UPDATE: Evergreen State College Protesters Are Now Exempt From Doing Homework
We all know that feeling of passing a massive car wreck on the side of the road. You know if you look, you’re not going to like what you see. However, for whatever reason, you can’t help but look. Something about human nature just makes it tough to turn away from a grisly, depressing scene. That brings us to the slow-mo car wreck that is Evergreen State College.
Yesterday, we first wrote about the protests taking place at the small liberal arts college in the Pacific Northwest. Today, there’s a small but significant update: NO HOMEWORK!!!!
Protester: “All of us are students and have homework and projects and things due. Have you sent an email out to our faculty letting them know? What’s been done with that? We’re all here on our own time.”
Evergreen’s president George Bridges: “That is the first thing I’ll do,” replied Bridges. “I have not done it yet. I’ll do it right now.”
Protester: “So they need to be told that these assignments won’t be done on time. And we don’t need to be penalized for that.”
You’re getting a degree from a small liberal arts school in, I assume, race or gender studies, and it’s now widely publicized that the school doesn’t require you to do homework if you protest loud enough. Yep, that degree should take you straight to the top of a Fortune 500 company.
Just kidding! It’ll probably have equal or lesser value to a Trump University degree. Oh shit. Did I just cross party lines with that joke? I did. I like to keep things 100 around here. Keeps everyone on their toes.
See, college is just as much about maintaining a strict, positive schedule as it is about studying, so it’s best to get your homework and readings in before your daily protest at 3 p.m. No one knows how late into the night those protests are gonna go! It better not interfere with my 6 p.m. “So You Think You’re Triggered?” TedTalk, though.
I still can’t tell if I’m looking forward to seeing how this one plays out over the summer or not. After all, Titanic was both a tragic story and a box office hit. Sometimes you’ve got to sink the ship to get results, and it appears this ship is taking on water pretty damn fast..

you’d think they’d want to go to school and do homework so they can lift themselves up despite hardships. people only recognize your value and feel it in your absence if you had value in the first place. as Christ rock once said, y’all a bunch of naggers not black people.

8 years ago at 12:11 pmhahaha, you win some you lose some.
8 years ago at 12:13 pmWhy do the dumbest people have the loudest voices?
8 years ago at 12:04 pmI think it’s because we give these dumbasses attention, every loud and proud liberal I know always craves validation
8 years ago at 12:33 pmTheir voices echo and magnify in the empty space their brains should be in.
8 years ago at 7:05 pmWhat a stupid stupid time to be alive.
8 years ago at 12:09 pmEvergreen college has a 98 percent acceptance rate…just imagine how bad you’d have to be to be part of the 2 percent rejected

8 years ago at 3:40 pmI found a great site that focuses on stay at home mom’s complete guide to gaining a serious amount of money in very little time. While being able to earn an passive income staying home with your kids. If you are someone who needs more money and has some spare time, this site is perfect for you. Take a look at…

8 years ago at 9:11 am^ this. Took the words right outta my mouth.
8 years ago at 2:44 pmLet them dig their own professional graves
8 years ago at 12:11 pmFurther exacerbating the problem
8 years ago at 12:14 pmCan they just be exempt from life?
8 years ago at 12:18 pmRealistically this better trains them for their professional life which will be not working and collecting welfare checks anyways
8 years ago at 12:23 pmImagine how stinky that room mustve smelled
8 years ago at 9:22 amShortcuts in life end at the interview table. They’ve dug their own graves. More jobs for the worthy.
8 years ago at 12:37 pmKind of funny how everyone on this site who has a business degree from any semi respectable college thinks they are going to be making 7 figures when in reality most of you will end up making 60k per year in a cubicle or end up working for me.
8 years ago at 12:43 pmEnjoy your cubicle little man.

