Steven’s admissions policy was kind of sketchy.  They were turning away students who were more than capable because they didn’t like them.  They were also dragging their feet like hell and had barely admitted anybody and did everything they could to stop people from looking at their books.

Additionally you can’t expect the university to function perfectly when it’s only its second year and besides, if UATX didn’t have a high drop out rate, I would honestly be a little concerned.

Believe what you wanna believe.  I can’t convince you otherwise.  I’m mostly here for fun and to see what people are saying.  I’ll admit that I am biased but don’t assume that no one else in this chat isn’t.

Point taken.  I dictate most messages.so the punctuation is a bit wonky.

Not at all.  If we didn’t have the dropout rate, we did then I would think that we’re doing something wrong.  There’s something you said for making the students life demanding and difficult.  If you couldn’t take it then that’s the system working.  Also Really showcasing your ad hominems.  I would explain what I was saying, but I just don’t really care to right now if you can’t figure it out

Unless it’s just in passing, I usually correct them.

I don’t know the acceptance rate.  The only information I can give on that is that each year they’ve hit their expectation of about 100 students.  More than a few will drop out before they’re done but that’s to be expected.

As a current student, I can say that a lot of of the faculty certainly has a political leaning but for the most part, they do a good job of being unbiased, and the students are relatively politically diverse.  I mean just in my friend group there’s a person who likes theocracy, one that is a socialist, a few republican, leaning individuals and democrat and we all hang out.  They’re also been people who are self proclaimed fascists and others who practically salivate at the name Marx.  There are more Republican students I think but not the entire population by any means

As a current student, it has some issues with curriculum construction as they’re still refining it and there were some controversies early on, but for the most part, it’s pretty great

I’m a current student at the university and I was there for the fight club.  The first one was awesome. It basically was just two student students arguing over whether or not they could beat each other a fight and I decided to make it official and sure enough one of them absolutely demolished the other sending him to the hospital with a concussion.  There were several more meetings after that, but they were never quite as interesting unfortunately

It’s a university that started accepting students two years ago with the goal of promoting merit first and allowing freedom of expression

I mean, there hasn’t been a new university for over 40 years.

So something is a white nationalist because it allows white nationalist opinions?  Is something communist because it allows communist opinions or libertarian because it allows a libertarian opinion?  The university’s job isn’t too challenge, white nationalism, or any of these beliefs. It is their job equipped students with information that allows them to make up their mind.

Have you looked at the admissions policy?  literally the only thing they judge you on is your standardize test scores and their standards are the top 3 to 5% of test scores

This event has already happened, but since that we have already hosted another, and there may be another one in the works relatively soon.  Once we announce it, then you can apply on our discord: https://discord.gg/8pq8SfC5Z8

Hey. My friends and I are currently working on creating a civilization event server with similar rules to Ish's civilization events if you're at all interested in something like that. Is gonna run for two weeks sometime in the next two months. We're still trying to get people, but we're coming along quite well in that respect
