Snowflakes at Rutgers hold forum in solidarity after speaker's visit
2016-02-20
[DAILYTARGUM] "We are here to show support," was repeated by nearly every person in the crowd as they introduced themselves at a forum to discuss Milo Yiannopoulos's visit to Rutgers last week.

Students and faculty gathered in the Paul Robeson Cultural Center on Busch campus to generate dialogue about Yiannopoulos's visit and the protest that occurred during his lecture. A variety of different organizations and departments were present to listen, answer questions and show support.

Students described feeling scared, hurt and discriminated against following Yiannopoulos's visit.

James was scared to walk around campus the next day. Many others agreed and said they felt unsafe at the event and around campus afterward.

Representatives from the RUPD said that if a student feels threatened, the first step they should take is to call them.

#12  HR departments probably suck them up like a vacuume, especially in large multinationals...

#11  @#10: More University/College employees = bigger payroll and benefits nuts = higher tuitions. There was a time the students could figure this out, but no more. And I doubt Bernie will mention it.

#10  The only jobs available are untenured associate positions at the university. Why do you think one of the main demands is expansion of their programs and mandatory indoctrination classes for the student body? /rhetorical question

#7  are these kids parents aware of what they are paying for?

Entry fee for upper/middle class.

They might find it is worth $60K per annum to get rid of a dysfunctional brat for 4 years. In most states, after a certain age, you can no longer drown them in a well.

Amusing that the students are having brainal spasms after listening to a talk by a gay guy. Tune in next week for a new episode of When Memes Collide.

#3  When reality finally chews through the bubble to get at these kids, their lives are going to be miserable.

#2  Probably, big time helicopter parents who've kept the real world at an arms distance. When the bubble pops, their ability to 'adapt' will be minimal if none existent.
