#6  "Boot camp for the revolution" was how one student described Antioch to me.

There's not much of a market for communists revolutionaries. Darwin Principle in action.

#4  For the last four years, at least, when my colleges call for alumni donations (which I used to make regularly), I check my list of PC idiocies they perpetrated the preceding year and tell them "no", and why. Instead I pick a school that has done something 'right' and send them an unsolicited donation (and tell them why.) It feels good, and I highly recommend the practice. Maybe eventually even moronic Ph.D.'s (I are one) like those running the colleges will figure it out.

#1  It's really sad to see such a venerable and unique institution closing . . . I mean, it must be sad when something so dear to the hearts of many fails . . . aw, to hell with politeness: LOOOSERS! WELCOME TO CHAPTER 7 BANKRUPTCY, YOU LONG-HAIRED FREAKY PEOPLE! HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Sorry. Couldn't control myself there.
