SHORT TAKES ON THE DRIFTING WRECKAGE – OVERNIGHT:

WELCOME TO THE IVY LEAGUE – FROM PJ MEDIA:   Some Yale law students are calling for the “unrelenting daily ostracization” of people who disagree with them on abortion — as if they don’t ostracize them already anyway. But in addition to giving conservative students migraines because of their constant caterwauling, the frothing radicals want to toss the Constitution too.  They don’t say what we should replace it with. Because that would require actual thought — something the radicals are unfamiliar with. They do a great job emoting and wailing and gnashing their teeth, but when it comes to thinking, it’s as mysterious as Oak Island.  A first-year law student, Shyamala Ramakrishna, is beside herself with grief and paranoid fear about “conspirators in the Christo-fascist political takeover we all seem to be posting frantically about.” She means those mild-mannered lawyer types in the campus Federalist Society. Yale Federalists may be upper-class twits, but “Christo-fascists”? Really now.  Would I be going to far to suggest that we have a maturity crisis in American education?  I think I'm right on.  Whole schools are being destroyed, and professions twisted.  See just below.

DO PATIENTS COUNT ANY LONGER? – FROM FOX:   At least 39 of America’s 50 most prestigious medical colleges and universities have some form of mandatory student training or coursework on ideas related to critical race theory (CRT), according to CriticalRace.org, which monitors CRT curricula and training in higher education.  Earlier this year, CriticalRace.org found that CRT was prevalent in medical schools across the country. The project from Legal Insurrection Foundation, a non-profit devoted to campus free speech and academic freedom, has since expanded its database and found even more elite medical schools are focusing on "racialization" of medicine.  "The national alarm should be sounding over the racialization of medical school education. The swiftness and depth to which race-focused social justice education has penetrated medical schools reflects the broader disturbing trends in higher education," Legal Insurrection founder William A. Jacobson told Fox News Digital.  I wonder what's been taken out of the med school curriculum to allow time for this stuff.  Who will live and who will die?
