I think you’re making this comment from a well intentioned, but not-very-informed place. I work on a campus. One situation I’ve seen is when a student needs to switch out of a required class to get away from a rapist, but the only other session of the course is during another of the victim’s required courses. But the…

Universities do not “conduct a trial,” they hold hearings to see whether a student has violated the student code of conduct. This has nothing to do with criminal charges (which a student can still pursue in parallel to reporting the incident to the university).

And that detail is what still gets me. How did Sabrina AND her editors think that they could publish this story without talking to anyone else but Jackie and the woman who connected her to Jackie? I mean...Sabrina didn’t even bother to verify that the guy existed FFS! That’s something a layperson could have done in…

What if some of their “activities” included part-time jobs or non-school related extracurriculars? What if they had experienced and overcome some sort of hardship or challenge (loss of a parent? childhood health problems?economic hardships? immigration? homelessness?) of which she has no idea? Ugh. She’s the worst and…

I would be interested to know how many people in her class were actually people of color - as Jia notes, most public schools (and not only in Texas) are still effectively segregated.

I latched onto that statement, too, for different reasons. Did she and the Fair Representation Project do some sort of research into the students (I know that they looked at their test scores and grades)? How does she know that the students who got admitted did fewer activities than she did? What does she know about…

How is this surprising? She has a British identical twin!!!

For me, the Sansa is preggars truthers seem to all be hedging their bets based on what Ramsey said to her, combined with her comments about still feeling him. When in reality, any woman who has been assaulted (ESPECIALLY to the degree Sansa has alluded) knows that doesn’t mean the reason for still feeling it is bc of…

Does it honestly not bother you that Bernie supporters are sending death threats to a woman who, as far as I can tell, was just doing her job? I get wanting to have positive coverage of your preferred candidate, but any coverage of the event that leaves out the booing and death threats is still pretty slanted - it’s…

Also, Clinton won the NV primary election. Nothing was being stolen from these people. Blame the Sanders ground game for not having its delegates be prepared and follow the rules.

“Who are you talking to?” and older woman’s voice shouted worriedly from the background.
