Any other alums who think their school has gone off the deep end?

| It's hard to criticize the ND students for turning their back on Pence when Pence flew to Indiana at our expense for an obvious political stunt where he walked out of a game in the opening minutes because some players kneeled during the anthem. He's far more of a one-dimensional political tool than the students. |

Stanford, UCSF, UCLA, Caltech are still top of the game. |

Did you see this about Stanford's political demographics? https://www.stanforddaily.com/2016/11/04/undergraduates-strongly-favor-clinton-but-vary-more-in-political-ideology/ Stanford is overwhelmingly liberal, and there's a perception by the students themselves that it is. Furthermore, 55.1% believe other students cannot freely express their opinions, while 16.2% (likely the conservative/libertarian side) believe they themselves cannot freely express their opinions. Stanford has this rose-colored image by conservatives because of their Hoover Institute, but it's really not some thriving community for political diversity. The same goes for UChicago, another school commonly seen as open and accepting towards conservative viewpoints. I follow UChicago's social media class pages- have a child attending there- and there have been several posters shut down for being "anti-black", homophobic, etc. |

Lol you need to be rotten to the core to think Pence is a fine man. I am sorry for you. |

We're still waiting for an explanation about what, in particular, he did to make him as evil or whatever you think he is. |

A close friend had a daughter who just graduated from Stanford. She (white) said she would never do it again. Everything her daughter was taught in and out of class was Black Lives Matter and that she, the daughter, should be ashamed of her white privilege. It permeated every class and every activity. The mother and father (both alums) said their daughter graduated a shell of her former self, thinking she should be ashamed of herself because she was white. She now lacks self-confidence, has self-doubt, and is engaging in self-destructive behaviors. She got into Stanford Law but the parents are sending her to a different law school with less of a SJW agenda. |

| I'm a Scripps alum and no longer give money. Too many speakers were shouted down at all the Claremont campuses in the past few years. When other points of view are allowed to be heard, I may reconsider, but not now. |

His opposition to abortion is a virtual obsession: He pushed Indiana’s new law, stayed by a federal judge, which bans abortion for disabled fetuses and requires women who’ve had abortions or miscarriages, no matter how early, to arrange for either burial or cremation of the remains. Pence co-sponsored Todd Akin’s infamous anti-abortion bill that would have redefined rape as “forcible rape.” (It would have allowed hospitals to deny abortions to pregnant women who would die without the care — and the only exception would have been cases of “forcible” rape.) In a letter to the editor of Indianapolis Star, Pence argued that households with two working parents are under a spell of "the big lie that 'Mom doesn't matter.'" This expert asserted that having both parents work would lead to “stunted emotional growth” in their children. As governor, Pence signed a contract to take $3.5 million from the state’s Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, which provides aid to low-income families, and gave it to the Pennsylvania-based anti-abortion group “Real Alternatives,” that lies to women to “actively promote childbirth instead of abortion.” The contract is clear: It says reps from the anti-abortion group should spread its message to pregnancy centers, as well as adoption and social services agencies, "so more women can be served and fewer abortions chosen." Pence was an up-and-coming politico who accepted campaign donations from big tobacco. He also wrote a short, incendiary op-ed titled "The Great American Smoke Out," which insisted that "smoking doesn't kill," while conceding that it is "not good for you." Here's the key excerpt: "Time for a quick reality check. Despite the hysteria from the political class and the media, smoking doesn't kill. In fact, 2 out of every three smokers does not die from a smoking related illness and 9 out of ten smokers do not contract lung cancer." In 2002 Pence said that “...condoms are a very, very poor protection against sexually transmitted diseases,” and using condoms as a solution to STDs was “too modern.” As governor, Pence signed a law to legalize discrimination against LGBTQ people: The “religious freedom” law gave businesses the green light to discriminate against LGBTQ people on religious grounds. The law was criticized around the country: High-profile groups withdrew events from the state in protest, and businesses like Apple and Marriott condemned the law. Pence “revised” the law, but the controversy still cost the state at least $60 million. In 2011, he led the fight to shut down the government over funding for Planned Parenthood, and as governor he cut Planned Parenthood funding in half from 2005 levels; that resulted in the closing of five non-abortion clinics that provided STD testing, and that helped fuel a rise in HIV infections so staggering it required federal intervention. |

Yep, the man who admits he is utterly incapable of controlling himself around a woman if he's alone with her is a very fine man indeed. |
