@@theoneafterthelastThat actually is protected speech. In order for speech to be illegal, it must cause imminent danger. Maybe you are the one whose dense? And there is nothing racist about that definition. It's merely trying to educate students that not all jewish people are white. Not all Hindus are Indian. Not all Muslims are Arab. Are these racist statements? Go touch grass.
Maybe those students are trying to mask that the word "folks" is an English translation of the German word "volks" and that the Nazis were very outspoken about the idea of "Volksgemeinschaft". "Volksgemeinschaft, in Nazi Germany, a racially unified and hierarchically organized body in which the interests of individuals would be strictly subordinate to those of the nation, or Volk." From the Encyclopedia Brittanica. Radical socialist don't want to be associate with the Nazis even though they tend to believe in the same racially charged ideals. Whoopi Goldberg tried to do the same thing when she said the Holocaust wasn't about race. Of course, she'd say that. The ideology of The View is all about race and she supports it. She's trying to separate the race ideology of the Nazis and her own racially charged beliefs. Word manipulation has always been a major tool in the radical socialist armoury. It's how they control thought.
Why is she testifying should have been the end of the sentence. This is fake outrage for our masters. Literally no jewish students are in danger at Columbia.
No, not weak supervision. This is deliberate. They delegate the heinous acts to students so their hands can stay 'clean.' They know what they are doing.
It’s extra funny that they got the definition of “Ashkenazi” wrong… If they knew anything about the subject they’d know that Ashkenazi Jews come from EASTERN and not WESTERN Europe. (formerly) Western European Jews (most of which were unfortunately expelled many times from their home countries) are called Sephardi.
Not only would banning this be a negative impact to the school's incoming student base, it would be an overstep concerning the student's right to expression. When I attended university, vegans passed out pamphlets with animals inside to people that were eating meat. They had little descriptions of their daily lives and how they were brutalized by the meat industry. I'm not a vegan, and I love meat, so I fucking ignored them and threw the pamphlets away. I will not let the same people speaking out about "the nanny state" try to ban pamphlets because they don't like the contents. Fuck that, the students can make their own decisions about what is and isn't acceptable, they are grown adults. They don't need you to protect them from nonexistent threats.
@@UpsideroundIt is sanctioned because it is condoned. QED. They hand it out at orientation. AT orientation, en masse, de facto officially. Not later on campus like a normal tract. And their own website echoes that stuff, including the coded spelling of "folx."
Amazing how much the President is out of touch with thing going on in her University. Even the board members seem better inform and have a certain clarity in ansering questions which the Uni President is constantly stumbling and mumbling even on what seemed to be straight forward questions.

@user-im2hz4ki2o Ivy Leagues aren't as unaffordable as people think though, so it's a pretty bad exaggeration. The majority of students receive hefty financial aid.
I would like to note as a southern where folks is used on a daily basis- It's not gendered biased. It just means people in general You don't need to add an "x" to make it inclusive because by its own definition it is already inclusive. Attempting to change it to folx is redundant. You're not making a statement, you're not "improving inclusivity". You look silly.
I didn't know that about the word "folks" but always assumed it was all inclusive. Never any issue. These people complaining or using made up words just want to feel special, not included. You're spot on!
This is completely stupid. "Z" and "X" are commonly used, especially with young people, as in "rulz" or "tix." Written by students to other students, it is their slang, and more likely to be received by them as coming from their peers.
@@sherrillsturm7240no, it’s not exclusively used by young people. It’s common in “progressive” circles. Spelled that way by adult people who don’t use cute, teenage ways of spelling in other instances. Why even use the word ‘folks’ anyway (let alone ‘folx’)? Is ‘people’ problematic somehow?
So one of the most prestigious and liberal colleges in america is handing out discriminatory slur dictionaries with new racist words these days????😂😂😂 literally wtf.
@@norman_5623 "The students, not the college, were handing out the dictionary." How do you know? The President says "I think it was distributed by students." What is your source?
I don't believe that they are against it being distributed. By having the students do it, it gives them plausible deniability, much like when the govt makes social media companies censor because the First Amendment makes it illegal for govt to do it.
Keep in mind that at age 18, in every state, these are adults with full rights of free speech. What's missing is a code of conduct that specifies discipline up to expulsion. But Columbia wouldn't want to trample their free speech rights, then, huh?
Even though I know it is insane, a newborn child has the same full rights of free speech as someone who is 18. It's in our constitution, and is a right guaranteed to all people living here in the United States.
When young people have not been brought up with moral values, they are more inclined to accept negative, often vile, language and platforms, which in our history leads to violence. The parents themselves cannot recognize meaningless anger and lies about nothing substantial, instead of desiring living a peaceful, sane, joyous, prosperous life.
Spelling it folx tells me who attends the School of Social Work. Diversity hires. This is the School of Social Work's mission: The School's mission focuses on the development of leaders in social work practice and research, the advancement of the social work profession, professional values, knowledge, and skills, and the enhancement of well-being and the promotion of human rights and social justice at the local, national, and global level through the creation of responsive social programs and policies. Why does an Ivy League School need to produce these degrees? This is what our smartest, most capable individuals are focusing on? Expensive social workers? I'm sure Biden is bailing out their loans also.
And nobody asked this college professor one question and that question is if it's handed out to every student that is entering into the your college and you didn't know nothing about it but the students did you are basically the guilty one and trying to blame the students for something they may or may not have wrote
Students have lives and an existence outside of school. They do things that the school does not sanction. Faculty do not have complete control over every move Students make.
Yes the Senator is one of those two things for sure for thinking an administrator can somehow micromanage everything students share with each other and implicitly must approve of every crackpot idea students come up with amongst themselves. He’s awful
Not really...there's a third possibility. She may well be obfuscating. After all, she telegraphs her - I could lose my job over this matter obfuscation with her nervous 'laughter'.
Stating “It’s a document created by the students for new students” is not an acceptable answer! The students responsible for creating the document should be easy to find and should be informed that such documents are not permitted; All documents that are handed out to incoming students (etc) must receive approval by Dean of Students
There has to be oversight when federal funds are provided. I do not want another dollar of my tax money going towards these institutions or you're all fired!

