People who mock the decline of universities in the US have no idea how bad it really is. I'm on the inside, and I can tell you the next 20 years will be more wild than you can possibly imagine. The academy is currently peeling away from reality and will be fully detached soon.

A student at my daughter's school who identifies as a wolf (and is thus allowed to wear a wolf mask when nobody else is allowed to wear masks because the school is inclusive) punched the Principal and then punched the cop who showed up. This is how the school described it:

Nearly all were because they were actually trying to vote using a name that was not their actual name.
