#1 The student union has ordered all female students and all eight female lecturers at the small Calcutta campus of Aliah University to wear the veil, called a burqa in South Asia.

Can't you just feel the tolerance? The love? The respect? The same tolerance, love and respect that they demand when they are in the minority?

Me neither.

#2 So instead of calling out the retards, they sweep it under the rug and look the other way while the less-than-desireables continue to terrorize and intimidate their way through life.

#3 If they really wanted to leave a mark, they should find out who is responsible for this, then dock them a letter grade in every course for the semester. Then notify their parents that they are slumming, and on academic probation.

Then require them to take her course, advising them that she knows who they are, so they had better be extra studious and polite.

#4 Anonymoose, how effective will academic punishment be, in a country where most of the politicians purchased their degrees?

#6 Politicians purchasing degrees is common in Pakistan where you must have a degree in order to stand for elections.

In India, anybody can stand for elections. The former chief minister of Bihar (population - 80 million), Rabri Devi is illiterate.

#7 in a country where most of the politicians purchased their degrees?

Even our president didn't purchase his degree, WolfDog. He just upgraded due to his charm, but he actually had to get scholarships and attend class and all that. Had Senator John F. Kerry been able to purchase a degree, it would have been from Harvard Law, not merely Boston U. What we've got, in terms of too many of our degreed people, is men and women who learnt how to get degrees, but not how to think effectively, an entirely different problem.

#8 attend class and all that

Little evidence of that. No one at Columbia remembers him.
