You can actually drown in the irony of #UCLA's vile pro-Israel folks attacking anti-genocide protesters with literal bombs
Our U.S. colleges should NOT be in chaos on behalf of either Hamas terrorists OR the Israeli war criminals
We need to clear "encampments" off campuses now

Fascinating points on campus protests from the 1970s... a great thread and worth the read ⤵️

Hear me out, gang...
I know the perfect place for #UCLA to put BOTH its Hamas encampment and its Israeli encampment, and there's so much empty space that nobody will bother anybody else...
Plus, there's plenty of food and restrooms available...
What do y'all think? 🤔🤣
Today's settlement discussions of ~$20M / school towards athlete revenue share sounds like a workable solution...

TOTAL NFL DRAFT PICKS 🏈
By Forward-Aligned FBS Conference
With the 2024 #NFLDraft complete, here's how many came from each FBS conf's ongoing members:
The consolidation of talent from just three main confs is remarkable, especially after going beyond just the first-round stars
At this point, it's sadly time for #USC to expel the agitators who are wreaking havoc on campus during exams & wrecked its graduation ceremony
Yes, both Israeli + Hamas leaders all belong in The Hague for war crimes, but our private USC campus cannot remain under protestor siege

IS YOUR SCHOOL GETTING MORE POPULAR?
Admit/Yield Rates - FY03-23 - Power 4 🎓
Looking at two decades of change in admit rates (% accepted) and yield rates (% of admits who enroll), it's interesting to see which schools are getting harder to get in & more popular:
Any surprises?
I warned you, ACC fans, that the State of Florida fights dirty, and that you should have worked out a settlement with FSU...

UPDATE: As LAPD calmly arrests protestors on the #USC campus, this is (so far) a good, safe model for how to handle a mess.
As a reminder, the 1st Amendment protects you from gov't. USC is a private school and this is private property, so nobody's rights are being violated
