Actually I didn't even read Earp. I got that from the "not representing" comment. I don't know anything about the school, but that comment made me want to ask for clarification from the start. I just delayed in hope the conversation would get there (and of course it went off on a tangent)

My rant...

/hijack

It seems to me that there is a lot of OUR kids not knowing how to go the college--period...

And it ain't about US not telling them either, because we are. But there is a complete LACK of expectations by adults BEFORE these children get admitted to college/university.

We know most high schools are not preparing OUR students. We understand that. And with the tests to get out of high school, most of OUR students will not have high school diplomas to move on to legally sustainable wages.

I cannot tell you the increased observations of "back talk" I have received from UNIVERSITY STUDENTS piping up at me because of they fail to plan and try to constitute that as my problem.

I do not mind general questioning of the subject matter, but I do have a problem when one fails to read course materials.

But then my dumbassed university sent an email to faculty about how a kid in NorCal wanted to go our Medical School and somehow wanted to visit the school and demanded we pay his assets up here... He hasn't a clue how many kids are trying to get into this Med School... Nada.

So the expectations and logic of most entering college students... I don't know...

The United States will not be competitive in the STEMI fields...

Oh well.

/end hijack

That's the most hijackenest of a hijack that I've ever read.

Is it safe to assume that AKA_Monet is indirectly responding to the A&T LXA dude?

Monet, that is scary.

Maybe someone of you should live in the shoes of this member of LXA and what he is trying to express about the situation that ahs been going on with the school and not belittle or saying how fine a school it may be.

All schools can have problems as it seems to be from this one at the moment.

But to judge what a person has to say who goes there and does have a first hand knowledge, then those that just want to post and make assumptions are in error.

I was a help in keeping this Colony and was very impressed when they got their Charter and the members of it and what they are doing.

So, why be negative when there is a positive in front of us about the expansion of GLOs and relationships among different races?

Let them do their thing without haruanging on them!

If I might add, the three Young I first met were Asian, Afro-American and Caucasian. They did not seem to have a problem with that at all.

Seems some on GC do!

That's wonderfully fantabulous.

I just don't understand it... And "this is OUR selection pool"...

Dude is clueless and he best be careful 'cuz there are plenty of high powered folks who would love to make homie the poster child as to why certain programs must be eliminated... Not saying I agree with this, just saying...

It seems like now even Bay-Bay's thug life for real kids are getting into somebody's Homie's Made-up University... But that's my opinion and you know what folks say about opinions...

*bump*

All of that hoopla in the GC threads and Pike at Howard** is inactive? How long did it last? People need to think long and hard about the sustainability of certain types of organizations before trying to cause such a stir and bring them to the yard. Their fate ends up just as their critics predicted.


**LXA at NC A&T is supposedly still active, correct?

Pikes at Howard. What a clusterfuck that was.

They never chartered and some of their members became Kappas when Xi Chapter came back in 07 and that's a fact. (We discussed that somewhere on here before.)

Just as predicted.

It is always amusing when people make a big storm and say "respect our authoriTIE!" and then drift into obscurity, as folks predicted they would. FAIL.
