[SF1900]

Talking about not having a sense of perspective, do you even know what they're fighting about?

Vid is around 10 minutes, but u won't believe it. I can't explain it as I have no words for this. "Elite students" lmao

He is dipshit.

Coach doesn't let his ideologies/political views  hinder his job performance.  These students do.

i thought we were talking about going to school not going to work.

these are very different things no?

I'll have you know, trolling is considered an art form on Getbig.



The lecturer, Erika Christakis, an expert in early childhood education, wrote an email in October suggesting that there could be negative consequences to students ceding “implied control” over Halloween costumes to institutional forces. “I wonder, and I am not trying to be provocative: Is there no room anymore for a child or young person to be a little bit obnoxious,” she wrote, “a little bit inappropriate or provocative or, yes, offensive?”

These words caused this temper tantrum and two professors to resign.

The interesting thing is Nicholas Christakis has spent his entire career researching, studying, and advocating for racial, health, and income inequality. You can't get any more liberal than that!! Further, in 2009, he was named to the Time 100, Time magazine's list of the 100 most influential people in the world.[2] In 2009 and again in 2010, Christakis was named by Foreign Policy magazine to its list of top global thinkers.

You think these students would look at what this man has done, and be able to reason that his assertion of free speech is mutually exclusive from his academic studies.

And, yet, despite ALL his achievements, he is let go. Very messed up.

Every university in South Africa is pretty much closed due to protests, since exams last December. The students are protesting that they have to pay for university, and that some of them are excluded (by the way, I lectured electronics to third year students who didn't know ohms law), that some of them are being excluded (entry is a 45% pass rate from school), and that the university is using (wait for it) external cleaning companies as the workers want their kids to go to uni for free as employees kids or something. There is a fucking hashtag campaign called "#feesMustFall". FFUUUCCCKKK it is insane, how anyone would value a free fucking education from africa is beyond me. Buildings have been burnt, cactuses have been lifted up and broken etc. etc. Dindu Style over here, and it is close to a "#passOnePassAll" situation . Really. I am part of the literal 10% that pay taxes, so I am paying for all the burnt buildings etc. as well as my own education up to and including masters level. During that time I remember my prof, supervisor and I hiding behind a locked door, silent, as political science students marched and sang through the building trashing shit.

Fucking study, don't protest. Students should be banned from politics

Is Brown University a top school? If so, be aware that their admission process is really tight and you have to demonstrate that you're not only a qualified student (via GPA, SAT, GRE) but also you have a lot to offer to the institution (extra curricular activities). Students in top schools are far from being morons, as you are far from being 6'0.

Let me bring you to the real world and how liberals like you are ruining it. The standards to get into a Ivy league school are sky high for a white person unless your family has big money. The standards for admissions to get into a Ivy league school for academics are even higher for Asians because they would keep so many whites out of the school. The standards for Blacks into an Ivy League are low. Many are subsidized or completely free.

Here is your real generation nothingness. The indoctrination continues.

correct.  it's not the dems or the repubs.  it is this entire crap generation.

Planned parenthood advocate donald J trump just won with evangelicals in south freaking carolina.

society is doomed.

Actually, that is not quite true. I know of black students who have gotten into Ivy League schools and their SATs were sky high, GPA as well, and they were in this club, and that club, etc.

[johnnynoname]

Brown is a good school and it is also in the Northeast so it isn't that much of a shock that most of the student body is filled with damn liberals who want to protest everything


the same goes for Choad...

[Parker]

She got went to a Harvard extension school and tried to pass it off as Harvard for years. I don't think she does that anymore. George Bush was a legacy.

Ah, ok...hmmm.

[johnnynoname]

and don't give me that look!!!


if I didn't do that joke, someone else would have...fuck off

[Qwert II]

which university did you graduate from?

 

I'd be shocked if "coach" had anything more than a high school degree at best. Higher education & critical thinking don't seem to be his forte.

[johnnynoname]

"Brown" is a university

So you just really wanted to say Choad didn't you

[johnnynoname]

the punchline is that the school is called "Choate" but because i'm a doing the "Cavone" gimmick (for the purpose of that joke) I have to call it "choad"

Why are you lying?

You're fighting a losing battle with your lack of substance in your dig posts at me. Proves you're nothing more than an invisible troll who talks shit behind a keyboard....much like lurker.

LOL!

[Coach is Back!]

Brown University is an Ivy League school and one of the best universities in America. It ranks up there with Harvard, Yale, Columbia, etc, etc.

There isn't much of a difference between an Ive League school or almost any other university. It costs more, harder to get in and it looks better on a resume'. You can get the same education at just about any other university that offers the same classes.

Well, do you have university degree? My guess is you barely made it out of high school & then have a PT "coaching" degree & that's about it.

You're not exactly Ivy League material "coach". You're more of the guy that works in a bait & tackle store.

People say that shit to make themselves feel better, LOL!

It's better to say "Every black kid at a top school is there due to affirmative action" than "That black kid had better grades than mine".
