Mizzou losing $32 million to "unrest", KU at the tipping point as well.

There are a LOT of things going on here in Missouri and Kansas. There have been several incidents of racial unrest starting last Fall and culminating in severe budget concerns at Missouri.

If you haven't seen what has happened there, it's quite a story.

Meanwhile here at Kansas, we have our own student uprising. I have been reticent to mention my own part in this but my wife was caught in this net.

Just last night, the KU student senate voted to fund a completely separate Multicultural Student Government that might rise to the same power as themselves, it's unclear. Some protesters from MU came over and threatened to "disrupt things" if their demands weren't met.

I will say now that this is an interesting discussion and can absolutely be had without devolving into politics or personal attacks. It's some crazy stuff.

There are several discussions going on the Mizzou and KU boards about this stuff, I just wonder how much it's getting out to the rest of the world. People from all over the country have messaged my wife about her situation. I know the U of M has had their own campus protesters.

Seems like they want to revive 1965 all over again.

Are you saying your wife the COMM professeor?

I haven't heard any reference to it on the news here. Yesterday I did hear some of the ludacris demands that a group at Western Washington University are making though.

This type of stuff almost makes me hope my kids don't go to college. There is no telling how this will escalate in the next 20 years.

yeah, unfortunately I'm stuck in the middle of this whole thing.

It's happening everywhere. I think they saw how effective it was at Mizzou and just went with it. Kids need attention these days and this is a great way to get it. Only takes a couple people with an ax to grind to get everything cooking.

Best of luck to you and your wife.

What happened to her flies in the face of common sense and academic freedom. She deserves better treatment as a person, an employee, and a scholar.

The University should have protected her.

I'm very concerned that this is going to spread across the country.

If people can't be judged by the content of their character their words should at least be judged in context.

Goddamn pop culture is going to ruin everybody's spelling...

That sucks. Sorry you're having to go through this.

The first thing that popped into my head when I read the article you posted is I wonder what these kids thought of the F. Lee Bailey and Mark Ferman scene Tuesday in the people vs. OJ. Their heads must have exploded.

These social justice warriors and their it's 100% my way or the highway, if I don't like one statement you made I'll demand that you're immediately fired, free speech means I should never be offended attitude need to get over themselves and grow up. Their hearts are originating in the right place, and if they applied their energy correctly they could bring on some significant change, but things like this can only hurt their cause.

How do you know that an appearance by Ludacris wasn't one of their demands?
