re: New LSU president would not give an answer when asked about changing LSU traditions

There will be quotas based on race, and who knows, maybe based on gender too.

I think it Would be hard to do a quota on race.

When I was In IFC there were at most 2-3 black guys going through rush. Idk what the numbers are for the women.

And those guys all eventually got bids somewhere.

The only obstacle I found Was some guys couldn’t pay dues.

But that’s sorta the price of admission isn’t it. The friendships are free. Parties and tailgates costs money.

Gosh, I hate to come across as the leftist here, bc that is not remotely who I am. But, the over-reaction is getting tedious.

Academia is all very left-wing. It is so much worse than the worst I've read, I do not know what to say.

But, I read two of Tate's articles. They are not remotely what so many are suggesting. He has argued that students in poor and/or predominately black neighborhoods have had academic difficulties. Often, we did not support them as perhaps we should have.

I cannot imagine anyone who would disagree with that. We did so much harm in the black community, what should we expect?

That said, Tate has argued we should increase math and science education in poor and predominately black neighborhoods. I agree. Don't you? How else can we expect people to get jobs?

Give the guy a break, at least for awhile. He yelled "geaux tigers!" I cannot imagine he will oppose the Tigers as a name. He was not my first choice, but I have no influence (well, a little but not much).

Leftists over-react and exaggerate all the time. Why follow that pattern??? I have a friend who teaches CRT. She is a good person. We do not agree politically; however, when my Mom died and later when my Wife died, she was the first person to offer help. Do not assume CRT people are bad. Do not assume they are crazy.

Tate never said, as far as I can find, that math is racist. He argued the support for math education was racially motivated. Hell, it was. I saw that 60 years ago when I was a kid. It was a disgrace. We are now reaping what our parents and grandparents sowed.

Please, give it a rest. Have a little faith. God is in his Heaven. All is Right with the World.

I'd like to hear from the people of south carolina and see what they think of him.....
LSU was in a difficult position...with all that was going on it wasnt like people were beating down the door for the job...

You originally stated that “ LSU president would not give an answer when asked about…..”, in response he stated “he didn’t have all of the history or facts to go into detail, but would make an effort to "historicize and contextualize" certain building names and monuments”. That sounds like an answer to me. I’m assuming that you just didn’t like his answer.

You do know that threatening a FEDERAL EMPLOYEE IS A FEDERAL CRIME right dip shite?

It appears the left has defined what a white supremacist is for you and it’s an extremely broad definition

Not broad enough to capture all the whack jobs on this board.

You do know that if we increase the minimum wage from 5.75 to 15.00 it will motivate individuals to be self sufficient and not Government dependent?
