[Jane Long]

Play crazy leftist rules games, get crazy Commie thug payback prizes.

[PAR35]

Just shut the place down until fall, and give everyone an “F” for their Spring semester courses.

[60Gunner]

Patchoulie-soaked fakery.

[jonascord]

There was a sales spike when the movie came out. People will buy anything that shoots, and has a movie cachet, just for fun.

You'll admit tho, it isn't a good CCW hideout, or even an open carry...

Some guns just transend logic.

[matt04]

I spent a little time on their website. They don’t appear to teach but attempt to make the students “feel good” about themselves. Oh and over 70% take on student loans to “feel good.” I’m sure their careers as PT Starbucks barista will bay those off.
