Three former Dartmouth College professors turned the school's Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences into a "21st Century Animal House," where female students were subjected to rape and sexual harassment, a federal lawsuit alleges.
The National Coalition for Men (NCFM) has filed a Title IX federal civil rights complaint against the University of Pennsylvania. The complaint lists twenty-two groups at Penn as being discriminatory towards men. The Office of Civil Rights (OCR) in the Department of Education is reviewing the complaint. If it believes there is enough evidence suggesting possible sex discrimination by any of these groups, it will launch a full investigation into the groups that allegedly violate Title IX provisions.
The NCFM believes that “[t]he University of Pennsylvania is in violation of Title IX because it offers resources, funding, fellowships, and scholarships that are available to women only, even though men are a minority both nationwide [42%] and at the University of Pennsylvania [47%, incoming class of 2021].”
And, you know, there are more than 250,000 deaths by “medical mistakes” per year. That’s more than two and a half times all non-negligent homicides, suicides, and auto accidents combined. Maybe you should be worrying more about that than about something you actually know little about, like gun policy.
Quick thinking. I think my code word should be "ollieollieoxenberg"
According to the little girl, the man shielded his face while telling Maddison that her brother had “been in a serious accident” and he had been instructed to come pick her up. Maddison immediately asked him what the family’s code word was.
When the stranger didn’t know the answer, he blanked and immediately drove away, prompting Maddison to run home immediately and tell her grandmother what had happened.
HBR asks: Do older workers have an obligation to retire?
Should companies force older workers out to make space for younger workers? Can companies still get their money's worth from older, more expensive workers? Did the Baby Boom hog all the good higher-level jobs, thus depriving Gen-X and Millennials of opportunities for advancement? What are the long-term costs to society and to the company of a loss of advancement opportunities for younger workers?

New Zealand police are investigating claims that Anne-Marie Brady, a prominent academic and critic of China’s influence abroad, has been targeted again, this time having her car sabotaged.
Brady, an expert in Chinese politics at the University of Canterbury in Christchurch, had her home and office burgled in February, with computers, mobile phones and USB sticks targeted. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said at the time the government would be “be taking stock and taking action”.