Being a former employee of the bd of education, this people are able to get resources for the children in yeshiva schools, which means the denial of minority children who are denied of the basic principles of their education and now the tables are turning into madnaess and war.😢
Wait, so because “this people” advocate for their children to receive resources, children from minority backgrounds are denied services? As someone whose worked with Early Intervention, in a state that provides services at not cost to children in need, this isn’t adding up. In fact, many parents of inner city public school students have turned down evaluations that would open their children to a plethora of services. Some cultures value educational resources, some do not.
@marcellacole6132 It further proves that the entire education system needs to be overhauled, when a self-described former employee of the Board of Education can neither spell correctly, nor write coherently.

It's nice to hear that the president of Columbia doesn't know what is going on her campus, doesn't believe Columbia University students know how to spell and has decided here in this congressional hearing, to start doing her job. How reassuring.
She handled that dishonest line of questioning poorly. What a pompous jerk, with his fake gotcha questions. If she stopped the students from using their first amendment rights he would attack her for that.
The First Amendment is specifically written to prevent government suppression of free speech. Columbia University is a private institution and can quite readily specify how students should behave if they want a Columbia education.
@@daveconleyportfolio5192 and the congressman is not working for a private institution, but is trying to use public perception and the power of the state to force preferred outcomes from both the private university *and* the students attending it.
The problem y’all seem to be having is that these universities dig their own graves with this “We support the First Ammendment on our campus.” Not only is this often hypocritical when universities inevitably create speech codes (which are often necessary, though clear limits on First Ammendment-protected speech); but also means that they can choose when to pull the “speech code” card or when to continue claiming their support for the First Ammendement. Simply put: you can’t have your cake and eat it too. Choose one or the other. Either you support the First Ammendment and ALL (and I mean ALL) speech is allowed and PROTECTED on your campus or you implement a speech code that bans ALL hate speech (including some which may be more fashionable nowadays, specifically antisemitism and closely related nonsense). If private universities simply stuck to their own narratives then the type of questioning that you mentioned would simply lose its power.

Hearings like this one bring despicable things out into the light of day that otherwise would be cloaked in darkness on campuses and allowed to fester in the hearts and minds of students until that darkness erupted in the overt acts you are seeing in society now. American citizens need to know what our money (both taxes and tuition) is being spent in support of in our colleges and universities, whether public or private. We also need to know what subversion of various types is being taught in our elementary and secondary educational institutions as well. That is one positive thing that did happen as a result of Covid, the parents were given a glimpse of what was going on in America's public schools.
Banks is off the mark here. She says that the students hand this out to students. He asks why they don't stop it. They have the right under the First Amendment to be wrong, and distribute whatever crap they want. "It's still allowed to be handed out to your students." means that their right to free speech isn't being violated. Yes, it is despicable. It is hateful. But let's not become like them and trample people's rights. They have the right to be wrong, and the right to be wrong in print.

