Mimi Groves/UT revoked admission

[DC_Vol]

Its news in the sense that it is a story about hurtful retaliation over a racial issue, but retaliation which seems to serve no purpose.

I’m sure that was the NYT’s motivation. Just covering the news.

You don't know many professors. There are no dreams of equality there; so much backstabbing and jockeying for power it actually looks like a it GOP primary.

Come to think of it, I'm not sure I graduated. I never took Liberal Inculcation seminar or Marxist Thought for Amerikanski. I hope they don't revoke my diploma.

Imagine making a stupid analogy about backstabbing in a party primary and not referencing the party that rigged its own internal elections and shoehorned in an unlikable ho that couldn't even win more than a handful of votes in said rigged internal elections.

It was one of those private dance academies. But no, I just stopped going to the over night competitions.

Were they Church of Christ or something?

Just prissy biotches.

Cant say I know any professors today and sure it matters which degree. I received my PS degree in 1989 and saw my share of it back then, so cannot imagine today. My ecomomics professor was open about his communism. Actually a down to earth fellow and good teacher.

Ever take a Women in Politics class and be one of only 3 males out of 15 or so in the class? Lucky to escape with your manhood.

I was about 19 years old and looking for part time work and went with one of those temp employment agencies. Got a call to be a judge in a beauty contest. I was like lets go. The Saturday morning put on my coat and tie and get down there and nothing but 4-12 year olds all painted up and about 20 Mothers in the audience. What a freak show.

I took Graduate Quantitative Analysis I and II with a mix of Psych and Business majors. The professor was a former private sector statistician. It was about as red in there as you could imagine.

Maybe I got lucky despite being in a liberal arts track and avoided the crazies. I'm certainly happy with my experience and pass on the requirement of hard work to my current students. If they want sympathy, they can find it in the dictionary between **** and syphilis. The world cuts you no slack.

The way it should be, but "safe spaces" and other liberal "woke" teachings are undeniably real. Mountains of evidence and even conservative speakers are protested. Just depends where you go I guess, but it is creeping into traditional conservative areas.

Safe spaces exist in the conservative realm, too. Look at this forum. Here, conservative ideologies and explorations are promoted and rewarded and members who have been attacked for their views are reinforced. It's the same idea, different name.

I am not a fan of many political speakers from any ideology - why are they always angry and telling you to to hate or who has wronged you? But the university experience is supposed to be about being exposed to multiple viewpoints and learning to operate around people who believe what you believe x 10 and people who are the very antithesis of your belief system. Too many of the kids who protest these issues are the offspring of lawnmower parents and have never had a difficulty in their short little lives.

I'm pretty sure there is no such job?

He ran complex linear regressions and analysis for some big-name corporate tech company. I just can't remember which company nor the exact job title. It's been way too many beers down the gullet since that class.

Reminds me of my high school physics class - Jock Physics. No girls, just me and 10 football players. One of whom was David Keith by the way (he played tight end).

Class was a continuous cut-up. Not much physics was taught, as you could imagine, but plenty of jokes about one’s manhood.

Fortunately I only had to put up with that nonsense for half a year, getting in to UT on early admission so I didn’t have to finish my senior year.

I was on my way home from Cincinnati and stopped in either Corbin or London KY to get food. They have a store that only sells children’s pageant clothes and accessories. It’s a crazy world.

Got it! And I was wrong, it wasn't private sector.

"Dr. Mohn has a Ph.D. in Educational Research from Virginia Commonwealth University. Prior to joining USM, he had a 15-year career at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond as a senior analyst, senior manager, and assistant vice president where he oversaw activities related to financial and strategic planning, operations research, and risk management. "

His class was a trip. He'd come in for our evening sessions the same way each time. "Good evening class. I hope you had a good day. What's our class motto?" Us: "SPSS sucks!"

So you were one of the jocks that got to attend a "special" foosball only players class where they all got A's for doing the optional go to the gym and work out routine?

Don't you think that the whole scenario makes her look immature at the time and poor judgment but remorseful now, but he just looks like a complete jerk?

That's right. You spent time too, in that hellhole known as Hattiesburg.

I worked there for 1 year, 1986, at an old resin plant, one of the worst of the dozen or so jobs I've had since I was a teen.

When a recruiter gave me a chance to sell catalysts for a big German outfit, I jumped at the chance to get out of there, and the rest is history.

Well had I not been hit on my motorcycle the summer before, there was a CHANCE of being #5 on the basketball team, in spite of being only 5'-6".

After spending that summer on crutches my career as a jock was cut short.

But I was not on the football team, I was a bit small for that, though I had played in pee wee or whatever.

I took a The History of American women’s class. 3 guys and 25 ladies. The professor was a women’s liberal/ lesb###. I crawled out the back door at the end of every class

We lived in Petal, just off Hwy 11. I saw more tornados in my four years there than in the 39 I've lived anywhere else. The covert racism that turned overt during the flag protests turned my stomach. So much hatred and anger over skin pigmentation. But there's a lot I do miss, and when I go down in May to walk the stage I can't wait to see those people.

But the heat and humidity can go die in a ditch somewhere.
