Who says today’s young people don’t play old-time,
traditional games anymore? The radicals and black students at Kansas University
are playing the fond old game of follow-the-leader after watching the Missouri
University student body punch the MU administration a few times and get away
with it. Young people have traditionally attended college to learn, but at MU
and KU what the black students are learning is that if they make racist demands
they’ll get what they want. The very fact that these black students are
attending the university is proof that racism isn’t an issue at KU or MU, and
when student demands are made for idiotic things not related to education, it can
be assumed that those students making the demands are there for political
reasons that have nothing to do with higher education.
On the other hand, the current-day radicals making
these demands are learning that the liberal administrators at our major
universities do not hold any hard and fast principles of what it takes to
properly educate a student body because they will buckle under to any and all
threats so as not to appear to be racists.
Is that principled leadership? Are the administrators actually being
racist by surrendering traditional education principles to the students’
demands? I see only “liberal privilege” in the black students’ demands and in their
disruption of all the other students’ educations. But for conservatives, it’s sort
of fun to watch the liberal administrators at KU and MU take a few punches from
the young students spouting their “white privilege” crap at the president and
faculty. It’s like we’re living the
sixties all over again.
Some enlightening feed-back is being provided to
anyone observing these ridiculous goings-on: by caving to the student’s
off-the-wall demands liberal administrators are either admitting that their
long-held policies of educating students are wrong, as mentioned above, or the
administrators are themselves being racists by backing off from the policies
that are known to provide a solid educational background for students to make
them successful in the current and future competitive world. I ask the
administrators of KU and MU: which is it? If you believe that studying the book
Fifty Shades of Grey is really
offering a sound education and that free education and a forgiveness of college
loans is sustainable without forcing future confiscatory taxes to be paid by
the very students who are now insisting on these idiotic things, then announce
your decision and go with it.
