    Looks like the campus will ignore the whiners. It’s getting Chick-fil-A.

    OK... I'll play...

    Should Notre Dame students support CFA on their campus if CFA donated to a fund created exclusively to restore T**** to power on 8/13??

    Oh well, I guess they have to accomplish their mission the old fashioned way....

    Send in the insurrectionists...

    Although even in something this simple, you refuse to post a link. The others in the Arizona thread are correct... you are probably the worst poster on PF.com when it comes to documenting (even things you can)....

    He's fighting the wrong battle. The real battle is to remove EVERY SINGLE DIME of federal taxpayer dollars from colleges. College is destroying millions of lives by allowing in low cognitives who earn useless degrees which will not result in meaningful employment for them and saddles them with 100K of lifetime debt.

    We need the number of people getting degrees to drop by about 43%.... this can't happen with the federal government intervening in the market. Only about half of college students benefit economically from the experience, the other half is harmed. That is a major amount of harm inflicted by the federal government. Our federal tax dollars actively spent on harming young people is not a good thing.

    I quoted the OP. Maybe you should have read it before piling on.

    As far as Chick Filet is concerned, if you don't know what has been going on for the last 5 years, I really don't have the inclination to educate you further.

    How have you deduced the cause to be federal funding? The study, which isn't linked, and therefore can't be examined for criteria, includes engineering graduates. Obviously, something other than a "useless degree" is the cause in these cases. Culinary is a huge industry, so those degrees are not useless either. Going by your graphic, I would deduce that the cause is market based (almost everything is market based in our economy.) Too many degrees in fields with too little openings. Has nothing to do with federal funding.

    No student would be forced to support CFA. CFA did not raise money for Trump.

    Chick-fil-A: OpenSecrets shows that groups and people affiliated with Chick-fil-A have donated $79,844 in the 2020 election cycle. The donations went to both Democrats and Republicans, with Trump receiving $8,955 from individuals affiliated with Chick-fil-A. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders received the most of any candidate.

    Is every company to held to some standard because of people "affiliated" exercising the right to free speech? And THAT'S these students beef more money went to Sanders?

    I guess that would depend on how those who make decisions regarding who gets to open a store on campus feels about them.

    Stop Chik-Fil-A? I don't care if it's owned by BLM, Nazis, Marxists, or Silverback, Child Molesters. Until Gay people can make a better Chicken Sandwich for $4, ****. An organization that gave money to an organization that gave money to an organization that hunted gays? Yeah. It's call ISIS. That terrorist state Obama and Biden supported.

    Well, he's still (reportedly) a US Senator.... Last I checked there are still only 100 of em, so yeah, he's important enough...

    But he's certainly now behind Senator's Rosen and Sullivan when it comes to general importance (or impotence, as the case may be)...

    Bummer for Lil' Lindsey....

    attafknon??

    I googled that and this was my first result...

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_on_Titan

    Not sure what that has to do with anything...

    Nobody is threatening CFA's right to free speech... they will retain the right to lose customers daily with their antiquated thinking...

    So all businesses wanting to sell their products on a campus must first submit to a questionnaire about people affiliated with company and their political persuasions and can be banned on that? And in particular at this school ban any that adhere to the religious teachings of this religious school?

    Lindsey Graham is a clown. In a more just world he would be driving a mule team rather than one of the most powerful people in world.

    But this is about people "affiliated" too. Will the school publish a list of the organizations and causes which are "approved" or is it strictly ad hoc.

    Wonder what the Pope thinks about it.

    Oh, I see where you went wrong.... when you assumed a US Senator saying he'd go to war over Chicken Nuggets was serious...

    I myself take little seriously anything the GQP says anymore... It's a joke party led by deficient people..
