Among activists’ sticking points, especially for a group of students called Reedies Against Racism, was Hum 110. The course, which faces a curricular and pedagogical review every 10 years but has maintained a fundamentally Western orientation, is simply too white, too male and too Eurocentric, critics charged, especially for a course required of all students. Moreover, the student activists said, Hum 110 largely ignores how these works may have been used over time to perpetuate violence against people of color.
Sen. Ted Cruz said Tuesday that one of his staffers “inadvertently” liked a tweet showing incest porn and that the issue is being dealt with internally.
Sen. Ted Cruz just responded to the accidental like of a hardcore porn video on his @TedCruz Twitter account last night in the best way possible — with humor:
Well, since you asked, the agent runs his hand inside a passenger’s waistband and also runs his hand up the back of each leg until he “meets resistance” and then does the same from the front of each leg. And then the TSA agent swipes the front of his hands 3 or 4 times right over the zipper area of one’s Gap Outlet comfort-stretch khakis. That last part was the most unpleasant.

During the past several years, the body mass index (BMI), which is a ratio of an individual’s height and weight, has become a measurement of whether a person is considered healthy. Many companies in the United States use their employees’ BMIs as a factor in determining workers’ healthcare costs.
A person’s body mass index (BMI), once considered an indicator of high body fatness and overall health, isn’t such a good indicator of those things after all, according to a recent study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine. Or at least it isn’t without some added context that only the old reliable waistline tape measure can provide, according to North Jersey doctors.

Last Thursday afternoon a number of anonymous chalk messages appeared on campus. But because these chalk messages read “#Stop Islam” and “Trump 2016,” these innocuous messages elicited 911 calls and apology from the president of the university. Apparently such statements constitute “hate speech.”
The University of Michigan is conducting a study on male engineering students to determine whether their unconscious biases—microaggressions—are driving women out of the field. The study is funded via the National Science Foundation, which means taxpayers coughed up more than $500,000 for it.
