This book was on every single GOFO’s reading list for a generation and is still probably mandatory reading at the academies and PME lol

out of curiosity i checked the attendance on last year's game at fenway, which was much closer to the home campuses of those academies (which i guess doesn't matter as much because military academies)

about 10K

spirit-royals will clear that so easily

funny how all those segregation academies have storied traditions going allllll the way back to 1954.
Segregation-academy racist is a crazy level of racist! So racist that racists are embarrassed to admit to it publicly. You go to a segregation academy when you have chosen racism as your professional vocation.

At the tail end of Jim Crow the Byrd Machine just shut down entire school systems rather than integrate. Diverting the money to private whites-only segregation academies.

Prince Edward County closed its public schools for 5 straight years. (1959-1964)
as bad as you think jim crow was, it was worse

Does he mean the civilian historians at service academies that he just fired?

I appreciate the interest and support from people concered with how Hegseth is changing military education, but honestly what's happening in some civilian univs such as FIT is worse censorship and intellectual dishonesty than actions at the academies or war colleges so far

Rich physicians are also prone to forming lobbies and associations to pursue goals like limiting entry quotas at medical academies like in my country for example.

Academies are a terrible idea !
The very idea that Lab (Labour !) would introduce academies and not consider how owners of academy chains would use it to promote their vested interests and run them almost like businesses! And with the introduction of academies came tuition fees!
This is NOT Labour!

We 🫶 geophysics!

This week, I joined my colleagues on The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine Committee on Solid Earth Geophysics (COSEG) for our fall meeting, focused on exploration geophysics.

So what he's doing with the boards of the academies.

je n'ai pas les données pour les autres académies
mais ça donne une idée
donc RIEN ne rentre dans l'ordre
la seule réponse qu'obtiennent les lycéen-nes c'est soit la violence policière, soit la fermeture du bahut (qui permet de dire qu'il n'y a pas de blocus, ben non, c'est fermé)

Gawd, the Army uniforms for the annual “slap-fight of sad football between academies that would be steamrolled by any high school team from the Midwest or South” are just godawful

Did they just leave white jerseys sitting in algae for a month?

There’s a metaphor here somewhere

Everything is Rebel Spirit podcast.

In Season 1 Episode 6 "Other Rebels" @akilahhughes.com talks about segregation academies and other schools that adopted confederate imagery and names.
One way to understand how huge a shift Scott Colom becoming Senator for Mississippi is in US politics is to take a look at the educational background of his Republican opponent

She can always work for peanuts for the MAGA christian academies popping up all over the country.

"Education, education, education"

So now we have the University sector really struggling

We have Academies with no real oversight in Schools - as for the megalith multi-academies 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

And, a Nursery sector struggling to to survive and provide enough places

That's gone well Tony 🤨

Mohler is from the Church of Slavers and Segregationists. It's amazing how that entire Southern Baptist history is ignored. They were the massive resistance to school desegregation. They were the ones behind seg academies. They still pimp "school choice", the seg academies' inbred offspring.
Don't let Albert Mohler and his ilk frame Talerico and others as left-wing Christianity. Talerico's Christianity is mainstream Christianity. The apocalypytic evangelicals like Mohler are all the part of a extremist subculture that rejects science and secular democracy. Cf. Richard Hofstadter.

Pete Hegseth's goal is not a more competent military but a more white supremacist military.

Civilian instructors at US service academies are an impediment to Hegseth's vision.

endlessly gratifying that one of the conservative movement's longest-term plans, the abolition of public schools through voucherization to be replaced with private christian segregation academies, has seen the fullest attempt to institute it in a state met with a total republican cataclysm in texas
One factor that helped fuel Democrats' dominance in Texas last night: Parental anger over the GOP's multiyear to war to force private school vouchers, ban library books and impose conservative Christian values on public schoolchildren.

“Parents are just hopping mad,” one Republican told us.
Anger over GOP education agenda helped fuel Democratic sweeps in Texas, advocates say
Before they flipped Texas blue, Gina Hinojosa and James Talarico made names for themselves fighting book bans, private school vouchers and restrictions on classroom instruction.

The US military officer corps is objectively bad at strategic matters.

It's more a pipeline for being part of the war profiteering bureaucracy.

Civilian instructors at service academies enhance the training and professionalism of the officer corps.
