Given what’s been unfolding at this school for the past few weeks, lots of people will probably agree with this idea.

Campus Reform reports:

Lawmakers propose defunding Evergreen State amid protests

State lawmakers in Washington are fed up with the antics of Evergreen State College, and plan to introduce legislation Thursday to privatize the left-leaning institution.

As Campus Reform initially reported, hundreds of students marched through campus last week demanding the resignation of Professor Bret Weinstein, who had questioned the school’s decision to ask white people to leave campus for a day of diversity programming in an all-staff email.

In previous years, non-white students and faculty members voluntarily left campus to attend diversity workshops while their white counterparts conducted their own programming on-campus, but this year the format was flipped in response to complaints that non-white students feel unwelcome on campus in the wake of Donald Trump’s election.

Despite the protesters’ profanity-laced denunciations of him, school President George Bridges praised their “passion and courage” while capitulating to demands that they be excused from homework assignments for the duration of their demonstration.

The bill, spearheaded by Republican State Representative Matt Manweller, will be introduced alongside a letter to the state Human Rights Commission requesting an investigation into potential civil rights violations on campus surrounding the incident.

Manweller and his colleagues are also discussing the possibility of revoking $24,000,000 in annual funding to Evergreen State College, but pledge that all students on campus will remain eligible for full financial aid from the state, should the bill become law.

It’s revealing that the Seattle Times, principal newspaper in Washington State, has stuffed this story down the memory hole and won’t utter a peep about it. On its comment section, it erases posts which give links to the story.

NOTHING in the Times (yet) about this legislative notice of the ‘Intersectional Shakedown’ by the students and the college President, either.

Defunding is the very least that needs to be done. Any faculty member proposing or supporting this obviously racist policy should be terminated immediately. Any student doing the same should be expelled immediately.

Enough of the ongoing, escalating, blatant racism. Fed up with the insanity gripping this nation and its “higher education” campuses.
