Is there anyone who has been more successful at failing upwards than Hunter Biden?
He gets protection from every direction.
Meanwhile, the Classics are now under fire for some reason.
- Students at Rutgers Get Trigger Warnings in Classics and History Course
- Students at Howard University Protest Cutting of Classics Department
Compare and contrast.
- North Carolina School District Urges Teachers to Ignore Parents’ Concerns and Teach Critical Race Theory
- Course at Syracuse U. Questions Whether Higher Education Should Stop Teaching Shakespeare
Of course she is.
No one believes this anymore. There have been too many hoaxes.
The left is creating a climate of fear.
- Faculty Fear At Cornell: “I worry every day I enter class that I will say something that a student will find offensive”
- Professor Threatened by Colleagues for Advising Conservative Student Group
This is happening all over the country.
Diversity is the unofficial religion of higher education.
- GMU President Cites ‘Diversity’ to Justify Illegal Goal of Race-Based Hiring
- U. Maryland to Spend $40 Million Over Next Decade on Improving Faculty Diversity
So true.
Needs more letters.
Unreal.
Well OK, then.

My question is, “How do you right-size the amount and kinds of pushback to institutionalized insanity?” Right now, it seems the first step beyond complaining is to withhold money. But what if that does not work (for whatever reason)? Then, what’s next? That question leads me down a rather dark path. I hope I’m being pessimistic. Can anyone cheer me up?
I am afraid I cannot cheer you up at this point.
Alumni can withhold money, sure, and that might be painful for a while. But that will matter less and less as the money comes from elsewhere–mostly from overseas..
In one institution of which I am aware, master’s programs have expanded while new ones have also sprouted up. All of these programs are the cash cows of certain schools within the institution.
Thousands of applications come in from students who are willing and able to pay cash for at least two years of graduate classes. And admissions instructions require that at least fifty percent of the applicants are accepted in order to guarantee a certain yield (which means that mediocre applicants are pulled into the matriculating mix.)
It’s a mill.
Who needs piddly donations?
Here’s something to cheer about: leaving this dump of a nation that ours has become and creating a new land, leaving the left behind.
Secession should be on everyone’s mind, lest you lose your mind – and your freedom.
The inmates are running the asylum. Literally.
