Texas officials have ordered a Muslim university in the Dallas area to shut down after accusing the school of illegally offering degree programs without state approval.
In a May 6 letter sent to TexAM University at Dallas, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board said that the entity "must immediately cease advertising, offering, and enrolling students in degrees or programs of study until it has applied for and been granted a Certificate of Authority."
The letter alleged that TexAM University at Dallas "is operating a ‘university’ that ‘offer[s] STEM degree programs’ both online and ‘at the Richardson campus.’"
The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board wrote that, following a review, it found that TexAM is not compliant with Texas laws and regulations.
"TexAM’s advertising and postings via its website indicate that your entity publicly holds itself out as offering in the State of Texas STEM degree programs, including a master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence and admissions to bachelor’s degree programs in computer science, IT, cybersecurity, and health informatics," the letter read.
On Monday, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton announced that he was suing TexAM University at Dallas for "unlawfully presenting itself as a university, offering degrees it is not authorized to grant, and misleading prospective students about its legitimacy."
In a press release, Paxton said that TexAM University at Dallas also "adopted branding and a name ‘confusingly similar’ to Texas A&M University."

Why is this guy a POS again?
To be fair the guy does seem a little like a piece of shite for trying to minimize Kirk’s murder and the outrage over it while still raw (some possible TDS in doing this as well), but being a piece of shite doesn’t mean that he should have been arrested for a post the Sheriff deemed could be taken as a threat against a local school with the same name as the school in his post/meme that was from another state and involved in a school shooting.
I am not sure how the judge/magistrate and prosecutor are not caught up in this unless the sheriff just pushed completely fraudulent evidence or description of actions being charged for. Seems like both rubber stamped charge and level of bail as a school threat which based on article isn’t remotely close to being the case or even close to being mistaken for a threat by others (have never actually seen the actual meme or post and only going by article’s description of the post).

While it was in response to shooting the arrest & post were referencing a school shooting which the sheriff ignorantly decided was a threat or could be seen as threat against a local school with the same name.
I don’t think that makes situation better as school threat angle likely isn’t used for any non-Kirk post, and in fact it’s probably worse to see a law about a school threat be manipulated like that.
But I don’t agree with others trying to lump this bad arrest in with those who lost jobs or had posts censored by private companies for actually cheering Kirk’s murder due to politics and creating threats against others with same views by calling for more to get the same as Kirk.

The meme that led to his arrest featured an image of President Donald Trump alongside the words, "We have to get over it," captioned with, "This seems relevant today..." The meme explained that the quote was originally said by Trump in 2024, following a school shooting at Perry High School in Iowa.
However, the arrest warrant was based on the "absurd notion" that the meme could be interpreted as a threat against Perry County High School in Tennessee, FIRE said.
Furthermore, the organization noted that Bushart did not create or alter the meme.
Weems told news outlets that the meme did not actually lead investigators to believe there was a real threat. However, he stated that the case hinged on how some people could potentially interpret it as a threat to a local school.

The Observer reviewed several photos of other athletes who participated in the state championships Saturday and found many had similar celebrations to the one that got Mallard Creek disqualified.
Does the Observer state that it was the others’ second violation of the rule? Or does it at least state whether or not they receive a warning for similar actions before finishing the race? There is no point in bringing up not getting a disqualification if those others had not received a first warning before these gestures.
Quote from article not rule book:
quote:
By this national rule, athletes are not permitted to celebrate, hold up their hands in victory or clench fists while crossing the finish line or completing a trial. Additionally, the rule says a runner must complete the activity before any celebration begins.
It seems like the key question is about the first violation and it’s warning. If not valid then he just gets a warning for breaking the rules for the 1600 relay event and is not disqualified for a 2nd violation of the rule, and he did break the rule on the relay regardless of whether you agree with the rule or not.
They are also saying they were not given a warning or made aware of the first violation. That could be BS, but it is the first violation and it’s subsequent warning that should be appealed for whether a rule was truly broken and/or whether a warning was properly given and communicated and not the violation he committed later before finishing the 1600 relay as that was obviously against the rules.

how has this data not been posted yet? The entire school year is over.
Even though it seemed to be delayed well past the fall census date the LSU website does have a lot of data for fall 2025 including the overall average ACT score for the entire incoming freshmen class, census reports, and some other reporting in GUI dashboards that seem to have some crossover to the common data set; but the official common data set report for the incoming 2025 fall new freshmen class (actually nothing for fall of 2025 yet) has not posted yet which is where I have found the ACT/SAT submission rate %s for the new/first time fall freshman enrollees in the past. It’s been revised in the spring in the past, but the specific reporting I used is based on the fall census numbers and doesn’t require spring census data (which seems late as well) or end of spring data.

