The same can be said about our government. It is filled with employees who can barely speak proper English. It has become ghetto-ized. The military is not far off.
“The same can be said about our government.”
Same can be said for the entire country. We’re now running on fumes. One little puff from China, and it’s game over.
Sad to see...but I guess too many people were turned off by Trump’s tweets to give a damn as to what would become of the country without him.
the “well-educated” really don’t buy into the BS the progressives sell.
so the progressives have decided we’re not going to have any of the “well-educated”
fortunately college experience becomes less relevant every year
I started electrical engineering school in January of 1966, at UW-Madision, then one of the top engineering schools in the nation.
Four and one-half years and three riot deployments later, I graduated with a BSEE with a penetration in History. I was fortunate to receive a pretty well-balanced education.
Today, I am ashamed to call myself an alumnus of that hotbed of political correctness and cancel culture filth.
At this point many colleges are simply grades 12 to 16 of high school, complete with watered-down grades and social promotion.
The US legal system was once held in high esteem because of its fidelity to the law and US constitution. This provided the framework for an ethical and just society.
Now its the vanguard of corruption and tyranny. All we have now is gangsters with law degrees.
Maybe, but that is not why Trump "lost." The massive fraud this past November was decided by ballot-box stuffing and pre-determined machine algorithms. In actuality, he won in a massive landslide.
I had an engineering prof in the early 1980s who had come from there. At the time, Wisconsin was running a tourism promotion campaign with the slogan “Escape to Wisconsin!” He had one of the bumper stickers hacked/edited to read “Escape Wisconsin!” He was very glad to get to GA.
Of course, things are getting weird here, now.
Its basically checking boxes now, if you want a decent grade you don’t have time to be curious.
Toga, Toga!
The top layer of the American legal profession used to be fairly conservative or at least centrist and was prestigious. Now it is full of lefties who can’t run fast enough to do pro bono work for every piece of trash plaguing the American public - terrorists in Gitmo, stupid United Nations initiatives (such as climate change garbage), illegal invaders, perpetuators of voter fraud, LGBT types suing Christians, Planned Parenthood, you name it.
There are a lot of factors involved in the decline of American ‘higher’ education. From my perspective, these are relevant:
1. Universities became addicted to federal grant money. Thus getting grants became the major criterion for success as a faculty member. Teaching has become a burden that prevents faculty from spending more time writing grants.
2. Universities, and particularly university law schools more and more became the portal into political careers. Universities have become very connected to the political ‘elite’. This has contributed significantly to the politicization of the universities, and has also markedly altered the power structures and hierarchies within universities.
3. University faculty started becoming media celebrities. This attracts the worst in potential faculty members, and selects for those who seek to see their name in lights rather than contributing to societal knowledge and truth. For example, the pathetically inept Yale psychiatry faculty member who repeatedly made remarks to the media about Trump’s mental health.
There are many other factors, of course, but these have contributed.
Many universities have clowns and outright failures giving the speech.
...a long time ago.
By teaching lies...
“ Sad to see...but I guess too many people were turned off by Trump’s tweets to give a damn as to what would become of the country without him.”
You think Biden won 80 million votes?
The left has pretty much destroyed everything in America. Historically speaking and hypothetically what I think is next after imploding the systems is to eliminate the Second Amendment and exterminate conservatives and most whites. Then the left will start purging their own.
My ex public university gets my taxes...that is all I’m gonna give. Will avoid giving my tax money as best I can legally.
