Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Does the University of Missouri have a death wish?

My boss is a diehard Missouri fan, with an engineering degree from there. Travels there from several states away to go to games each year. He is disgusted and said no more money going there in the way of ticket purchases or alumni donations for him.

The libs in charge at Mizzou have clearly drunk the kool-aid, big time.

They will fail to see the cause-effect relationship between their batschit-crazy actions and the decline in enrollment, alumni contributions, etc., and will blame the school's financial crisis on "racist white folks". There is no reasoning with these communist idiots.

This:

I'd be really pi$$3d that a school like that got one cent of my tax dollars. Everyone in Missouri should call their reps, repeatedly.

"Does the University of Missouri have a death wish?"

I hope so. If we stop co-signing student loans we can sit back and watch a bunch of them die. The good ones will live.

Liberalism always self destructs if given enough rein. Sometimes I wonder why we don't let them get what they want more often.

For basketball to give Kentucky someone to deal with. Problem is Mizzou has stunk at basketball for more than 5 years.

I hope the KSU wildcats are not headed down this path.

All of academia needs to be 'purged'!!

This!

Grand daughter who came from a Republican family attended and received her teaching certificate from MU. Went in as a strong conservative and came out a very weak one. Picked up a Liberal boyfriend in the deal.

I told her prior to entry in MU that her leanings would take a left turn due to the Liberal contaminated teacher factor. St Louis, Kansas City & Columbia (MU)largest Liberal strongholds in the state.

Degree from their hasn't been viewed very highly for several years. GW

Oklahoma State is an exception to this trend.

Mizzou has a tremendous problem with perception. Because the liberal mainstream media love anything to do with an allegation of racism, they blow things far out of proportion. The fact is that a SMALL contingent of very vocal liberal faculty and students make a disproportionate amount of noise, and the press is all over it. In actuality, the student body at Mizzou is far more conservative than at most schools, certainly more than any of the Big Ten schools, including the one I attended..

My daughter will receive her Masters from Mizzou in a few weeks, and I've spent a great deal of the at that University over the last five years. The vast majority of the student body is as disgusted as the rest of us at the antics of a few liberal blowhards. Surprisingly, many (obviously, not all) of the faculty are similarly disgusted by what is going on.

Mizzou's freshman enrollment is down by 6% for next year, not 25%, and part of the reason the two dorms closed is because a new one opened.

Rather than excoriating an outstanding school and most of those who attend there, look at what is really going on, and support the overwhelming number of normal folks who are there against the small minority of vocal whiners.

By the way, my daughter, who went in as a moderate conservative, is coming out as a strong conservative. Her boyfriend, who is from Chicago, also leans conservative. There is hope!

The seeds of this "perfect storm" of a train wreck weren't planted yesterday...

Strong leadership must be lacking at Mizzou.

Just looking at it from the outside...
