• Christine O'Donnell on 'Orgy Rooms' at Colleges (Inside Higher Ed)
All eyes are on Christine O'Donnell, the Tea Party-backed candidate who won the Republican primary for U.S. Senate in Delaware on Tuesday. Among the various quotes from her past that surfaced on Wednesday were some views on coeducational dormitories. Salon found quotes she gave to The Washington Times in 2003, criticizing coeducational dormitories. The article excerpt:
"What's next? Orgy rooms? Menage a trois rooms?" asked Christine O'Donnell, spokeswoman for the Intercollegiate Studies Institute in Wilmington, Del., which publishes a college guide.
All this coedness is outside normal life, said Miss O'Donnell. "Most average American adults don't use coed bathrooms - if they had the option of a coed bathroom at a public restaurant, they wouldn't choose it." Coedness "is like a radical agenda forced on college students," she said.
• Low-Income Community-College Students Find Success at Selective 4-Year Colleges (Chronicle of Higher Education)
Low-income community-college students not only tend to excel academically but also often become student leaders after they transfer to a four-year college, according to a new report by the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation.
Those same students won over skeptical professors with their intellectual curiosity and appetite for extra work, the group said.
Those are some of the lessons learned three years after the foundation embarked on its Community College Transfer Initiative. The foundation is releasing a report today, titled "Partnerships That Promote Success: The Evaluation of the Community College Transfer Initiative," that highlights the various college programs and polices that contributed to student success. The report can be found at the foundation's Web site at www.jkcf.org….

But Christine is so gosh darn CUTE.
Does Don Wagner share his fellow tea partier O'Donnell's views on masturbation, sex outside of marriage and women serving in the armed forces?
And where's our SOCCCD orgy room?
Does she even know what a co-ed dorm IS? I went to college before this O'Donnell chick was BORN, and we had co-ed dorms even then. Wotta maroon.
What is it with these brainless republican women (yeah she's a tea partier but we know who she votes for oterwise) who somehow get votes? Angle, Bachman, and any blonde on Fox--what is it? ARRRGGHH
