And they should be applauded for it. What DePaul did was craven. It was done out of fear of uncomfortable protests on campus and of possibly driving away applicants.

It’s the usual condescending attitude toward veterans that view them as ones who went in as duped little boys and came out as broken men who hit the floor when they hear loud noises.

You forgot, “And if you don’t want to read it and be responsible for knowing the material, no problem!”

In effect yes. When you shout or whistle down a speaker, you are preventing them from speaking.

Oh come on. Demands for trigger warnings have gone way beyond protecting people from being forced to “relive their traumas” to sheltering them from anything they disagree with. The definition of trauma has been broadened to include discomfort, and if you can’t handle intellectual discomfort, you shouldn’t be on a…

“But the idea of students breaking off and forming “safe” spaces based on, say, shared identities as minorities, is fine.”

I am so sick of smug people on Gawker sites who always seem just a little too pleased to point out when the First Amendment “doesn’t apply” or who cite the tired wheeze of “freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom from consequences.” And here these comments rose up from a vacuum.

The St. Olaf library is named after Ole Rolvaag, who is up there with Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and Melville on campus.

I can only assume he wrote this as it were a viable strategy because he is used to playing with little kids who don’t know that the name of the game is to buy everything possible, not “save your money.”

This is correct in regard to which properties have the best yield, but is of little value as a guide to “strategy” unless you are playing with people dumb enough not to buy every unowned property they land on. Buying every entity you can is the foundation strategy. You buy houses and hotels as aggressively as…

Felix “lost on a dive” because the other runner was faster.

840 calories for an active kid is nothing to get agitated about. But, oh, wait, 840 is an exaggeration for most Happy Meals.

“Christian said that car often required more than $1,000 per month to maintain.”
