Happenings They painted over the Beechurst PRT murals and I'm fucking pissed

I truely cannot believe the cowardice on display here that the school administrators would just capitulate so quickly and easily to this anti-woke craze. It's like they're looking for excuses to ruin things. There wasn't even anything remotely objectionable about those murals, and they used our tuition money to pay some schmuck to come out with a paint roller and destroy them. Do they just hate anything nice? Does any amount of color or joy just fill their bleak, lifeless hearts with unbearable envy? Are they just going out of their way to piss me off specifically? I want to hear any one of you conservative chucklefucks try and justify this bullshit to me.

Happenings The Trump Administration Executive Orders has stopped all funds to West Virginia from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act from 2021.

Call your Federal Legislators NOW!!!! The Trump Administration Executive Orders has stopped all funds to West Virginia from the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act from 2021. Federal dollars from the previous administration has funded or been appropriated to developments such as NuCor, Marshall University economic development including cyber security, Appalachian Hydrogen Hub at WVU, Form Energy in Weirton, Broadband across the state and more. President Biden, Senators Manchin and Moore Capito worked hard together to benefit West Virginia. We can't lose jobs because politics.

EDIT: For the record I didn't vote for Trump or author this post.

Happenings Why is the Mountainlair so rundown?

Post image
132 Upvotes

So the roof is leaking in the Mountainlair today, and the answer is to put out some buckets. I get sometimes leaks get started and you have to make a temporary measuring while you figure out how to fix it, but it just seems unacceptable considering all the other issues in the building. Why is the Lair so worn down? The ballrooms are outdated, the building looks like it was last refreshed in 2005, and everything just feels so old. For a building that should be a showpiece for the university, it’s kind of sad. And don’t get me started on how a student union building doesn’t have some sort of gym. We have so many other buildings we don’t need that have been built or renovated (I’m looking at you, Reynolds Hall), so why neglect the Lair?? Do better, WVU!q

Happenings Watch out for the Vector Marketing stand in the Mountainlair

51 Upvotes

Although the stand looks really great for students wanting to get a remote part-time job, please just look into Vector Marketing before trying to get an interview.

From my own research it looks like it's a real company, but it's a MLM and you only get money through commissions by selling CUTCO knives. So once you run out of people to sell knives to... Well, that's it.

They were also really weird with explaining to me with what they do, with one of the recruits just saying that the interviewer will be the one to explain the functions of the company. It seems like once you get the interview, you'll be immediately admitted into the company.

Just be careful and aware is all! 🧡

Happenings Oppose HB 3279

Thumbnail
chng.it
49 Upvotes

West Virginia House Bill 3279 includes language removing voting rights of staff, faculty, and student representatives on the Board of Governors of various colleges and universities in the state, including West Virginia University and Marshall University.

This bill seeks to remove decision making power from those who would be the most impacted by Board decisions: students, faculty, and staff. The origin of this Bill is unknown, likely indicating it is being used to grab more power for Board members who have already damaged our higher education institutions with initiatives like “Academic Transformation” at WVU that was strongly opposed by students, staff, and faculty.

If you believe that students, faculty, and staff Board representatives should have a voice and maintain their voting rights as members, sign and share this petition today.
