Joe Miner Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 Clemson University Administrator Stops Man From Praying on Campus This isnt a free speech area. (VIDEO) http://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2016/08/clemson-university-administrator-stops-man-praying-campus-isnt-free-speech-area-video/ If you havent been following higher education news, you may not be aware that this sort of thing is happening on college campuses all over America. Schools are designating certain areas as free speech zones and in some cases even restricting those areas to certain times of day. Before you get too angry at the administrator in this video, remember that he wasnt the one who created this policy, hes just charged with the awful task of enforcing it. These ridiculous policies are created by higher level administrators in closed meetings. Since bathrooms at public schools fall under title 9, wouldn't any university getting govt money fall into the same category? Which would mean that the govt should be threatening to withhold funding for any university that makes this rule. I'm eagerly awaiting this press conference.

B-Man Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 In 1838, two priests who served as president of the university orchestrated the sale of 272 people to pay off debts at the school. The slaves were sent from Maryland to plantations in Louisiana. So...........to make up for that GEORGETOWN To Give Slave Descendants Priority For Admission... That sounds fair, I'm sure today's applicants understand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds fair, I'm sure today's applicants understand I don't really see a problem with that if they're a privately owned school. At least is makes more sense than some of the other crap that's been going on around colleges and universities lately. I'd be interested to see how they determine whether someone is descended from those particular slaves though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about we issue a certificate proving blood line back and only those with the certificate are eligible for special benefits. I swear I heard somebody in Europe tried something similar once upon a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Are you descended from Sally Hemmings?" There are a hell of a lot of white descendants of slaves in the country. Conversely, there are a hell of a lot of blacks not descendants of slaves, as well. This is a good plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbb Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 It seems whenever people do that ancestry DNA thing, they've got all kinds of nationalities in them. This should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grinreaper Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 http://www.thecollegefix.com/post/28906/ ‘A safe space for Black CSLA students …’ California State University Los Angeles recently rolled out segregated housing for black students. The arrangement comes roughly nine months after the university’s Black Student Union issued a set of demands in response to what its members contend are frequent “racist attacks” on campus, such as “racially insensitive remarks” and “microaggressions” by professors and students. One demand was for a “CSLA housing space delegated for Black students.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
