The feminization of the American university is all but complete.
The great Heather MacDonald lays it all down…
Mills is part of the Great Feminization of the American university, an epochal change whose consequences have yet to be recognized. Seventy-five percent of Ivy League presidents are now female. Nearly half of the 20 universities ranked highest by Forbes will have a female president this fall, including MIT, Harvard, and Columbia. Of course, feminist bean-counters in the media and advocacy world are not impressed, noting that “only” 5 percent of the 130 top U.S. research universities are headed by a black female and “only” 22 percent of those federal grant-magnets have a non-intersectional (i.e., white) female head.
These female leaders emerge from an ever more female campus bureaucracy, whose size is reaching parity with the faculty. Females made up 66 percent of college administrators in 2021; those administrators constitute an essential force in campus diversity ideology, whether they have “diversity” in their job titles or not. Among the official diversity bureaucrats installed in their posts since July 2022, females predominate: the vice chancellor for equity, diversity, and inclusion at the University of California, San Diego; the vice chancellor for equity, diversity, and inclusion at UCLA; the vice president for diversity, equity, and inclusion at Maryville University in Missouri; the chief diversity officer and vice president for diversity, equity, and inclusion at the School of Education at the College of Charleston in South Carolina; the vice president for diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging at Kansas State University; the associate dean of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging at the University of Kansas School of Law; the vice chancellor for diversity, equity, and inclusion at the University of California, Santa Cruz; the vice president for inclusion and community impact at Herzing University in Wisconsin; the associate provost for faculty and diversity initiatives at Muhlenberg College (this associate provost also became Muhlenberg’s first chief diversity officer); the first chief officer of culture, belonging, and community building at Delta College in Michigan; the vice president for diversity, equity, and inclusion at the State University of New York, Plattsburgh; the vice provost for faculty diversity, equity, and inclusivity at the University of Texas, Austin (a lateral move from the position of managing director of diversity in UT’s office of the executive vice president and provost); the vice president for equity, culture, and talent at Prince George’s Community College—all are female.
oh, it can get worse,
Female students and administrators often exist in a co-dependent relationship, united by the concepts of victim identity and of trauma. For university females, there is not, apparently, strength in numbers. The more females’ ranks increase, the more we hear about a mass nervous breakdown on campus. Female students disproportionately patronize the burgeoning university wellness centers, massage therapies, relaxation oases, calming corners, and healing circles.
When everything is working right, and the UIL approves, they also provided live video of the games.
Don’t ask me, I don’t know. But after five years of doing it, for four dedicated amateur broadcasters, they do pretty well.
Mostly all on their own dime.

What does “enhanced audio only” mean exactly ?
You’re either calling the game or you are not.
Shannon
I went to the BellvilleSport.com site and it looks like they’ll be streaming audio of the game tomorrow.
Watching a movie called Edelweiss Pirates. (German, English subtitles). Pretty good movie.
The Edelweiss Pirates were loosely organized young Germans who hated the Nazi government and refused to join the Hitler Youth. Wiki has an extensive page on them.

Bellville Sports.com says they will be doing “enhance audio only” coverage. Their “pregame coverage starts at approximately 2:20pm”.
They receive texts and/or emails sometimes during the game. You should do so….they’ll probably mention that they have a New Jersey listener. 🙂
Shannon
Dang, if I was there we would have to go to the game even if it is in the DFW.
Is the Bellville Brahma online announcing broadcast still available ?
I have no Direct Tv.
I would love to know if I could listen to the game online tomorrow afternoon since I will not be home.
This is the most important thing to happen in years.
They said that this morning the several team/band/cheer busses took six trips around the Courthouse Square, in honor of the six playoff game wins. Loud music and loud people with flags and banners there for the send off. And then they headed up to Arlington.
If anyone is interested, I am told the Bellville vs. Gilmer 4A State Championship game is available free to customers of DIRECT TV.
Game time is 3pm tomorrow.
Bellville will be a ghost town tomorrow with many businesses closed. Bellville has a fan base that travels, let me tell ya.
I eat Salmon once a week. Usually a fillet topped with Greek Pesto and young asparagus.
This evening, for the first time, I added a side of jalapeño black beans.
An extraordinarily great combination of flavors.

The house rino-Vampyres also voted to not allow a president to unilaterally pull out of NATO because they know Trump would do it.

We got an updated version of the Nigerian letter. It said a distant cousin of Hubby’s had passed “a few years ago” and funds unclaimed for “ten years or more” needed to be distributed, and he needed our help in finding family. The letter was dated Nov 20, arrived today. But since it’s posted from Canada, that could be reasonable. … Read more »

I saw that earlier and wondered what drugs were involved in the production, review, and approval process of that monstrosity. And in what quantities.
Jill Biden’s taste in decor is just above the Clinton horrors. They actually had pornographic “artistic” tree decorations.

This video paints a rather unflattering picture of the Gaza leadership. The depravity and lack of concern for human life is breath taking.
We in Texas are re-evaluating the wisdom of accepting statehood.
It turns out Ol’ Sam may have been wrong.

It looks ugly.
The last few storms here out of the west have split when they hit Pennsylvania with half going Northeast into upstate New York and the other half hitting the Maryland/Delaware/DC area. NJ has been pretty lucky this fall.

Yep, that’s the Low that formed off the Rockies, due to pass thru here tomorrow night as a front, and continue east…then north, up the east coast.
The homicidal woman in Alabama in my comment at 12:34 PM showed up just in time to support my assertions in the comment at 11:37 AM.

The only US weather action I see is a squall sitting over Brownsville/Matamoros and this front stretching from Central Texas to northern Kansas moving eastward.
This Alabama alumna is one sick, disgusting woman. Students at the University of Alabama in Huntsville say they intend to press charges after receiving threatening social media communication from an alumna who took such issue with the group’s support of Jews that she threatened to take a “12 gauge shotgun” to their “skull.” The school’s Turning Point USA chapter held… Read more »

Weather guys seem to agree that this system that is going to dump a bunch of rain on us tomorrow night is then going on to Super Dave’s, then join up with another system and head up your way and whack you good next week.
I like the fact Vivek Ramaswamy, Tucker Carlson, Darren Beattie and others are out there saying many things I agree with and driving the Left insane. However, I wouldn’t vote for or donate to them nor will I subscribe to their ventures. I don’t trust any of them or their fellow travelers in the quasi-isolationist crowd. I definitely don’t trust… Read more »

I had to go get a big tall glass of unsweetened ice tea. I didn’t think I put that much hot chili powder in the pot of chili I made last night.
It’s larruping’ good though.
My side dish is this black bean, avocado, tomato, onion and cilantro salad from the Maywood Market.
Love him or hate him, Vivek is great about speaking his mind fearlessly: Yesterday’s best clip featured Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy on a live CNN Town Hall, rapidly tossing truth grenades like Hunter’s laptop, the Wuhan lab leak, and the Gretchen Whitmer fednapping trial (resulting in the jury finding the defendants not guilty).

From the headline story.. Females made up 66 percent of college administrators in 2021; Females earned 58 percent of all B.A.s in the 2019–2020 academic year; if present trends continue, they will soon constitute two-thirds of all B.A.s. At least 60 percent of all master’s degrees, and 54 percent of all Ph.D.s, now go to females. This all goes to… Read more »

A chilly Good Morning to us all! I got up early — For me! Early for me!! — because my car is in the shop and I need to be awake when they call to arrange a ride for me.
Which shows that progressive women are willing to suffer any indignity for the cause.
BTW, Last night I went back and read Wednesday’s “Demonic Academia O.C.” and it was certainly a RTWDT post.