8 years ago at 2:11 pmNot the point junior but nice try.
8 years ago at 3:40 pmHigh end sales jobs like pharmaceutical/Medical device
8 years ago at 7:07 pmNo but you don’t work in a fucking cubicle. You meet people places, go to hospitals, etc.
8 years ago at 7:51 pmMy dad is a sales manager in medical device sales, he even told me you don’t work in a cubicle. So go ahead and argue that kid
8 years ago at 7:55 pmFuck your dad.
8 years ago at 8:39 pmOk cool dude. You get everything off your little chest of yours?
8 years ago at 11:35 pmIf your dad is still keeping his stuff in a “file locker” then you might want to clue him in to Salesforce and let him join the modern world.
8 years ago at 6:17 amNigga I don’t know what the fuck it’s called. But it’s just a place to put your files. You don’t have your own cubicle for that. That would make absolutely no sense. And most of the time you just make a digital copy of it and put it on your computer. And if you need it, you print it. Use your head every once in a while
8 years ago at 7:34 amBefore you make an even larger ass out of yourself, why don’t you google Salesforce.com so you can at least think about maybe speaking halfway intelligently on a subject about which you obviously know nothing.
8 years ago at 8:37 amMost businesses have a file locker that you have access to to store your leads, documents etc IF you are working out of a business. However, 99% of sales jobs, (at least with medical sales) people work out of their own home, and in fact, never go to their HQ. So then you store it at you home, therefore, no cubicle.
8 years ago at 10:18 pmI’m high as fuck and even realized this. You sir, are a dumbass.

8 years ago at 7:31 pmMy admin’s starting salary was 60k. Set your sights higher, dude.
8 years ago at 1:04 pmWorking for you? Didn’t realize glory hole operators at the local truck stop hired understudies.
8 years ago at 3:28 pmNot quite little man. It’s ok though we need plenty of zombies in the corporate world to make sure the needs of the big dogs like myself are met.
8 years ago at 3:35 pmDidn’t my boy Dr. Ramos do your gender reassignment surgery last week?
8 years ago at 4:16 pmNot quite squirt. I’ll happily knock you the fuck out though if that’s something you would be interested in.
8 years ago at 4:33 pmMost people with a career worth anything wouldn’t risk it to assault a guy over an internet comment.
8 years ago at 6:00 pmI’m tempted to take your challenge just to see what the textbook example of “asshole” looks like.
8 years ago at 9:33 pmYeah but let’s be honest. You are far too much of a pussy to do anything so go ahead and sit the fuck down before you get hurt
8 years ago at 11:23 pmYou are one of two things. A; a young or aspiring professional who is putting the cart before the horse and doesn’t understand he’ll need to put his nose to the grindstone for a long time before becoming a “big dog” ie, corporate pledging. B; an actual big dog who would probably be at least 40 getting in online fights with kids in their 20s.
8 years ago at 4:42 pmYeah but the rules are a little different when your father is a high level executive for one of the largest hospitality and restaurant brands in the world and you already have a six figure job waiting for you the moment you graduate
8 years ago at 7:51 pmSo you’re a silver spoon ass hole who doesn’t have to work hard. I don’t hate you for it, that’s life. But silver spoon ass holes who act like they’re better than others (in the way you’re doing it) should kinda shut up.
8 years ago at 7:59 pmAmazing grammar there, Vaginator. Maybe you should focus on your pre-reqs before you get too ahead of yourself.
8 years ago at 11:32 pmMaybe you should focus on losing your virginity before you turn 25
8 years ago at 12:29 amMost will end up working for you? What the fuck kind of omnipresent organization do you work at?
8 years ago at 4:46 pmMy dad has a similar paying job that could be passed on to me, and he told me: sorry champ but I’m working this job till you put me in a retirement home or the ground. Better get your shit together cause I’m not doing it for you. Two types of people… two types of people
8 years ago at 11:21 pmYeah pussies like you who don’t have the balls or skills to make it to the top and people like me who have it in their blood.
8 years ago at 12:28 amI got fired from a company that my dad owned. Thats when i found out i was a piece of shit
8 years ago at 7:03 amLiberal arts school with a 99% acceptance rate. They’re already exempt from ever getting even a subpar job anyways, might as well not do homework while their at it.