If recent years are an indication LSU will admit close to 70% of them, and around 20% of the admitted will actually end up enrolling at LSU in the fall. Also, if following the past 2 falls whites will make up less than 50% of the new incoming 2026 fall freshman class enrollees (49.96% of incoming 2024 fall freshman class & 48.6% of incoming 2025 fall freshman class). The 2024 fall freshman class was down to 47% submission rate of ACTs or SATs to be considered for admissions and scholarships. The particular common data set report that includes the ACT/SAT submission rates of new freshman enrollees - FIRST-TIME, FIRST-YEAR (Freshman) ADMISSION - has still not been posted online for the fall of 2025, and I can’t find the same data in its new dashboards yet.

The State really needs a constitutional amendment (or as part of a new constitution) to allow for creation of independent school districts, similar to Texas.
That needs to be part of the next push. It for sure needs to happen with EBR as it doesn’t have a parish wide school district and hasn’t for awhile. For EBR it can be done independently of actually creating a new school district, but the parish needs more flexibility to divide out than having to get constitutional amendments. They will have to decide if rest of state is hesitant or not about changing constitution for rest of parishes to either push statewide or just for push for parishes that no longer have a single parish school district covering the entire parish like EBR.
Texas put in certain requirements/restrictions to make sure rural areas were taken care which is partly why the Frisco school district goes into cities of Plano and McKinney (maybe another) and school districts of McKinney, Prosper, and Lewisville go in the city of Frisco. Little Elm is mixed in, but I forget how. Districts set up and then cities grew and filled in later. It was a little dicey when another city could approve a bunch of apartments and flood schools faster than planned, but for urban/suburban areas it’s better than parish or county wide school districts.
I feel like the entire EBR parish would be better off if they had just let the SE Baton Rouge school district start back in 2013.

This is not a state issue, this is a parish issue. Period!
It should have become only a parish issue once EBRSS no longer covered the entire parish with Baker but for sure after the large chunks Zachary and Central were later taken from it. A separate constitutional amendment should have been made freeing the parish of this burden of EBRSS being protected as a full parish school board and district, or a clause doing the same should have been added to Zachary’s, Central’s, or StG’s attempted amendment.
To overcome both state and especially parish vote I would have had the vote in November even if that meant start date would have been pushed to fall of 2028.
You had idiots who played on fear of new taxes and race card. You could tell the posters on TD opposed to the district were all about some personal interest or fear of change or being left behind, and they were not thinking about what was the best thing for education in the parish. Ignorance and apathy won out over common sense.
Anyone living in StG who voted against this voted against helping property values as being able to sell local and neighborhood schools to developers, businesses, and new parents. It would not have passed anyway, but the ignorance is strong with them.
They also get to keep paying the same amount of taxes which mostly go to schools outside of StG and keep being beholden to the whims of the majority black voters in the city of BR in regards to any future taxes, standards of public schools and students, and who gets mapped to the schools in the city. The entire area of their shitty school district gets to remain the same with same crappy leadership and basically controlled by black voters in BR.
For StG not to vote in favor regardless of turnout shows what shite stains Broome and her ilk pushed into the StG area over the last 5 years while draining it of its tax revenue. Magnet student parents were not enough to do this. The city seemingly has a lot more problems than it did back in 2019 or maybe even realized.
Also, how long before that elementary school the EBRSS board tried to dangle as planned but not happening if new district formed gets scuttled or moved to just outside of StG boundaries as a just in case this gets attempted again in a couple of years…

I expect the left to try and one up each other on wokism, but how does the law even allow someone on a student visa to get elected to be a national representative???
Before posting I searched and of course Wiki had a page made for this trans a day or two after the election:
quote:

Seems like the Green Party won representation and had selected him to represent a seat they won. The Green Party is claiming being in the country with a visa and being a citizen of the commonwealth (India) is enough.
If Scotland actually allows all legally present citizens of the commonwealth to serve including ones that are basically symbolic members they are just stupid. Can they vote in elections as well? It would be ridiculous to being to serve and vote in parliament but not be able to vote in elections for parliament, but I am not sure if they grant them ability to vote as well.
quote:
In 1949 India announced its intention to become a republic, which would have required its withdrawal from the Commonwealth under the existing rules, but at a meeting of Commonwealth heads of government in London in April 1949 it was agreed that India could continue its membership if it accepted the British crown as only “the symbol of the free association” of Commonwealth members
It would just seem like a big tip off for not being allowed to vote or represent the country as a member of parliament would be requiring a student visa in the first place and requiring another visa to stay and represent.
Scotland is full of wokesters bending the knee to the left and people who just don’t give a shite about local politics or voting until the govt comes knocking on their door. I question whether the later realizes that through devolved government of the UK the Scottish parliament actually has some power to make their lives miserable and isnt as big of a joke as it used to be.
