Could you imagine paying TCU tuition for that garbage?

All the kids in that department are smart scholarship kids that pay no or very little tuition.

What a waste of a scholarship.

Can you imagine your annual donations going towards that crap?

Oh, wait! They do!

 

[Westsider]

Who cares. Live and let live.

So of you guys are just beyond help in your hatred of anything that isn't you

"Can you believe someone got so upset at a T-shirt what a bunch of....hey wait what's with this quilt???? Aaarrrggghhh!"

I saw the quilts at TCU 25 or so years ago. It was way more poignant back then. (Kids, if you're wondering why, watch the movies Reality Bites and ...And the Band Played On.) It's really hard to imagine they're still on tour, unless they've been co-opted to be about the continuing AIDS crisis in Africa, which seems doubtful.

YA, didn’t see any hatred, just some that couldn’t see paying high tuition for that type of core study. Hell, I can’t justify paying TCU tuition for any degree. First two years at community college then TCU makes it more affordable.

I took that route. It was way before tuition prices went through the roof. Got a 4.0 at TCJC and got a half scholarship. Made it extremely affordable as a married commuter who worked 30 hours a week as a fry cook/waiter to pay the bills.
I doubt that is a viable option these days.

Those are very true statements. My son will be a high school senior next year. Even though he'd be a fourth generation frog, without something along the lines of a chancellor's scholarship, he will probably end up at UT, UTD, or another safety school.

Yeah, I think you'd have to pick between fry cook and waiter now.

Sadly, everything is so specialized now.

I think they felt you were behind on your virtue signals. Chance to catch up.

Hell, we had women studies. But that's not what we called it.

I agree with Westsider...live and let live. But I think TCU, the campus and culture, is very different then it was back in our day. I was there from 1990 to 1994. Some of you are older. Some are younger. I think it's a very different place now.

Very true
