Cornell University orientation packet / "privileged" basis
https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=11328

Student ambassadors at Cornell University were given an “orientation packet” ahead of welcoming the incoming freshman class. The packet contains a sheet of categories labeling certain groups as having “privilege” or being “oppressed.”






even the Cornell students who are "marginalized or oppressed" are attending a university where

tuition $ 54,824 per year

rm and board $ 17,365 per year
living costs $ 16,538 per year
books $930 per year

total undergrad yearly cost $ 89,657

4 years $ 358,628

Looks like the standard Libtard credo with one exception. I'm shocked that they considered Jewish as marginalized in category 8 and 12 instead of the usual libtarded view that the Jewish are privileged/oppressors.

Looks like it was put together by the Student Body Union.

They actually put Dine, instead of Native American/aboriginal/Pacific Islander....they're so woke Roll Eyes

Over-weight people aren't listed, I guess they've achieved acceptance Roll Eyes

I think we're categorized as "of size"

I rather doubt that this sort of packet changes attitudes. Attitudes towards others is developed throughout childhood and the teen years.

Now I understand why the undergrad suicide rate at a Cornell is one of the highest in the nation

ANYONE who goes there is more privileged than I am. You know what? I don't care. I don't envy. I just want them to leave me alone........they won't though.

Dine refers only to Navajo. So all other Native Americans must be Privileged. Unless they are included in the "etc.".

As a short, fat, Jewish hetero male I ask that they add another column for the fornicatively challenged. Can I get some free tuition and a cheerleader?

And since when am I marginalized?

I grew up in the 70s and 80s when Communism was the enemy. Pravda was looked upon as hilarious, Communism and Socialism were epitomized by the Yugo, Trabant, and grey concrete.

Now we make Pravda look like the holy grail of truth, honesty and objectivity. I cannot believe anyone tolerates this horseshit - vote with their wallet and feet, get the hell out. But not, pay your $58K to indoctrinate a good little socialist.

We need to take this country back. Obviously Trump's win was one step, but these last few show we have a fight on our hands and better get serious.

Using "Proper English" is privilege, but encouraging people to use "Proper English" is racist.

Being "Slender" is privilege, but encouraging people to "Lose Weight" is sizist.

Being raised by both parents is privilege, but encouraging people to stay together and be responsible parents is judgmental.

Much of what they call privilege is just planning ahead, self control and decision making skills. You know, personal responsibility. The rest is just noise.

Beautiful campus and a beautiful town. It's really sad that if there is one place on the face of the planet more liberal than NYC, it'd be Ithaca. I used to go through the carwash on my way out of town to hopefully wash off all of that slime.

Largest employer in Thompkins County. They got too many proffessing. Most of the studants there just want down on the Commons to drink, smoke and well you know.

There's a lot of stupid people in the world, but to get truly dumb, you have to STUDY. Apparently this is one of the places where this happens - and at ridiculous expense.

There are bright spots in the gloom. My son started the 1st year of grad school towards his PhD. I cautioned him on the liberal tilt there but the full ride, stipend and academic reputation were deciding factors.

He will proudly hang silhouettes in his apartment from trips home to "Free America" and represent the Right in every way. Raised him to do right!

Eh, it's Cornell, they're the redheaded step child of the Ivy League. They're the side piece on a Saturday night when your other plans fall through.
