      I just sent them an email requesting they keep the donation requests coming. I need more fuel for my fireplace.

      Pretty much verbatim what I said.

      I'm on hold now with their alumni department so I can tell them the same in person.

      Please love yourself.

          I remember the same going on in my high school and college decades ago. Not denying the issue.

            The Woken listed "the privileged as people who identify as male, cisgender, heterosexual, heteroromantic, Christian, White, Western European, American, upper- to middle-class, thin/athletic build, able-bodied or in their 30s to early 50s."

            And they are being taken seriously. This declaration is not considered crazy or dysfunctional in any way.

            Got it.

                Also we have been doing a toned down version of this at work for at least a decade. I have to do about 4 hours of training a year dedicated to bias with re-enactors showing us how it happens and then a test I have to pass.

                  They're directing all calls to the fucking communications and marketing team.

                  But orientation is answering, as are alumni relations. Poor bastards don't even fucking know the school is in the news for this.

                  @89th you want contact information that gets you a real person just let me know.

                  Please love yourself.

                      I'm still surprised they haven't changed the name of the school.

                        Yeah, I was chuckling about that while reading the articles…
