Damn Your Hide, Ivy League!

Ivy league isn't what it used to be. It's just a place for connections now

It's pretty stunning just how many of our institutions are voluntarily destroying themselves for the sake of ideology. These are some weird times.

We got a very late start w the procreation, so we're talking 17-20 years down the road... I can't imagine what colleges and universities will look like. I have a feeling we will be looking at a combo of small, conservative liberal arts schools (Covenant College, Hillsdale and the like) and the kids learning a trade in a trade school and/or apprenticeships. Maybe I'll finally have that family business up in the northern rockies.

State universities, larger private schools, and most liberal arts colleges won't be an option for free thinkers (unless you just keep your head down and make it through for the paper).

Unless there's a sea change, we're looking at full-blown censorship and statist indoctrination.

In the heart of my liberal arts experience at LSU--25+ years ago--there was a wonderful diversity of minds, but even then you could see the beginning of the end for the old school (that, and they were just old). Fast forward 25 years from now, and I really don't see any intellectual diversity surviving in mainstream academia.

Eh, it’s more likely that the filter through which you view the world is selectively pumping you with a very limited subset of the whole picture in order to misrepresent the prevelance of the socialist minority so as to ensure your continued rage clicks and their continued revenue stream.

No dumbass, the fact that something like 95% of their profs and administrators identify as democrats is probably an indication that they indoctrinate more than educate.

and the fricking socialists absolutely control the Democrat party, someone would have to be a professionally classified moron to not see that

The display of that South Bend mayor grovelling because he said "all lives matter" 3 years ago is all the proof anyone should need. Did I get that through a "filter" or did he really demean himself miserably like I thought I watched?

Ivy League universities are desperately trying to justify socialism

Just gently ask them how they plan to solve the incentive problem.

The Democratic Party missed the Boat.

To the Democratic party members, you are being played for fools by MSNBC/CNN telling you there's a lot of bad news about Trump.

The impeachment Show Boat has sailed when Robert Mueller said. "No evidence was found about Donald Trump conspiring with the Russians against the best interest of America politically." All these same Democrats who promise bad news about Donald Trump are a fool who keep staying in the freak Show when everyone else is leaving to go to the big Circus that making our lives better. Do the Democrats like being in the Freak Show instead of going to the real Circus?

The once revered Ivy League universities kept criticizing this country's forefathers and our country's Three Branches of Government. Now what?

What an interesting, spontaneous, and totally unforeseeable circumstance.

The actual number of people who support this viewpoint are in fact limited, but without enormously powerful forces pushing this viewpoint into the mainstream at the same time it wouldn’t exist at all because it’s a failed system that was extinct in the American zeitgeist until the last election cycle.

I would argue that Obama ran on that platform back in 2008

His Campaign Slogan was "Hope and Change"
The exact same slogan that Hugo Chavez used in Venezuela "ESPARANZA Y CAMBIO"

David Hogge got into Harvard

It is not "elite"
