extorting universities...what other laws does trump and his cronies want to break before they are done?
They should all be locked up.
The end result is just going to be higher tuition and bigger student loan debt. But they can claim a win and the stupid will believe.
Hopefully not too many babies in the bathwater
As iGEM teams filled the floor this year at the Paris convention center, one thing was easy to see.
Janet Standeven: In the United States this year, we have 14 high school iGEM teams. Asia has 120.
Janet Standeven runs iGEM's international high school division. Before this, she taught at Lambert, created its iGEM program and helped it win the grand prize in 2022.
Bill Whitaker: Are you thinking to yourself, "This needs to be in every school?"
Janet Standeven: Yes. Oh. It-- that's been our goal since day one is let's start with Georgia as a little test bid and see what we can do here.
She left Lambert three years ago after securing federal funding to take synthetic biology to high schools all across Georgia. But the Trump administration cut the money, claiming it fell under DEI – diversity, equity and inclusion. A judge temporarily restored the funding, but Standeven told us she's not sure it will extend beyond 2026.
Saw this on 60 minutes last night. We are woefully far behind. Cutting funding and identifying it as DEI doesn't sound surgical.
Yeah, that sucks. And I agree, we should have science competition in every high school in the country. Instead, every one has a football or basketball team. Sad.Hopefully not too many babies in the bathwater

But as for igem, doesn't this sound a little dangerous to you?
iGEM stands for the International Genetically Engineered Machine competition, which is the world's foremost student competition in synthetic biology. Organized by the iGEM Foundation, it involves multidisciplinary teams of students from around the world designing and building biological systems to address real-world problems. These projects use a common registry of standard biological parts and are presented at an annual global competition, or Jamboree.

In other words, fuck the Jews, right?
This place is cesspool. I need a shower.

You have the wrong thread, that clearly belongs under ""Loony" Laura Loomer says GOP has a NAZI problem."

Hardly. It was the right blaming the Jews for space lasers and the right owning Nazi memorabilia after all.
Maybe you should check your own side for antisemitism before tossing unfounded accusations.

Is that thread about Universities run by liberals encouraging, or at best allowing antisemitism running wild on their campuses? Why is Northwestern agreeing to pay $75 million?

Would you pay that to get $700 million?

You know what’s better? Not paying $75 million & getting $700. Why did they pay it?
@bradstevens I mean, sure. But even the American schools in the comp are dominated by Asian and Indian immigrants. we are falling behind.
If they're here and they are citizens and want to be Americans, I don't care where they came from.@bradstevens I mean, sure. But even the American schools in the comp are dominated by Asian and Indian immigrants. we are falling behind.
