u/throwAwayObama you have to explain to us how a degree from evergreen is worth anything now, a retard could have gotten into that school before. Now places which might have hired said retards will look at your evergreen degree, think back at how retarded you all are and think hiring retards from your university would be super retarded. They will then pitch your resume in the trash because that's what your degree from that university is.
Aren't they worried about what they're gonna do after college? Does this mean that I'm the paranoid one for worrying so much?? How good is the job market that they can waste time on stupid shit like this????
And what purpose do they have for a women's studies major? I figured they all work as baristas. I guess HR which is a shame because HR should require actual education.
How good is the job market that they can waste time on stupid shit like this?
It's the opposite, really. There aren't even remotely enough decent jobs to go around, so most of us already know we're fucked and will end up in some shitty McJob. People on reddit say 'get a STEM degree!', but there aren't enough STEM jobs, either.
The job market is shit almost everywhere outside of Texas in the US.
Hey, come on now, you're being really cruel and there's no need to be a jerk. Retards are frequently dedicated and loyal employees and can be very high functioning within the scope of their disability. Comparing them to the worthless sociopaths at Evergreen is insulting and unnecessary.
The difference between 'black power' and 'white power' as slogans based on their historical context and what they are used for is an easy concept to explain. I don't even know why you continuously dodge the question when you can answer it easily. Even just giving a broad answer can give someone a jumping point they can use begin their own research.
You are supposed to be doing a Q and A and instead choose to continuously dodge the question in a pretentious manner. It's not a difficult concept to understand and it's not a difficult concept to explain. Don't do a QandA if you are incapable or unwilling to answer questions. You just make the side you are supposedly representing look even more foolish.
You say other people are miss-characterizing what the protesters are doing and saying and yet you sit there unwilling to explain your points when you are presented with a platform.
I think here it was more "I don't have a real response to that question." and by reading his other responses, the bar was pretty low for him to rub two neurons together and embarrass himself
I hope someday that line goes the way of "come on guys it's [current_year]", and becomes so widely ridiculed that people feel as stupid as they should for using it.
I would've assumed the giant hivemind of racist retards flipping shit on video would've been the cause. Oh sorry, I forgot you can't be racist against whites. So just standard retards.
it is a huge mischaracterization to call our invite a 'group encouraging another group to go away', ' forceful call to consciousness', ' show of force, and an act of oppression in and of itself.', and 'encourage a similar stance by white people being asked to stay away'
What he seemed to miss (whether intentionally to make his point or because he really doesn't get it) is that people of color have been experiencing implicit and explicit racism at Evergreen and in the greater area for many years.
Even supposing this is true, it is completely and utterly irrelevant. It doesn't bear on the question of the perceived "culture war between... enlightenment values... [and] postmodernism", and the idea that it would is exactly the kind of postmodernist bullshit he's arguing against.
Bret saw a suggestion to a group of people to show solidarity by not being present, and interpreted this as "a group encouraging another group to go away". Which it objectively is.
(explicit example: two years ago we had white supremacists patrolling the downtown area threatening people of color and the LGBTQ community while carrying openly)
Local news coverage or I don't believe you (and possibly not even then, given this is Olympia we're talking about).
POC only meetings occurred at Evergreen on a weekly basis when I was there, and he never objected to them, which he should have if he has such an issue with the idea of segregation.
You fundamentally misunderstand. A group that segregates itself is exercising a right to peaceful assembly. A group that expects action on the part of others to achieve segregation is violating norms of civility, as well as going back on the freedoms that activists fought for in the 60s. If you and your friends all decide you want to use a certain water fountain, that's fine; it's when you put up a sign that we have a problem.
Folks organizing DoA this year wanted to switch the venues up
You cannot "switch the venues up", because there is one (1) venue in question: the campus. When you have participants take a bus "off location", it isn't relevant where they actually go.
I've said this before and I'll say it again. I once broke down the tuition as a per class expense and my classes cost somewhere around the neighborhood of 38 dollars per class if it was a 3 day a week class.
If it was a day in which I had four classes, these fuckers would have been inviting me to give them $152 to set on fire. Anyone who encourages me to skip classes can go fuck themselves.
/u/throwAwayObama, are you ashamed you're wasting your parents' money intimidating white people and closing the campus instead of getting an education?

Wikipedia says Evergreen provides "narrative evaluations of students' work in place of issuing grades."
Lol, a degree from there was already worthless. This just publicises that fact.
n/a TheJum 2017-06-01
It's going to be so much worse in a year or two.
Because anyone who wanted to go there just because of something like distance or an odd competent department is going to be too embarrassed to attend.
So the only people showing up are going to be the ones coming to join the "warfront against institutional racism, sexism, transphobia, etc.
