A follow up to me earlier post about regional public universities. Engines of opportunity, not gatekeepers. We all should make these valuable institutions the face of higher education.

MS. TEEFEY & SELENA GOMEZ-RARE-SUPERSTAR. TCI GALLERY SPRING 2024 THEMES. CRYPTOCURRENCY & REYGITONIUM-G TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I ABSOLUTELY SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH CRYPTOCURRENCY: REYGITONIUM-G I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY THE INFANT DEMOCRATIC-CAPITALISTIC MINDS OF TODAY BLAME USA GOVERNMENT. THEN IS ANY GOVERNMENT TO BE BLAMED FOR HOMELESS PROBLEMS PLAGUING THE WORLD.? NO. GOD KNOWS HEADACHES USA GOVERNMENT HAVE WITH THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS. THE NEW WORLD PRACTICALLY SHOCK TO WITNESS. PEOPLE ONLY WORKING TOGETHER FOR A COMMON GOAL. "IN THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS." DOESN'T THAT ALSO INCLUDE THE HOMELESS. THE HOMELESS ARE OUT THERE. ARE YOU.? HOMELESS.. OPPORTUNITY MISUNDERSTOOD. The modern economic system is a market economy, which is a capitalist economy where people, not the government--NOT THE GOVERNMENT--own most businesses. In a capitalist economy, prices allocate capital and labor between competing uses, and capital assets can be privately owned and controlled. https://lnkd.in/eB98Jnv9 EXAMPLE, IF YOU NEED TO RAISE MONEY FOR ANY REASON OR MORE SO LETS SAY THE "HOMELESS" PROBLEM WHICH IS BELIEVED TO BE TIME & MONEY CONSUMING BUT IN ONE DIRECTION TOWARD THE HOMELESS. HOWEVER CRYPTOCURRENCY CAN POSSIBLE ALLOWS AN EXPENDITURE OF CURRENCY TO BENEFIT ALL WHO USES THE CRYPTO & REGARDLESS OF HOW IT'S CONSUMED. THEREFORE IF A CRYPTO HOMELESS CURRENCY REYGITONIUM-G EXISTED IT'S MORE HIGHLY LIKELY THAT THE HOMELESS PROBLEM CAN BE VANQUISHED BECAUSE CURRENCY-FINANCES IT'S ALWAYS AVAILABLE TO BE TAPPED INTO FOR HOMELESS RESOLUTIONS. REYGITONIUM-G: EACH COUNTRY GOVERNMENT INITIAL $1-DOLLAR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO OF 8-BILLION EARTH CITIZENS. THEREAFTER GLOBALLY ANYBODY CAN INVEST IN THE CRYPTOCURRENCY REYGITONIUM-G. OR CONTINUE HIDING THE HOMELESS WHEN A POLITICAL LEADER VISITS AMERICA. CLOSING COMMENT: THE DAMNEDEST CRAZIEST FUNNIEST EMBARRASSING ABOUT THE HOMELESS CHAOS IS ANY EXCUSE AS TO WHY HOMELESS EXIST. HENCEFORTH CONSIDER USA TRILLIONS IN DEBT & 6,120 HOSPITALS SCATTERED AROUND THE USA & MANY COUNTRIES ASKING FOR FOREIGN AID IN THE TRILLIONS & YOU TALKING EXCUSES.

As a proud Latino Aggie, and DEI advocate, I find myself both perplexed and disappointed by the latest events at Texas A&M University, the largest public university in our nation. Six core values lie at the heart of what Texas A&M represents: loyalty, integrity, excellence, leadership, respect, and selfless service. While the mission of preserving, protecting, and perpetuating the Texas Aggie Culture is admirable on the surface, a closer examination reveals an uncomfortable truth. Recent political interferences have begun to overshadow these core values, creating a rift in the very fabric of our educational community. With a rapidly growing population of diverse students, including over 25 percent who are Latino, our university should be a beacon of inclusivity and empowerment. But, instead, the shadow of politics looms large, threatening to undermine the growth and progress we have fought so hard to achieve. The impact on the vibrant and diverse student body, who should be the university's primary focus, cannot be ignored. I implore the leadership of Texas A&M University to remember its core values, to resist the political pressures that risk compromising our integrity, and to recommit to fostering an environment where every student, regardless of their background, can thrive. #AggiePride #CoreValues #EducationWithoutInterference
