Ballot set for Penn State Board of Trustees Elections:
- Thread starter PSUFTG
- Start date
You're more extreme than Barry. I really like the Patriot League idea. I've decided. Thank you.
Write-in: Nitwit/Class of 19??
Museums are wonderful things, but you don't build them in the middle of nowhere where few people go to see the permanent collections or attract any major exhibitions.
For now. Until my next OUTRAGE.
-inducing, retarded post. Like this one.
“If you build it, they will come.”
Museum of Dreams, coming to a theater near you, Summer 2024.
FIFY.
The original attendance projection was equal to the of the Frick.....on Fifth Avenue....in NYC...with a collection that Fats would have a wet dream over, assuming that he can still have wet dreams. It has since been revised downward.
I'm sure it's just a misunderstanding.
Give 'em hell Barry! I think that sounds like an old presidential campaign slogan. (Truman not Obama youngins). What's old can be new again.
Since Barry was banned from the old board, you can’t search for his posts. But you can find replies to his posts.
The two examples below, where he clearly calls two posters (including me) retarded, are from https://bwi.forums.rivals.com/threads/joe-moorhead-may-be-fired-by-miss-state.257414/.
They are both “in context” and completely unacceptable.

Obviously a misunderstanding.
Since his spinmeisters haven’t seen these posts yet, I’ll try to help….he might have been mad, and everyone knows that it’s ok for a member of the Board of Trustees to call others a “retard” if he’s mad, as long as he supports keeping tuition in check. Everything was taken out of context, and you’re a liar if you don’t defend Barry’s prior words.
Barry has devotees who defend his every word. Think about it. He's almost a cult leader. Well, there are only two or three devotees, but it's a start.
We’ve been called a cult before. A cult needs a leader. And if we’re retards, so be it. We’re talking Penn State here.
I hate us, and people who look like us.
Can a “more diverse” student body provide the tuition-based money necessary to keep the bloated “Old Main Money Machine” still turning?
Go woke….Go broke.
PSU as an academic institution is unsustainable with your prescribed business model.
I think enriching the lives of the students is the core mission of the university. If you can’t understand that, I pity you. And if our museum was an outstanding museum, it would have many more visitors, just as if our university was stronger academically, it would have more applicants. And it would be worth the higher tuition. That’s why better schools can charge more and still have a zillion more applicants. Easy Peasy. MIT turns them away in droves and charges over $53k in tuition alone. We are their safety school, easy to get into and cheap.

It’s readily apparent that Antonio Shelton is “intellectually challenged”. The retard label is deserving.
Hey, that’s me!!!
In defense of Barry, he did put it in parantheses and include a smiley face so it may have all been in fun.
Yep. Welcome to the club!Hey, that’s me!!!

I have two adult sons on the autism spectrum, one who also has other developmental disabilities and has been called “retarded” more times than I care to remember. It’s hurtful, and no adult should ever call anyone that, ever.
I don’t know. You’d have to ask my wife. Hay Oooooo!Isn’t it fun when threads become combative ?
Bad Sperm?
What’s combative about saying a grown man shouldn’t call anyone a retard?
BTW, that got posted before I was done typing and, as we all know, no delete button.
Perhaps you should stop criticizing others for their terminology and focus on more important things in life.
Wish all you like, but PSU's museum will never have a permanent collection or attract exhibitions that will make it a destination. Enriching student life is a wonderful thing, but what percentage will ever visit? Hard to beleive that PSU doesn't have better uses for the money.
He isn’t very smart (although he thinks he is), and he’s angry. For those two reasons, he has a lot in common with many who support him. Remind you of anyone?
C’mon man. Just admit that you’re solely voting for Maribeth Roman Schmidt because you think she looks like a “Hot Karen”, complete with the cropped do.
I’d link her photo to corroborate my point, but she’s apparently copyright-protected all of her public images. PSU’s BOT needs more gems like her.
ps. I don’t care who wins. PSU as an institution is dying a slow death, principally because of insider greed and BOT candidates desiring to suckle the teets of Old Main and dine at the Final Trough.

So how much of your looming estate is being directed to PSU? You always avoid this question.
My initial guess is 0.0%
I support several worthy causes with my philanthropy confidentially. I enjoy helping people and I am fortunate to be able to afford it. I also donate my time through various volunteer activities on campus. How about you?

I have a younger sister with Down syndrome, worked several years with adults with disabilities and work in an elementary school now. In my current role I often have to speak with children (5-11 years old) about their word choice. They usually get it.
In further defense of Barry, I’m guessing his use of the word is an attempt to be funny and shocking but it comes off- to me at least- as just ignorant.

"Barron's Folly" aka the new art museum is his attempt at leaving a legacy on campus. It's not needed and it's a poor use of money. Shame on the BOT for not killing this project
Not so much ignorant as condescending or belittling. I think he knows exactly what he’s saying.
The bar has been set. What will Neeli’s “barren, hold my beer” legacy project be? I can’t wait.
I would hope that Neeli, like barren, laughs at other people’s money.
Yeah, quite possibly. His doubling down on it and attempt to parse semantics leans in that direction. I guess I should have said, “As a possible defense of Barry”…….
But of course. Take on several extra thousand in debt to maybe visit a museum that at most costs a few bucks for all the other adults with money that visit it. It's a life lesson that builds character. Consider yourself blessed to be so lucky and to have such great and caring leadership.
Or “Nitwit”. I used to have a sense of humor, but I misplaced when I joined this board.
