What’s the average, or at least the past few years? How does this compare with other years percentage-wise - is overall enrollment up or down? Maybe it’s usually 20 every other year, maybe it’s usually 200 🤷‍♂️ mostly useless without context

EDIT: there’s a little more in the actual article, at least

Harvard Law enrolled 19 first-year Black students, or 3.4 percent of the class, the lowest number since the 1960s, according to the data from the American Bar Association. Last year, the law school’s first-year class had 43 Black students, according to an analysis by The New York Times.

“This is the lowest number of Black entering first-year students since 1965,” he added, pointing to numbers compiled by the Center on the Legal Profession at Harvard, where he also serves as faculty director. That year, there were 15 entering Black students. Since 1970, there have generally been 50 to 70 Black students in Harvard Law’s first-year class, he said.

Russell Brand is a grifter?!? Whaaaat? How could he have changed so radically?!?

I’ve never actually seen a cordless magic wand 🤔

I wouldn’t care if he warmed up tuna sandwiches in the office microwave.

Too far. Way too far.

Since you clearly missed it, “spaz” was just a typo of /u/spez, the CEO of reddit.

This wasn’t the plan all along? They were never going to throw away cheap labor, you idiots, they just wanted slaves.

The technology is out. While something should be done on that side of things, it also doesn’t remove the technology from existence - you will still need other protections.

I’ve read that he was fairly right-wing in all of his social media… is that not the case?

Its not real.

By a worker? I thought for sure this would be some self-righteous customer 😑 fucking class traitor

There was a guy who hid in the bushes of a golf course for like half a day. He didn’t get any shots off, but was pretty close to before someone spotted the barrel poking out of the bush.

Weren’t they both registered Republicans?

Money doesn’t fix trauma, and childhood trauma is rarely fully healed. The kids did nothing wrong, and you should feel bad for them.

Has the Starbucks guy actually been confirmed as the same person? It looked like clearly a different jacket and backpack, I assumed that was either an accomplice or just an unfortunate lookalike, but I suppose he could have changed or it could just be odd lighting tricks.

lol @ thinking reddit is anonymous

A 20% drop in use on American Thanksgiving doesn’t seem even remotely outlandish to me

Why isn’t he trying to fix this broken law rather than just pardoning his own son who’s in his 50s?

Do you not understand what powers the President is given? Executive orders can only do so much, and it’s irrelevant when the next administration can simply undo them in a month.

I don’t care about this pardon because it’s a crime around bullshit that affects nobody, and has only gone the way it has due to political nonsense. The vast majority of drug offenses are similar.

I disagree with Trump’s pardons because he has literally surrounded himself with career criminals, asked them to do criminal things, and pardoned them when they got in trouble for it.

Only one of these two is institutionalized corruption.

The same way you be a “good religious person” - don’t fucking proselytize. It’s your choice, and that’s great, but you don’t need to force it onto others.

…but we are reliant on other countries. We import over 15% of our food and these changes are going to drastically reduce our output. We will only start relying more on other countries.
