BetterToRuleInHell posted:If the withdrawal of subsidies was really due to Obamacare, why does that fall on the university? And how does a university begin to follow up on 'some guy yelled something at me from a car'? If the withdrawal of subsidies was due to Obamacare it was because the insurance was so lovely that it did not qualify as insurance under Obamacare. As for the "some guy yelled something at me from a car" its more that there is a culture of racism and the school's administration taking a bit of a laissez faire attitude about it. The problem is cultural and the only way to change that is to be very strict, vocal and for the administration to get out ahead of the issue. Racism needs to be seen as something shameful, not something you pay some lip service to whenever something gets too much media attention.

GreyjoyBastard posted:Yeah, if this is a tragic repeated failure of messaging, I feel a bit bad for the guy - on the other hand, messaging is a pretty big part of being a university president, so even if we give him the benefit of the doubt on his statements and his clunky bureaucratic responses to endemic racial issues, he still needs to up his game. Is unilaterally decreasing every graduate student's aid package immediately before the semester started just a messaging issue too?

Hulk Krogan posted:I always wondered about this. I mean obviously hearing protection is a no brainer when you're training and what not, but how does it work in an active combat situation? It seems like wearing sufficiently effective hearing protection could cause you to miss stuff you actually need to hear, like someone giving orders. Well according to the documentary tv series Archer tinnitus seems like an impediment to hearing orders. (That kind of hearing damage is 100% a real thing)

Obama, and Clinton as a member of his administration, say "Jihadist Islam" which is confusing to me. If you can say "Jihadist Islam" why not "Radical Islam"? If you're afraid of saying you're at war with Islamic fundamentalist countries like Saudi Arabia or Iran then wouldn't "Jihadist" be as bad as "Radical"?

Shageletic posted:This whole thing is ridiculously useless, but the key difference is that what might be construed from "radical Islam" is that involves "fundamentalist" Muslims, which I suppose might refer to Salafism, the majority of whom (at least their most well-known proponents) tack to a firm non-involvment in political matters. Its a belief system. "Radical Islam" is also kinda meaningless because its in English and you could say it applies to anything. Like Obama could say that we are at war with "Radical Islam" and then praise our Wahhabi allies in Saudi Arabia or something. Its also curious that the people that we'd be concerned about pissing off with "Radical Islam" are those friendliest to the Republican party. Or is that just the Bush family?

It's a lost cause no matter what so why not try for the biggest bang. Ah but the hashtag is "blacklivesmatter " not "blacklivesmattertoo" therefore...

30.5 Days posted:The link I posted says something about departments rejecting candidates. You can quibble about just HOW SMART a 120 IQ is (not smart enough to call someone intelligent unless we're just handing that adjective out), but departments commonly reject candidates who are too intelligent. This is not something hollismason made up, it's something that the departments themselves seem totally fine with. This is something tiny suburban or rural departments do. It's because they know someone that is overqualified for the position will use it to get the training and spend long enough to jump ahead of the off the street line at an urban department. Next they try to get into a detective position, spend the 5 or 10 years there (I forget) that's minimum for FBI special agent hiring, spend 20 years there and retire with a good pension at 50ish.
