<p>Gee ucb…I wonder who YOU voted for? LOL. </p>
<p>But I dont want to morph into a political diatribe so I will bite my lip. People talk about term limits in Congress? I would have term limits in college faculties! Fact. Make those ivory tower do nothings get outside the classroom and do something besides community organizing. Real jobs. With accountability. Make it a requirement like five years in and five years out. ;-)</p>
<p>As for USNWR the only news is that the cat is out of the bag across America, and there is no news because this rankings game is really over and people have figured out its a superfluous and superficial and subjective and ridiculous. There are fewer threads on CC about rankings now. years ago it was neurotic and panic stricken people obsessed with rankings and chest beating and it was worse than a bumper sticker. Awful. </p>
<p>Nor should the measure of a college success be the salaries of graduates…I’ve seen ridiculous threads on CC about that as well. Just awful stuff.</p>
<p>However, I am still hopeful that a conservative professor will bring a lawsuit claiming discrimination because the faculty and power brokers (Deans and Department Heads) are all liberals and they routinely discriminate and deny tenure to conservatives. </p>
<p>We need a DOJ investigation and perhaps denying federal funds to institutions which dont have enough conservatives on faculty…we need affirmative action for conservative faculty!</p>