We already have way too much regulating of free speech at universities. People love to complain when they don’t like the opinion, but it is all protected free speech… which includes “hate speech”.
Our tax dollars shouldn't be going to this nonsense. Defund all of these Universities. (Edit: and for those who believe Columbia only takes private money look at their financials on their website. Their financial aid and grant money comes from the federal government)
Columbia is a private university, not public. So tax dollars are not funding it.
@@ClunFunDun Calling Columbia "private" is just a ruse. The financial aid they offer comes from the federal government. Most of their grant money comes from the federal government. I'll edit my original comment to clarify this fact for the naive.

Go touch grass.
The word folks is spelled FOLKS not Folx! It's ludicrous that the President of the University is not aware what is being handed out to the students!
Maybe those students are trying to mask that the word "folks" is an English translation of the German word "volks" and that the Nazis were very outspoken about the idea of "Volksgemeinschaft".
"Volksgemeinschaft, in Nazi Germany, a racially unified and hierarchically organized body in which the interests of individuals would be strictly subordinate to those of the nation, or Volk." From the Encyclopedia Brittanica.
Radical socialist don't want to be associate with the Nazis even though they tend to believe in the same racially charged ideals. Whoopi Goldberg tried to do the same thing when she said the Holocaust wasn't about race. Of course, she'd say that. The ideology of The View is all about race and she supports it. She's trying to separate the race ideology of the Nazis and her own racially charged beliefs. Word manipulation has always been a major tool in the radical socialist armoury. It's how they control thought.

It's not an "official product" but it is an officially-sanctioned product at the university.
I bet if it was a pro Trump piece of literature, the university wouldn’t allow it’s distribution.
I didn't see where that was stated.
Nowhere was it sanctioned. You have no way of knowing anything.
Not only would banning this be a negative impact to the school's incoming student base, it would be an overstep concerning the student's right to expression.
When I attended university, vegans passed out pamphlets with animals inside to people that were eating meat. They had little descriptions of their daily lives and how they were brutalized by the meat industry. I'm not a vegan, and I love meat, so I fucking ignored them and threw the pamphlets away.
I will not let the same people speaking out about "the nanny state" try to ban pamphlets because they don't like the contents. Fuck that, the students can make their own decisions about what is and isn't acceptable, they are grown adults. They don't need you to protect them from nonexistent threats.
@@UpsideroundIt is sanctioned because it is condoned. QED. They hand it out at orientation. AT orientation, en masse, de facto officially. Not later on campus like a normal tract.

It's not gendered biased. It just means people in general You don't need to add an "x" to make it inclusive because by its own definition it is already inclusive. Attempting to change it to folx is redundant. You're not making a statement, you're not "improving inclusivity". You look silly.
Exactly
I didn't know that about the word "folks" but always assumed it was all inclusive. Never any issue.
These people complaining or using made up words just want to feel special, not included.
You're spot on!
This is completely stupid. "Z" and "X" are commonly used, especially with young people, as in "rulz" or "tix." Written by students to other students, it is their slang, and more likely to be received by them as coming from their peers.
@@sherrillsturm7240no, it’s not exclusively used by young people. It’s common in “progressive” circles. Spelled that way by adult people who don’t use cute, teenage ways of spelling in other instances. Why even use the word ‘folks’ anyway (let alone ‘folx’)? Is ‘people’ problematic somehow?

Keep in mind that at age 18, in every state, these are adults with full rights of free speech. What's missing is a code of conduct that specifies discipline up to expulsion. But Columbia wouldn't want to trample their free speech rights, then, huh?
Even though I know it is insane, a newborn child has the same full rights of free speech as someone who is 18.
It's in our constitution, and is a right guaranteed to all people living here in the United States.

As someone whose worked with Early Intervention, in a state that provides services at not cost to children in need, this isn’t adding up.

Nonsense. Our tax dollars pay for this carp. Get a clue.
The problem y’all seem to be having is that these universities dig their own graves with this “We support the First Ammendment on our campus.” Not only is this often hypocritical when universities inevitably create speech codes (which are often necessary, though clear limits on First Ammendment-protected speech); but also means that they can choose when to pull the “speech code” card or when to continue claiming their support for the First Ammendement.
Simply put: you can’t have your cake and eat it too. Choose one or the other.
Either you support the First Ammendment and ALL (and I mean ALL) speech is allowed and PROTECTED on your campus or you implement a speech code that bans ALL hate speech (including some which may be more fashionable nowadays, specifically antisemitism and closely related nonsense).
If private universities simply stuck to their own narratives then the type of questioning that you mentioned would simply lose its power.
