The only real crimes occurring on these college campuses is not expelling the students involved, not firing the teacher/professor.instructor involved and not instituting a written set of rules on how decent student and teachers are to behave, they all obviously need it. Your parents and caretakers obviously failed on common manners and on how to treat others. It ought to be illegal to pile up as many morons as we see on these campuses. Idiots.

All schools have a code of conduct that you are suppose to read when you enroll.

They may have read it, they damn sure didn't adhere to it.

Please don't talk like that - you're hurting my feelings. And my feelings don't like to be hurt.

Sadly Dad and Mom's money is not going to get much from these schools as far as a job goes.... I can see it now, "You went where?" Oh, well thanks for coming in, we will keep you in mind....

The value of a diploma from these places will just drop.

There are plenty of colleges where this nonsense does not go on. Ever hear of a demonstration at BYU, Texas A&M, Hillsdale Collage, even Georga Tech. In selection a college for you young one look for only one thing. See if they have programs in Womens Studies, Black Studies, Hispanic Studies, LBGT Studies etc.. If they do tell your pride and joy he/she ain't going there on your money.

As a sophomore college student, this is utterly pathetic. I cringed and winced while I struggled to watch entirety of the video. College is about a transition to reality, away from the coddled life at home with mommy and daddy handing you everything. It's a baptism by fire, you do it or you do not. This girl is at an YALE and she fails to understand this?

It sure wasn't with professors with tenure. They'd stop just short of telling you to fuck yourself while reminding you that since they had tenure you're evals were meaningless. This shit is just nonsense and hopefully these knuckleheads will flunk out from wasting all this time.

How do you flunk LHBT Black, Hispanic or women studies besides by being Straight White Male?
These are all majors we used to call Basket Weaving 101 which was back then Communications. At least comm studies needs mathematics and leads to jobs.

Good point. I forgot they were all in random majors.

No, college is for the scrap heap.
It's Hammer and Anvil tech.
