They were all in a University program.
What is the University doing to investigate what happened?
Nothing.
He’s a billionaire. She’s not.

Two dozen rally to support University of Minnesota undergrad who alleges she was raped by Chinese billionaire strib.mn/39MSXnx
Did University faculty or staff encourage her to attend this dinner where massive amounts of alcohol were consumed?
We are entitled to answers on this.
Ethical University fundraising does not involve inviting foreign billionaires over to participate in University programs, take undergraduate women out to get drunk and follow them home for “consensual” sex.
Where is the University investigation?
Nowhere.

America also has its past.
Far from being an obstacle, academic honesty in historical research is necessary when confronting the past.
Knowing what happened, and who was responsible for what, is critically important to making sure it doesn't happen again.

Results oriented research -- for example research that downplays the role of politicians and political appointees such as University Regents -- in implementing discriminatory policies, makes it much harder to hold persons with political power accountable today.
Minnesota in the 1930's may have been better than Alabama in the 1960's but powerful politicians and University Regents appointed by the Governor and legislature pushed for segregated student housing. Their role needs to be researched and documented in any report on the subject.

University of Minnesota Regent Michael Hsu sums it up:
"We know what happens. Students end up paying more money.”
That's what universities are doing to students across America.
In the 1950's and 60's public college was almost free. No more.

Irresponsible legislatures either are cutting higher education budgets or are handing universities money for big construction projects and other initiatives without a sensible commitment to control tuition.
Look at this map. Where is the low cost student housing?
Or is it only rich students who are allowed to live near campus?

"Rather than submit the comments in writing during the public comment period, as is customary, EPA officials instead delivered them over the phone to their counterparts at the MPCA after the comment period had closed."

Cover-up.

businessnorth.com/minnesota_publ…
I am not shocked that political appointees in Trump's EPA would cover up career EPA experts' concerns about a dangerous sulfide mine. That's business as usual under Trump. I am shocked that Minnesota state regulators would not only go along with this cover up but encourage it.
The objective of Trump's EPA: To keep comments of career EPA scientists about a dangerous sulfide mine out of the public record so Glencore could get permits for its PolyMet sulfide mine.
Glencore by the way is a Swiss mining giant that is close to Vladimir Putin.

SHORT THREAD ON LABOUR/LIB DEM PACT #TacticalVoting

@jeremycorbyn has consistently said that this country needs a Labour Gov and that it may be “our last chance” to stop a Tory #Brexit. @joswinson has also campaigned heavily against a Tory majority and stopping Brexit 1/17
The @YouGov MRP poll however, found that the Tories are expected to obtain a majority of 68 MPs. However, many of those seats are predicted to remain/go Tory by a small margin and if Corbyn & Swinson are truly determined to prevent a Tory government, it isn’t too late....yet 2/17
If a tactical voting pact is activated in these marginal seats, a Tory majority would be stopped. I’ll analyse some seats where it is looking increasingly likely that unless a tactical vote pact (or widespread tactical voting) is agreed, then they may be lost to the Tories. 3/17

On Tuesday, April 23, 2019, Minnesota House Democrats voted in favor of including pornography and sexual perversions as part of the Minnesota House Education Omnibus Bill, HF2400.
The Minnesota Child Protection League (CPL) tried to warn parents and stakeholders to call their legislators to urge them to remove Comprehensive Sex Education (CSE) from the 258-page House Education Omnibus bill HF2400 before it was debated on last Tuesday.

1) I'm not sure how to make people remember or care that 15 years ago the United States invaded Iraq, setting off a war that continues to this day, with several hundred thousand Iraqis dead, millions turned into refugees. I covered the invasion for the New York Times Magazine.
2) Though I'm a writer, I shot photos during the invasion as I drove a rented Hyundai SUV from Kuwait into Iraq via Safwan, then up the spine of the country to Nasiriya, Diwaniya, Hilla, Kut and finally Baghdad. Here's the Hyundai on March 19, 2003. It's clean--that will change
3) The photographer I worked with, Laurent vander Stockt, drove his own SUV. After several failed attempts to get into Iraq, one time turned back at gunpoint by U.S. soldiers, we finally got through, via what we guessed was a minefield (I followed Lauren tracks). Here's Laurent.
