My wife just informed me that Columbia University Law school has brought in grief counceler's to deal with their law students confusion over the grand jury not inditing in the Staten Island case. They are even letting them put off taking their final examinations.

Columbia university the leader in creating communists like my daughter here in the United States.

The NY Post headlines captures it best...... POOR BABIES!

Here is the article footread in todays NY papers

"They’re a long way from being hard-nosed litigators.
A group of Columbia University law students demanded the school postpone their finals because of their “trauma” over the Eric Garner and Michael Brown grand jury decisions.
And the bleeding-heart higher-ups bought it.
In an email to the entire school, Interim Dean Robert Scott said the decisions “have shaken the faith of some in the integrity of the grand-jury system and in the law more generally.”
Scott said “students who feel that their performance on examinations will be sufficiently impaired due to the effects of these recent events” could apply to have their tests rescheduled."

Jesus Christ. What a joke. Where was their grief after 9/11? And where was the grief at Columbia when they gave a platform to that scumbag Mahmoud Ahmadinejad back in 2007?

These kids are in for a rude awakening. But it's not even their fault. The faculty and the tenured professors, and just about everyone else working in academia at the university level, are so fucking detached and sheltered from the real world, that it's not even worth discussing. And when you have access to 18 year old minds you can turn these kids into whatever you want. They're doomed.

If I knew what I know now then, I would not have sent my daughter to Columbia.

I constantly get mail from them asking me to donate money to the school.

It's not your fault. Columbia has always been a liberal campus, even by university standards. But since 9/11 they've gone completely off the rails.

I can't believe what going on at Columbia university, it's disturbing, can't they deal with real life? ive always thought that the univ of calif at Berkley was the most liberal institution in the country, when you pass Berkley for being liberal, you're no longer Columbia, but, the peoples republic of new York.

Yeah, Berkeley's just Columbia in a better neighborhood with better weather. Same sickening ideology, though.

Pb check pm please.

Yes I was following the shuffle inside the car for Ferguson. This Staten Island is caught on tape and still nothing. Berkeley is not liberal anymore, it is fascism.

That's about right.

The Columbia thing was fuckin bogus but they can't be any worse than the other pinko lefty schools like Harvard and Yale. Funny how those schools used to stand for a good, solid education and a step up in life now all it is, is liberal indoctrination, affirmative action, and a system that doesn't allow for any other point of view except their own.

I hate their educated attitudes, " we are smarter than you. we know what's good for you" all those young yuppies need a dose of reality.

We all know the ticket to success is being a well rounded and educated individual. There are many on this board who have busted their asses to achieve great things because of it.

The problem begins when you believe because you got that law degree from Harvard it's a license to look down on everyone else, including those who may not have a lick of college experience but can still do well for themselves in other fields. It becomes a bigger problem when ideology mixes with that snobbery. Because then its no longer about education, its about indoctrination and arrogance.

exactly. great post. expresses my feelings to a t.

Typical liberal thinking - completely removed from reality. Between them getting their "education" from colleges like Columbia and their "news" from liberal hacks like Jon Stewart, what hope is there for the rising generation?
