New University of Austin

Tell that to black people. They themselves are revolting against crt. This is one of the more racist doctrine ever created. Who backed the KKK? Look it up 1985coog. That is a fact. This is the same party that starts with a D.

Beliefs are not facts. Just because people can be convinced of something doesn’t mean it’s based in any reality. It just means can they be easily mislead. Especially if it is repeated thousands of times by others that have an obvious agenda.

But to get us back on track here on Grift U. Forbidden Course Number Two “Always remember that 150 years ago Democrats were the racists and we were the good guys! This judo move allows us to ignore all political, people, and ideas sitting of the last 50 years!”

So appears they are losing advisory board members.

Robert J. Zimmer, the chancellor of the University of Chicago, and Steven Pinker, the Johnstone Family Professor in the Department of Psychology at Harvard University, quit the University of Austin’s advisory board on Monday.

I’m betting the commies got to them.

150 years ago?
History does not lie. You can try to “massage” it every which way you want. Facts, 1985coog unite racists with a party that starts with a D. Party leaders, VP, Secretary of State that take on a southern accent in a black church is the epitome on how racists these people are. Our own so called president lying about “corn pop” “If you are black you have to vote for me” How despicable is this?
History is made of facts.
A university is about critical thinking. A university is not about force feeding an ideology. This reminds me of the days when I took my political science classes. My then Professor was applauding socialism. I listened and then raised my hand. I asked questions knowing the answers. He replied with non sense answers. When I replied with my own living experiences he was taken back that a student could have either a reply or an explanation. We had a debate for a few minutes. The other students loved it. My so called professor not so much. You see I did not fit the narrative of the student that have no life experience of the actual subject. This is what a university should be about. Debate with a real dialogue on both sides. Do you understand the difference now.

It is amazing how triggered some folks get at the thought of honest debate over different points of view.

Honest debate is fine. When you lose the debate, and how you respond to that fact , is the next
point to consider. In my opinion, America’s universities are the finest in the world. And I think the various rankings out there show that too. So if “conservative ideas” don’t dominate thought in American schools , perhaps these ideas just don’t stand the test of questioning and analysis with
supporting data. Or I suppose you could conclude they are all infested with socialistic and communistic professors, it’s not fair :rage:, and we must create universities with a “conservative” bias, because I’m upset I lose all intellectual challenges. Is that the gist of it ?

When is the last time you heard of a radical leftist being run off a campus and not allowed to speak?

Art Briles at Baylor count ? He was running a very liberal program in regards to reporting and following up on potential crimes.

If you consider playing fast and loose with the rules and laws to be liberal then I will give you that one.

You are exactly right. The radical leftist that RUN our public and large number of private universities want you to believe that freedom of speech is alive and well on campus. Any ideas that can come close to the center is immediately rejected. It has become so bad that students are afraid to speak up and express their point of views by fear of retaliation and bad grades.
There is constant reminder/message from many universities professors hammering the point that white people men and women are automatically racist and they should be shamed.
A certain party can’t even have a free debate on campus anymore by fear of physical attacks.
This is very concerning.

Universities are run by administrators.

Not left. Not Right. Not Blue. Not Red.

Not conservative. Not Liberal.

Administrators want higher salaries for themselves and no one else. Perhaps a little power too.

If you don’t understand that, you don’t understand university administrators.

Plain and simple.

Money.

Just having a little fun conflating the terms ;). But honestly, I fail to see or hear serious
people think free speech doesn’t exist and conservatives are “being banned”. You may can
find a few instances at Berkeley where folks with a conservative message have had a rough
time or been disinvited but I really don’t see a “big problem” here. Sure those instances are
wrong , but hardly the biggest problem in America. I’ll give you the fact that many of the “being censored” crowd don’t understand social media and principles of free speech. The private companies like FB and twitter have their terms and conditions; just like coogfans.

So I’m perfectly fine if these folks think they are creating a “conservative school”. Enjoy.
Will be good place for antivaxers, antidemocracy, anti science, flat earthers to go for
unaccredited degrees.

Outstanding.

It’s what the mission of a liberal arts education suppose to be, like a jazz quartet, where all the instrumentation sound disentangled, but with improvisation and practice, it becomes all harmonious.

People are just looking for their own echo chambers. I don’t get it but they can have at it.

Aww sounds like someone needs a safe space.

Lot of cry babies in the article, only one that’s fair is the girl who said she might run afoul a vague harassment policy at UCF those are in fact bad. Other students don’t like your message and you suffer consequences? Tough s**" snow flake call someone who cares. Self censoring for a professor? Welcome to the real world. Where if your opinions or running your mouth run afoul of your employer or make the company look bad you could find yourself out of a job.

If that was the case, everyone on this board would be far left. We a went to a public university right?
