Mostly, I remain worried that this is the way of breaking news softly, before later revealing that we agreed to a modified compact, which would still be 100% bullshit.

These two words are what concerns me, because what do these even mean (and "value" sounds like tuition-related, but maybe I'm reaching):

I am concerned that he mentions “The University of Texas at Austin will serve as a model for restoring public trust in higher education.“ The public already trusted higher education until people deliberately tried to destroy that trust with lies. UT Austin should not even feel the need to acknowledge public distrust and give these ridiculous ideas any credibility. To do so is to suggest the university has gone astray and will now fix the role it played in causing this fictitious problem.

This email went out from Jim Davis this afternoon:


Sorry if formatting is weird, pasting from my phone. It doesn’t mention the compact, which could be a sign they are planning to ignore it and hope it fizzles out and a formal decision is never required. Unfortunately, that may be the best case scenario for UT at this point, given the players involved.

Didn't the LBJ library once show a film where something in your seat would poke you to make you think a rattlesnake is biting you?  Maybe I'm remembering a different place, but I don't want to think about the details of such an attraction at the Trump library.

 

what kind of porn theater were you in ????
