This is at least his second incarnation since asking for the nuke from orbit request. @King George was one that got crowd-sourced after spreading a bunch of trash info on the flood thread in July.

Did Dr Beeper get banned or did he request that one to be erased as well?

Saw something about profs leaving schools in the south in record numbers. This should speed up the exit of people from UT. Also - when will they start using the tower bell for Christian hymns?

What about the @porterhouse account?  I think that one got erased too.  He and lobo (RIP) probably have the records for most deleted accounts.

Everything is a fucking shakedown to him. "Better access" to funding. Kiss the ring and daddy will let you set on his lap and give you a few dollars. Fucking disgusting. What a joke of an educational system we're going to have. International reputation for academic excellence? Ehhh, if God King says it's ok to teach, we'll teach it enthusiastically, otherwise, what is "knowledge" anyways. Smart people don't like him, so smart is actually dumb and education is gay.

One silver lining here is that aggy is going to be so mad that we got offered the chance to lick boots first.

Trump said they had to get rid of those fruity male "cheerleaders" and aggy said no

I think the admin is specifically talking about escaped CR inmates coming into DT and being mean. 

Odd negative response. I’m not sure your sarcasm meters are appropriately calibrated gentlemen. Carry on I suppose.

The schools are being asked to ban the use of race or sex in hiring and admissions; freeze tuition for five years; cap international undergrad enrollment at 15%; require that applicants take the SAT or a similar test; and stop "grade inflation." They will be required to share all known information about foreign students. It also obligates them to abolish departments that “purposefully punish, belittle, and even spark violence against conservative ideas.”

I like all of those ideas. The last sounds legally dubious, as any law requires some sort of objective basis that is not strictly political. Nothing outside of the last part sounds controversial.

Banning using race in hiring etc.? Sure, ban racism. If you are opposed to race neutrality, you are a racist. I hate racism. It is illogical, immoral, and illegal according to the supreme court.

Freeze tuition? Why not. The goal is to reduce administrative bloat.

Grade inflation? We should have full disclosure regarding grades but we don't. I was in some intro 500 person class and the TA wrote 2.7 in big letters on the chalkboard and said "this is the class GPA". Wheat and chaff and all that. There's definitely been grade inflation, the Ivy's championed it mostly so they could get money from rich people.

SAT - whatever, it's redundant, because of course you cannot assess potential without a standardized test. Harvard abolished this, realized they were admitting idiots, then reintroduced it. G is a thing.

The international student thing is a national security issue. Firstly, they are guests and entitled to no privacy whatsoever. Second, we need to know if a Chinese or Russian national is studying cutting edge nuclear physics, doing advanced AI work, or learning bomb design in an engineering department. 

There is a serious crisis in higher education. This is an attempt to move things in the right direction, mostly via practical measures.

Could you be more specific? Because there are certainly issues with higher education, but I'm not sure anything that is being pushed is going to positively impact any outcomes.

Anyone care to tag Sid Miller on this?
