[Grumpyolman]

We need to completely expose these stinking communists that are indoctrinating our kids.

that which is going on in the big-shot universities renders
me nauseated. It was happening in my school---way back
in the '60 s --- 70' s era----NOW my idiot classmates became
THE PROFESSORS

What an absolutely weak generation has been created. And it begins in pre-K and all through K-12, thanks to the Marxist teachers unions.

​

Professors at Harvard and Princeton have canceled classes following Trump’s victory, and other units within the universities are offering “spaces” to process the election results.​

​

At Harvard University, the courses “Sociology 1156: Statistics for Social Sciences,” “Applied Math 22a: Solving and Optimizing,” and the general education courses “The Ancient Greek Hero” and “Popular Culture and Modern China” canceled Wednesday class sessions, made attendance optional, or extended assignment deadlines, according to the student-run paper the Crimson. ​

​

An undergraduate student at Harvard told National Review that the first 30 minutes of a section meeting for the class “Gov 1790: American Foreign Policy” were dedicated to origami folding. ​

​

Harvard economics lecturer Maxim Boycko said in an email that the in-class quiz for “Economics 1010a: Intermediate Microeconomics” would be optional this week and further permitted students to “take time off,” per the Crimson. ​

​

“As we recover from the eventful election night and process the implications of Trump’s victory, please know that class will proceed as usual today, except that classroom quizzes will not be for credit,” Boycko wrote. “Feel free to take time off if needed.”​

​

According to the Crimson, Physics professor Jennifer E. Hoffman said in an email to physics students and faculty that her office would be “a space to process the election.”​

I thought these over paid baby sitters are supposed to prepare theses kids to be productive adults. Perhaps they should be telling the kids disappointment is part of life and they need to learn to deal with it. Of course the profs most likely just wanted a paid day off.

Raising a generation of pussies.

I was not happy when Obama won.

Nobody cancelled classes then.

They are so butt hurt over there they should just close the school down permanently. These people will never be the same again.

I won't comment on the decision to allow students recuperation time after the election but I will ask one question:

if VP Harris had won, would the schools have provided the same accommodation to those who were not in support of her? If the answer is "no" then there is a problem. I suspect that the answer would be "no."

I will confess I didn't work Wednesday either. I stayed up late Tuesday and was listening to all the analyses Wednesday. I was and still am on Cloud Nine. It was the greatest Election Day in American history.

At least this time my candidate wasn’t winning when I went to bed in the early A.M. and had lost when I got up six hours later.
