The Universities need to reassert their authority but they have no idea how.

Too many years of teaching kids not to respect any authority has come home to roost. The tyranny of the few is here, ruining education for other students, or graduations affected, and the Universities are letting it all happen.

Students don’t own the school…they pay for a service. They make no rules.

And Universities are terrified of doing anything serious about it.

I feel sorry for the kids who want an education.

I saw this while i was in college my class might have been the last to not dictate to professors what was to be taught i got a BA in 2012. Now its a popularity game to get students to stay enrolled at all. Wtf happened.

@jehova I was in college when there was the divestment protests for South Africa and the first intifada. Nothing like this with permanent camps and disruptions.
