President Jonathan Holloway and Rutgers’ four chancellors have chosen 12 Big Ideas that will anchor Rutgers’ historic campaign
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
Systemic racism the first one. Shocking.
This dude is such a phony clown.
This dude is such a phony clown.
The first one is a project to provide public health services for underserved communities...not sure why that's "phony clown" material. These are all "big ideas" projects that are put forward by folks within the Rutgers community that the administration chooses as ways to make a difference.

Without revealing too much, I have listened to him speak about topics. He reminds me of Chris Ash. He doesn't believe what he is saying. He's phony. Parroting "systemic racism" talking points makes him a clown.
Keep up the good work President Holloway
Fighting cancer and crime, promoting art and health, and helping make education available to underprivileged people is leftist claptrap?
Even if you don't love every one of the ideas on this list, there is really no reason to be so incredibly negative about such utterly non-controversial projects.
Except for STEM subjects our University, like so many others, is dominated by leftist thinkers and policy makers.. Did you get the letter from him about the storming of the Cap Bldg as threatening our democracy. Funny that we never heard from him about the attacks on the Federal Court Bldg this summer...or the riots and looting...or the takeover of portions of a major city,,, or the Marxist philosophy of the BLM organization. The coup against Trump is now complete But I am sure you won't hear our historian University Pres ever call it that.
You need to read that list again. If you do not see the leftist tilt you aren't being honest.
Ignore the buzzwords, and actually read them. Which of the below list do you have a problem with? The art?
- This is for providing health service to underserved communities.
- This is dedicated to helping excellent students without access to large amounts of money have access to education.
- Focusing on the ethical implications of technology and being a leader in emerging tech.
- Improving the environment through science and technology, focusing on health, economic impact, and security.
- Fighting pandemics.
- Medicinal research.
- Helping grow community based art, as well as ways to critically engage in it.
- Fighting cancer.
- Fostering urban business growth and how it effects the communities where that entrepreneurship takes place.
- Increasing crime investigation capabilities in South Jersey.
- Helping increase quality of life for an aging population.
- Increasing economic growth in south Jersey,

This so KrAzy:
Advancing Urban Public Health: An Equity and Social Justice Approach
"The Rutgers community envisions a world where every person—regardless of their location, socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity, or any intersecting identities—can achieve optimal health and well-being."
Colleges are the #1 reason things are falling apart. People have problems because "experts" who believe in rubbish like "intersecting identities" seed problems in people under the guise of helping them. We will be living under bridges with this kind of nonsense coming from high places. You can see why the field of psychology is a sea of corruption and in demise
Right after that first bit of insanity you get
"Efforts to enhance the health of people and populations are clearly falling short, particularly for individuals who are too often marginalized or underserved. For example, Black women in New Jersey have one of the highest rates of maternal death in the country"
Yes the have more health and infant mortality problems because they often get pregnant too young. But "shhhhhh" lets blame others

"Intersecting identities" is hardly some bizarre, alien concept. It simply means that people have multiple facets to their lives. Someone who is catholic and and a man has two intersecting facets of who they are, which are different than someone who is catholic and a woman.
For example, women are more likely to support the right to choose in all cases than men, however, women are also more likely to be religious. People who are religious are less likely to support the right to choose. Therefore, person's gender and religious status are two intersecting identities that affect their viewpoints and therefore also affect statistician's work. I use this as an example simply because I have previously written a paper on the subject and the statistic's availability is convenient, not as any sort of comment on abortion.
Not sure how that very, very basic concept makes psychology a "sea of corruption." I also assume you meant "decline", not demise.
Regardless of anything else, I'd be curious to hear your objection to efforts to help stop women from dying in or shortly after childbirth. Even if the stereotype you cite is accurate to New Jersey (although a quick search does confer some legitimacy on it from a wider scale https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4576914/), the approach described in this project would likely include efforts to help these young women avoid unintended pregnancies through education, which is likely less of a drain on the state, even financially, than the biomedical approach. How is this a bad thing? Per the project page: "New Jersey has one of the highest rates of maternal death in the country, higher than the rates in Mississippi or Alabama." How is attempting to lower maternal death a bad thing, let alone a political leaning?

Its psychotic in itself. A person has to be suggestible to think its normal to have "intersecting" identities." That's possible in a dysfunctional and abnormal/disordered kind of way but its not normal. "Intersecting identities" just means fractured. A overinflated body-builder can be compensating for all sorts of insecurities - so can being lopsided intellectually. Many disordered/emotional people "think too much" and get stuck there. Trying cure than by studying and thinking more makes things worse. That's actually a big problem with psychology. Traumatized people are overfocused and fixated. They need to be defocused and unfixedated. People who get "treatment" after a trauma can get worse . Telling people their fractured identities is normal is a betrayal
...what? What does any of that have to do with intersectionality?
- As a public research university Rutgers has both a mission and responsibility to provide tangible benefits to the state; these goals are examples of how the school aims to do so.
- The opportunity to take part in projects such as these is a recruiting tool for faculty who are teachers for undergrads.
- Undergraduate and graduate students at Rutgers actively take part in projects such as these. This is a differentiator for RU, where students come out of school with real, hands on experience, and a great addition to their resume. As a former Scarlet Ambassador I can tell you that this was big attractor for talent.
- #2 on the list is specifically focused on the accessibility of a college education.
Depends how you use or misuse use the term. "Intersectionality" is neo-Marxist claptrap - like labels with the words "justice" and "critical." People who aren't very smart can feel smart when they get wrapped up in such lingo. Right now you aren't supposed to say "Mom and Dad" in the House, and kids are in the street setting their futures on fire thinking they are creating something new. No bureaucratic, education jargon will save these kid's futures. Not even NYC could survive the kooks. Time to stand back and let it all fall in on the people set-up to fail. Colleges have failed in a big way
That's...a really dark take, considering the only thing we're talking about here is an analytical framework for understanding how different parts of someone's identity interact to create their experiences with other members of society.
