Ah, I clicked the wrong one. I stand corrected. There was an actual poopsticka, according to MU PD. Still don't know who did it, tho.
This girl is just insisting on her humanity, on her right to an education free from a hostile environment.
yea, thats exactly what she's doing. nothing hostile about that clip. shame she can't just go to class without white students being racist and faculty not doing anything about it.
Darrin plays the class warfare card AND busts out a racist caricature to boot.![]()
Hunger strike kid is playing a character.
You're really upset that his parents have money.
he's 25 and trying to make his way in life on his own without relying on his father's money. he's looking out for his peers as well, who i'm sure don't come from a wealthy background like he does. darrin would rather the guy shut up, not look out for other grad students and smooch off his parents.
That professor's wife had the audacity to send an email that stated college-aged students are grown up enough to make their own Halloween costume choices.
And I disagree with you about her being hostile in that video.
It's spreading

At Claremont McKenna College in California, the junior class president resigned Tuesday after a furor over a Facebook photograph that showed her posing with two women who were wearing sombreros, ponchos and mustaches for Halloween. A campus demonstration followed on Wednesday.
This is nuts
Trill Clinton where you at?
Quite a few other details you conveniently skipped over. Why not comment on the entire article?
right here and she did not say the same thing as those SAWM's. she did not say she was going to stand her ground and kill every white person she sees. apples and oranges.
Concerning?
because the entire article doesn't cover all of the years of harassment of black students by white supremacist students that went ignored before recently. oh and it started off with a blatant LIE. you white supremacists get so defensive when people call you out for being racist.
This needs to be do ented and brought out, no matter how long it takes.
you are so full of .
I'm not racist in the least bit and I'm not getting defensive. I'd just like to see the media wait for concrete proof before running a story that can cause people to lose their jobs. So far I've seen zero concrete proof concerning Mizzou and the student president has already been caught fabricating stories and admitted it. It's sad people like you are so quick to shout racism in cases like this. No different than the Mike Brown situation and the media's rush to call racism before having the facts.
A Plague of Racial Hoaxes on Campus

And, more recently, "nooses" at the Univ. of Delaware turned out to be remnants from paper lanterns.
Lol, listen to student in this video obviously in denial.
Any of you white-male-privilege supremacists think this rightwinger attempt to block academic research should be stopped?
GOP lawmaker tries to squelch Mizzou PhD student’s research on state’s restrictive anti-abortion laws
Sen. Kurt Schaefer complains University of Missouri student's research is "marketing aid" for Planned Parenthood
A Republican state senator in Missouri is so concerned about the findings of a University of Missouri doctoral student’s study on the impact and effectiveness of a new state law requiring a 72-hour waiting period for abortions that he is threatening to shut it down before she completes her dissertation.
one graduate student at the University of Missouri in the School of Social Work, is working to examine the impact of that law for her PhD. “The purpose of this study is to better understand why a significant number of women sign the 72-hour consent form to have an abortion, but then never return to the clinic to have the abortion procedure,” the participant consent do ents state. “Additionally, this study aims to understand how the new 72-hour waiting period in Missouri is impacting women and their decision whether or not to have an abortion.”
But one GOP Missouri state senator wants the study shut down on the grounds that is it illegal. Sen. Kurt Schaefer, who is running for Missouri attorney general, objects to the study, arguing that it’s merely a ruse to promote Planned Parenthood and abortions in violation of state law.
Schaefer, who is the interim head of the Committee on the Sanc y of Life, sent an October 30 letter to the university’s chancellor, R. Bowen Loftin, accusing the ins ution of using taxpayer funds to “encourage or counsel a woman to have an abortion not necessary to save her life.”
“The study does not appear to be designed as an objective, unbiased research project, but rather as a marketing aid for Planned Parenthood — one that is funded, in part or in whole, by taxpayer dollars,” Schaefer wrote, objecting to a section of the study’s participant consent form that indicates that “the information you provide may help Planned Parenthood of the St. Louis Region and Southwest Missouri improve its services to better meet the needs of women seeking abortions.”

They wanted a circus, they got one.
It's interesting that boutons brings up PP, because hunger strike millionaire specifically mentioned PP in his letter. Not sure what PP has to do with poopstickas or random truck-drivin bubbas yelling epithets.
The virus continues to spread.
Emory releasing a preemptive pukey SJW word salad
Dear Emory:
Dr. King’s often-quoted and powerful observation that “injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere” calls us to examine our own community when we see evidences of injustice in other communities. In the letter below, our own Senior Vice President and Dean of Campus Life, Dr. Ajay Nair, reminds us of this duty and points to the current activities and programs at Emory intended to open conversation and discovery and to seek further justice in the life of our campus community. I commend it to your reading, reflection, participation, and action.
Sincerely,
Jim Wagner, President
To the Emory Community:
Recent events at ins utions of higher education offer yet another reminder that issues of social justice are persistent and pervasive – although few of us need to be reminded, given the still-open wounds of the tragedies in Ferguson, Charleston, and other communities.
Today, we see a dramatic increase in college students’ awareness of and organized response to systemic oppression directed toward historically marginalized communities. The Black Lives Matter movement is one powerful example of such grassroots action led by a new generation of change agents.
As campus populations grow increasingly diverse, so too does social awareness. Students are embracing their own polycultural iden ies and those of others. They recognize that each of us is a composite of many iden ies, and that we cannot be defined solely by traditional criteria like race, religion, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or any other single aspect of the complex beings that we are.
Such awareness by our students eschews social injustice at personal and systemic levels – and demands positive change on our campuses and throughout our society.
Our Emory community is not immune from social injustice. We need to remain vigilant and engage in socially just and culturally humble ways as we pursue our collective vision to create a flourishing community. Toward that end, Emory has been taking a number of significant steps.
For example, three years ago, the Campus Life Compact was developed collaboratively by students and administrators. More recently, Creating Emory, now a key element in our orientation program, encourages first-year students to grapple with their own values and how their values relate to Emory’s great diversity and strongly held principles. Although many of the initiatives in the Campus Life Compact have been realized, we are working with students to achieve the remaining goals and also pursuing new initiatives to improve student life at Emory.
Last year, we officially launched a planning process to develop the Emory Campus Life Strategic Plan. This five-year plan will provide the foundation for building a nimble, dynamic campus life that intentionally and creatively embraces the challenges and opportunities facing higher education today – challenges in demographics, technology, politics, and more. If you are interested in joining our strategic planning efforts, please email Judith Pannell at [email protected].
As we work together to eliminate injustice and inequity, let us remember our commitment to open expression, which is fundamental to the Emory experience and the role of higher education in our society.
Justice and open expression are not mutually exclusive. In our daily lives, we may encounter unsettling, ignominious, unpopular, and even offensive and hateful ideas. At Emory, we have a unique opportunity to counter such ideas, the open expression of which our policy protects. If we don’t counter the ideas we disagree with, we cannot possibly create a more socially just community, and we most certainly cannot passionately pursue and discover truth—a hallmark of our great university.
As always, I thank you for your commitment to Emory and look forward to working with you to help you achieve your personal goals and make outstanding contributions to this university and the world.
Best Wishes,
Ajay Nair, Senior Vice President and Dean of Campus Life
