R1?

The big research universities. A majority of students aren’t educated at them, and never have been. If you’re only talking to R1 faculty, you’re talking to faculty whose students are typically more well-prepared than average and higher socioeconomic status.

Clearly, the answer is Cultural Fascism.

As a side note, Georgia State is apparently considered an R1 now, and is actual diverse, along the lines of race and class… but honestly, that’s an anomaly among R1s and isn’t representative.

Y’all are a land grant, right? I think the land grant schools often do a lot better at drawing representative samples.

No, I believe UGA is, though. GSU started as a commuter school in two floors of a building downtown in 1913, actually as a part of GA Tech.
We didn’t get dorms until a decade ago? We’ve only recently become a R1.
[ETA] for further clarification, UGA, which is indeed a land grant (and apparently a sea grant?) university is far whiter and far more upper middle class than GSU.

But then if they withdraw their claim of being raped, to avoid paying the fee, we get to hear all about ‘false charges’.
When I worked as an advocate for rape victims, one of the first things we would tell them is that they should NOT give any insurance information, or any other way of being billed. At least in Illinois, the state is required to pick up the tab for rape victims who go to a hospital (or go to the police, who will take them to the hospital) if they don’t provide their own method of payment.

Ms. McCaskill, with all due respect, sit down and shut up.

Can someone please help young woman politicians to be less “self-effacing” and to cross over into bitch territory repeatedly and unapologetically?
Please?

I was listening to that interview as I was taking my daughter to school… I kept yelling at the radio. She also said when, early in her career, the head of the legislature told her she needed to get knee pads to get a bill out of her committee, that she just “laughed it off.” That’s well and truly fucked and it pains me that my daughter had to hear that shit, even though I know she knows it’s wrong. Terrible advice for young women.

If I’m shot and killed someday by an angry, hateful man, will you read his manifesto, or will you read mine?
