  1. And since it's a private school they are able to declare that?
  2. Sorry if its been mentioned before, but did we ever hear what caused the police offers to start arresting protesters at Emory?
  3. Can you imagine the uproar if they allow teachers to lead prayer and a teacher leads a non Christian prayer?
  4. https://www2.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/religionandschools/prayer_guidance.html For example, "nothing in the Constitution . . . prohibits any public school student from voluntarily praying at any time before, during, or after the schoolday," and therefore students may pray with fellow students during the school day on the same terms and conditions that they may engage in other comparable conversations or activities. Students may also speak to, and attempt to persuade, their peers about religious matters just as they may do with regard to, for example, political matters.
  5. I didn't realize students couldn't pray at school? It's understandable that the public teachers/schools can't lead class/school wide prayers, but nothing is preventing the student from praying alone or with a group of friends.
  6. If he's not expected to be drafted or a late 2nd round pick, it would be a huge benefit to come back. Get another year of NIL and free education.
  7. I think he can still come back if he doesnt like his projection. In basketball, you can declare for the draft and keep eligibility. A lot of times it's more to see what you need to work on for the upcoming season
  8. Only 10% of Jokics makes are from 3 and less than 5% for Giannis. These guys make a living from inside and only shoot to keep defenders from collapsing the lane
  9. Yes they shot more, but uconns 3s were for the most part open 3s after getting the ball inside. Bamas were no pass or 1 pass shot. Also Bama's defensive strategy this year was to bait teams into shooting 3s so they could get the long rebound and out in transition.
  10. Both Denver and Milwaukee have their best players as big men that can create their own shot inside. The reason they surround them with so many shooters is to remove defenders from the paint and to make them pay for doubling inside.
  11. It's likely the same reason why the right refuses to have a system where they are required to register their guns
  12. Not sure how you jumped to that conclusion but okay
  13. Calling someone else petty while your reasoning is petty is hilarious.
  14. Not at that price. It is still drastically overvalued. They have little revenue, nothing that gives them a competitive edge, and competitors that are trying to innovate the space. This is just a cheap knock off trying to take advantage of their political base.
  15. Here is the easy way where you don't have to do any research: https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Two-fund_portfolio
  16. The difference between "safe", middle of the road, and risky isn't what companies you're invested in, it's the bond to market ratio. Most will be 2 or 3 fund portfolio and really the difference you need to watch out for is the expense ratio on the funds used, as well as the fees for a financial advisor if you use one.
  17. Or how much you pay to have it professionally managed.
  18. So you're admitting to be an illegal alien?
  19. You might be a MAGA if you think auburnatl1 is a leftie.
  20. His "locker room" talk occurred in his 50s. It speaks of his character that he is still participating in those conversations. And what he said isn't okay to say regardless of the situation or age. I don't understand why you all continue to make excuses for this child.
  21. I get what you are saying, but I don't see how Pegues fits into the "taking their talents to South Beach" when they encounter adversity. I think his situation and lot of other players in the portal from small schools trying to make a name for themselves with the big conferences is one of the benefits of the transfer portal. Instead of being stuck in a league he is dominating, he now has a chance to prove himself that he can play with anyone.
  22. You know, the more I think about this, the more good it will do for our society if we enacted an adult recess hour for say 2pm for the 8-5 workers and not sure about the night shifters. 1. It will lower obesity levels for obvious reasons 2. Decrease depression as there is a strong correlation between happiness levels and working out. 3. Even though they lose an hour, employees will become more productive since they will be reenergized for the normal lull parts of the day.
  23. Well the biggest flaw in your logic is that you want to fix our literacy rate by making school optional after elementary school. Making school optional will only lower our educational standards even more. You say that the bad students hold back the good students. Well most schools have gifted programs specifically for those individuals and once they get to middle school, the good but not gifted students will rarely if ever be in classes with the bad students. While I can see your point for online only classes, because as an introvert I would've thrived in that environment, there is more to going to school than just learning how to read/write. I think the biggest advantage for going to school is learning how to interact with people of different backgrounds, cultures, etc. Historically, most people met their spouses at school. Another thing, they already have and use standardized tests regularly. That's how we are able to see which school districts are over/under performing. I actually think the biggest problem with our education system is that it is drastically underfunded. My reasoning is that generally the best public school systems are in the wealthier counties because the parents put additional funding into their schools. They are able to get the best teachers because the teachers know that they will not have to pay out of pocket for any recourses they need for their class. Increase teachers salary so it is a competitive career path.
  24. Aren't the red states more likely to be at the bottom of the list in terms of education ranking?
  25. There was so much wrong in that post I could only shake my head and chuckle
