CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY MARCH 19, 2024
CORNELL UNIVERSITY IN NEW YORK USED TO BE CONSIDERED ONE OF THE ELITE UNIVERSITIES IN THE COUNTRY. THAT STATUS EVAPORATED SOME TIME AGO BUT HAS RECENTLY GOTTEN EVEN WORSE.
THE NEW YORK POST REPORTS A GROUP COMBATING ANTISEMITISM HAS MAILED A BROCHURE TO ALL HIGH SCHOOLS IN THE NEW YORK METROPOLITAN AREA URGING THEM TO DISCOURAGE JEWISH STUDENTS FROM APPLYING TO CORNELL.
THE GROUP SAYS, “CORNELL IS NOT A SAFE PLACE FOR JEWISH STUDENTS.”
IF A SOUTHERN UNIVERSITY WAS FOUND TO BE UNSAFE FOR BLACK STUDENTS, OR GAY STUDENTS. DO YOU THINK THIS WOULD BE TOLERATED? TROOPS WOULD PROBABLY BE SENT IN TO DEFEND THOSE STUDENTS.
CORNELL IS MAKING THE WRONG SIDE PAY. INSTEAD OF WARNING JEWISH STUDENTS NOT TO APPLY FOR ADMISSION, THEY SHOULD BE EXPELLING ANY STUDENT WHO DISPLAYS ANTISEMITIC ATTITUDES AND ACTIONS, LIKE CHASING AFTER THEM, CALLING THEM NAMES AND CARRYING SIGNS THAT SAY, “FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA.”
A COLLEGE EDUCATION WAS ONCE A GOAL TO BE ADMIRED AND A DIPLOMA HAD VALUE. NOW, THE WOKE UNIVERSITIES TEACH THINGS NOT WORTH KNOWING THAT DOES LITTLE TO QUALIFY A GRADUATE FOR A JOB, MUCH LESS A CAREER.
THE BEST APPROACH? DON’T SEND THESE SCHOOLS THE RAW MATERIAL, NAMELY YOUR CHILDREN. I’M CAL THOMAS.
