That's not a real option. It's about as real as saying one option is for liberals to start moving en masse to red states to change the vote there. In fact, that is probably more realistic. The notion that getting a small group of elite students to boycott a handful of schools will change anything is delusional. Sorry, but that's the truth.
Here’s the thing: southern schools have become very popular in recent years. Droves of kids from the east coast are flocking down to southern schools.
I think it’s because even liberals are more moderate than you realize.
There’s a backlash, and we Dems need to recognize it and take action.
The residency requirements to vote can be an issue for college students. Residency requirements also protect the likes of UMich and UVA from OOS paying in-state tuition.
We're going to sign them all up to vote locally and torpedo your red enclaves. In fact i will start a scholarship fund for anyone who attends a university in a red county and agrees to vote Democrat.

Kudos to the SCOTUS on this. Always should have been up to the states.
But why exactly? I'm just looking for the rationale why it should be a state decision and not a federal one. I can't have children anymore so just curious for the next generation.
There is no Constitutional right to an abortion. The Constitution enshrines a very small number of fundamental enumerated and unenumerated rights. It doesn’t protect everything that’s good.
In the midst of a massive social and political fight over abortion, Roe and Casey created an obvious fiction: a Constitutional right to “privacy” that included a right to abortion. This removed the issue from the usual political process, and did irreparable damage to the Court and the country. Suddenly the Court was a 100% political institution.
Today’s decision delivers the issue back to the political process, where it always should have been. I am basically pro choice. I also recognize that someone isn’t crazy, or a bigot or a woman hater, if they really feel like aborting a fetus (particularly one that is viable, can feel pain, etc.) is murder or something close to it. It’s a complicated issue. There is going to have to be a compromise that leaves both sides unhappy. And the debate will continue, people will make arguments, mobilize votes. That’s what’s supposed to happen on hotly contested policy questions in a democracy.
So basically the constitution didn't and still doesn't consider having an abortion ending a life? The constitution enshrines life as far as I know. Life, Liberty, and Pursuit of Happiness.
No idea what your post is even trying to articulate. But the Constitution is different from the Declaration of Independence.
This kind of demonstrates the point though. This illiterate PP is free to have an opinion about abortion rights. But trying to support that opinion in the context of Constitutional law is a joke. You people have no clue what you’re talking about.

I started a thread on this after the leak. Truly, pro choice boomers (being retired and having an empty nest means easier moving and frequently more money with which to do so) should do this.

There are plenty of college educated professional women who are pro choice and will be happy to take those jobs. They’ll also be taxed less for every dollar they earn.
U mad bro?
I know so so so many highly educated pro-life women.
Until they have an unplanned pregnancy.
What are those UMC Republican women in Oklahoma and Texas going to do when their 17-year old daughter announces that her thug, loser boyfriend just got her pregnant and wants nothing to do with the baby?
They'll get her an abortion like privileged parents have always done.
+1000
They will take a "sightseeing trip" to California or DC. Come on, y'all. People of means always have and always will have access to safe, medical abortions.
They will travel to Illinois, which will be the only abortion rights and women's health mecca in the middle of a vast sea of red. They already do. The blue states will want to do all they can to help, but the demand will outstrip the availability within short order.

I don’t have much to give, but if you start this, I will donate.
