I think “we made” unequivocally focuses the story on them and takes away from the what the story is really about, the criminalization of black bodies.

No threats. Point made.

White women repeat statement made by colored people for years...subsequently claim to have discovered a great social truth.

It is actually part of my job to ask real college graduates today. Every semester we send out graduating student surveys to recent grads. We can also request access to the state employment database, so if they’re working in state, we can find out what they’re doing without relying on self-reporting.

It sounds like your kid is going to an expensive private school or paying out of state tuition at a public school.

Pretty sure you don’t need college to dance or create graffiti (which btw, I’d be completely fine with if they disappeared from the earth).

First off—COA includes room and board... which is just another term for “rent” and “food.” Unless the plan is to rely on mom and dad for 4 years, you have to pay those anyways. True, COA also includes books, educational supplies, etc—but the vast bulk of non-tuition COA is just another word for rent and paying for

It doesn’t matter if the debt is a million dollars if they make 2 million a year when they leave (hyperbole obviously). What matters is their debt to income to ratio when they get a job after they graduate.

Considering that on average a college graduate earns close to $1 million more over their lifetime than a non-graduate, it definitely can pay for itself many times over. The caveats are:

There’s nothing wrong with college if people honestly evaluate it as the earning power modification activity that it is. People need to do their homework. Borrowing 31k to make 35k/year is idiotic. Borrowing 31k to make 100k/year is totally reasonable and a debt that a 22 year old making 100k/year could trivially

The internet is not your house. The internet is a common room. If you leave pictures of your dog in the common room and someone says ‘damn that’s an ugly dog’ you have no right to get upset that someone is looking at photos of your dog because even if they didn’t want to see your ugly ass dog, you left it where they

PR firms monitor what is being said about the institution and craft PR responses during times of crisis. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Shady in what way? Looking at publicly available data relevant to your job is shady? Since when?

I’m not defending anyone. I’m pointing out that this article is basically saying:

If you post things for public consumption on the interwebs, don’t be surprised when other people look at those things...

See, this is one time I think the southern white ladies do it better:

Yeah...so dumb of us to want a candidate that people would actually vote for. How stupid of us.

We told your dumb asses back in Jan, Feb and March that ONLY Hillary Clinton gave Donald Trump a chance to win the white house. ONLY Hillary Clinton. No one else.

I’m pretty sure the OP said take it out at any point. Not that they were against late term abortions.

Curious, at what point do you consider it a fetus a human if not viability?
