"Your So-Called Education

 

We would be happy to join in the celebrations if it weren’t for our recent research, which raises doubts about the quality of undergraduate learning in the United States. Over four years, we followed the progress of several thousand students in more than two dozen diverse four-year colleges and universities. We found that large numbers of the students were making their way through college with minimal exposure to rigorous coursework, only a modest investment of effort and little or no meaningful improvement in skills like writing and reasoning."

 

 

 

 

The dumbing down is so pervasive anyone who can rub two sticks together cane get a 4 year degree.

Liberal way,....make it so everyone can pass and get an A.

Florida rapper sparks outrage with new music video which shows him LYNCHING a young white boy

• XXXTentacion's video for Look At Me shows him lynching a young white boy 
• It also shows him and two other black men being hanged elsewhere in the video
• The video reenacts the killings of Emmett Till, Philando Castile and Heather Heyer, a white woman who was killed at the Charlottesville protests 
• XXXTentacion claims the video condemns racial violence on both sides 
• He was blasted by critics who said it was 'sick' to use a kid to prove a point 
• In the past, rapper was accused of beating a pregnant woman and strangulation

There's being a SJW and then there's using LOGIC.

 

That video is not going to make any positive impact on the issue nor is it a "1st Amendment" right.

It's true.

 

My undergrad, a private University in NY, was shockingly easy. I expected to work hard to pass. Instead, I found it stupid easy. The bar was set extremely low from day one. I completely agree.

 

I remember my first assignment I came in with a ten or so page bound on nice paper that I likely spent 15 hours or so on over the weekend. Turned it in hoping I was doing things right. Others showed up with 1or 2 pages asking the proctor if they could use their stapler... I realized at that moment that this was just a path to graduate school. Which is now where people actually work toward growth, not the weekend. It was once (then elective) high school, then it was college/trade school, now graduate school.

 

It's all just a business, thus kicking people out is bad business. Thus standards need to be kept low. I'm quite pissed about it too. 20% at most should go to college in my opinion.

I knew it was bad, but this is one of the scariest things I have ever read.

(agree with the 20%). My line of work(nursing) always has a high kick out rate, so you kind of miss what is going on in other parts of the school. Not uncommon to start with 60+ and end with 10 or less.

Of all the things i've heard Kim Jong Un called, "rocket man" is the best one,so yes funny.

If you're referring to Rocket man,until he hurts somebody Trump would be a fool to attack.I think Canada should step it up on this one.Kim Jong Un doesn't fear you guys at all.It would be a total surprise.

[datzenmike]

He doesn't appear to fear you either. Historically appeasement has caused wars.

The gay men turning to the far right in Germany

 

Karsten P. empties a test tube filled with metal pieces into the palm of his hand. They're the tiny screws and bolts that held his face together after he and his partner Sven were violently assaulted in a life-changing attack outside their local store.

 

Two surgeries later and fearful of being attacked again, the openly gay 52-year-old taxi driver -- who doesn't want to be identified because of concerns of another attack -- avoids public spaces and always takes pepper spray with him. He and his partner have also been forced to move neighborhoods in the northwest German city of Bremen following mounting costs as a result of being injured.

 

"I went outside and saw someone kicking my partner's head. I was trying to stop him and right at that moment, I got hit from the side," Karsten recalls about the attack. "I kind of lost consciousness and when I got up again, I thought my partner was dead. He was all covered in blood and he didn't move at all."

 

Police identified the attackers as two locally known Muslim extremists. They were never arrested and later fled to Syria. After demanding answers from local prosecutors and the mayor's office and not getting a response, Karsten turned to Germany's far right party, the Alternative for Germany (AfD).

 

"I don't like everything they say," Karsten says, "but this is too dangerous for gay people to live openly here, if we get attacked like that. We need a party that's talking openly about this."

 

Campaigning on a vociferously anti-immigration platform, the four-year-old AfD party now has seats in 13 of the country's 16 state parliaments. It has proposed a ban on mosque minarets and cutbacks on migration, from within the European Union and beyond, while its party manifesto says that "Islam does not belong in Germany."

 

In some ways, the AfD is an unlikely place for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) voters. The party has threatened to sue the government for allowing the recent vote to legalize same-sex marriage, and the AfD manifesto advocates the "traditional family as a guiding principle."

 

Yet one of the AfD's top candidates, Alice Weidel, is an openly gay woman raising children with her partner. Weidel, an economist, was brought in as the softer, moderating face of the party, but her campaign speeches show she can deliver an angry rant on immigration as well as her AfD peers.

SO,....the education system,....I started to look around for a better model. This just might be the one. Kind of have to listen into it for a while before it gets to the education part,.....a comment on the part if it was here in the states, I am sure I would not have picked my current profession. With the combination of Navy and Civilian to get education. Oh and getting some scratch while still in HS, yea I would have gone for that.

Fuck laughing at this asshole, DO something.

Beside sanctions, there is no good option. And sanctions are pretty much worthless.

[racerx]

Sanctions will only hurt the general population. Fat boy has other ways to support himself and his regime. Counterfeit 100.00 bills floating around, arms sales, fake viagras, etc. Its a no win situation...
