I am a patriot. Being a patriot also means that I support free speech. And since I support free speech, I find myself drawn sites like Juicy Campus. Their mission statement reads: “We were founded on August 1, 2007 with the simple mission of enabling online anonymous free speech on college campuses.”
Right on.
It seems like an invaluable source of unbiased college campus information. Until you actually start reading what people are writing.
Here’s a smattering of topics:
-Sluttiest Girls at [insert college name here], Hottest Freshman,
-Extra Toe: An informative topic outing names of people known to have extra “secret” appendages.
-Too Many [insert race here] on Campus
-[insert name] Has STD’s
The site has turned into something that lacks anything of substance. At least it continues to stand by its pledge to allow 100% uncensored free speech. Several campuses across the country are petitioning to have the site banned.The site also finds itself under investigation by authorities in New Jersey for comments admitting to abuse including rape.
I don’t anticipate the site shutting down any time soon even though it’s turned into nothing more than an outlet for absurdity. It’s all part of the cost of living in a country that supplies it’s citizens free speech.

But isn't it a shame that its citizens contribute to such a worthless load of crap?

Oh yes! It's disappointing, sad, frustrating, mind numbing, angering, and any other similar adjective….
…unfortunately, that's all part of freedom of speech. I guess we gotta take the good with the crap sometimes.

What this shows me is that the state of our educational system (including test scores, drop-out rates, etc.) probably has a lot less to do with funding and class room size than we have been lead (distracted?) to believe.
It's the old axiom of "garbage in, garbage out."
If anybody ever tells you, "anyone can get into college." Well, point them to that website and let them know just how right they are.
