It Shouldn't Be So Easy to Go to Grad School
Well, it wasn't particularly easy for me to to go grad school.
I wasn't funded my first year. I took loans. After doing very well that first year, the university gave me a full four-year ride: tuition fellowships, minority fellowships, and teaching assistantships, etc. I was so happy: I was overjoyed when the letter from the graduate division arrived!
In any case, I don't recommend my students go for the Ph.D. in political science, not in this job market, unless it's a die-hard dream for them, something to achieve out of love of the discipline. It's probably better to get a master degree in a professional program, like public public policy or international relations.
In any case, at Instapundit, "HIGHER EDUCATION BUBBLE UPDATE: Megan Mcardle: It Shouldn’t Be So Easy to Go to Grad School: Universities are milking the huge loan sums from grad students to subsidize the cost of undergraduate degrees. This system is broken."

Demonizing Heterosexuals
Actually, this op-ed doesn't appear very supportive. In fact, the author demonizes normal people as grotesque monsters. And she spews fake "research" suggesting the most successful family arrangement for raising kids is lesbian partnerships. So stupid.
I get angry reading these leftist screeds sometimes. They're so fucked up.

Let's consider frankly an aspect of the same-sex marriage debate not adequately covered so far: heterosexuality https://t.co/IOiCUBwsed

Alejandro Villanueva Apologizes for Standing for National Anthem (VIDEO)
We're in a bad place in America, where you have to apologize for standing up for your country. And it's especially bad that this guy groveled: He served in Afghanistan. Three tours. Three f***ing tours. Mike Tomlin, the entire Steelers organization, and the NFL need to apologize to him.
Folks are saying they're done with the NFL. Lifelong fans as saying they're through. The higher-ups surrounding Roger Goodell need to do some serious damage control. This is getting existential.
And I was angry today talking about this with my wife. I felt pure anger.

John M. Del Vecchio, The 13th Valley
At Amazon, John M. Del Vecchio, The 13th Valley: A Novel.
A work that has served as a literary cornerstone for the Vietnam generation, The 13th Valley follows the strange and terrifying Vietnam combat experiences of James Chelini, a telephone-systems installer who finds himself an infantryman in territory controlled by the North Vietnamese Army. Spiraling deeper and deeper into a world of conflict and darkness, this harrowing account of Chelini's plunge and immersion into jungle warfare traces his evolution from a semi-pacifist to an all-out warmonger. The seminal novel on the Vietnam experience, The 13th Valley is a classic that illuminates the war in Southeast Asia like no other book.
