đŸ‡ș🇾📚 Why college freshmen are heading south

This shift, it goes without saying, can’t be explained by a single new pool, even one as magical as LSU’s lazy river. Even so, the new waterway does speak to a fundamental shift in how young people conceive of what college involves. The diploma, increasingly, is a product, and colleges sell experiences, credentials — and joy. And if that offers vast opportunities for “football schools” like LSU, with their sororities and their laidback Southern charm, their more po-faced Northern cousins look set to suffer, especially if they continue to dismiss the white middle classes that used to fill their halls.

Another piece of the puzzle here is comparing how universities on either side of the Mason-Dixon Line have dealt with DEI. Right across the North, students were forced to listen to fatuous lectures on white supremacy and anti-racism. They were told to read Robin DiAngelo and Ta-Nehisi Coates. They were told to “do better” and to “do the work” and to “be a good ally”. These students were told, in short, that they were the problem, no matter what they had individually done. The privilege they enjoyed was systemic, wicked, total. Talking with several of my former students, they describe “cultural bingo” games designed to raise “awareness”. As one of my more thick-skinned former students put it: “Starting off the year being among the worst of the worst was pretty hilarious.”

Generally speaking, the South avoided such manias, even pushing back in law. In 2022, for instance, Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill banning DEI across all public Florida colleges. It’s a cultural fork in the road that endures to this day. While many prestigious Northern schools featured tarp-blue “tent cities” in support of Palestinians last year, their Southern counterparts were too busy with the college football season. That’s exactly the kind of “experience” many kids dream of, with their circus-like atmosphere and kegs. Having the former, at any rate, codes weird and alienating — while the latter codes normal.

Euthanasia

16,499 people died by euthanasia in Canada in 2024, accounting for 5.1% of all deaths in the country.

According to the latest report on “medical assistance in dying” (MAiD) from Health Canada released at the end of last month, there was a 6.9% increase in state-assisted deaths in Canada in 2024.

In 2024, although assisted suicide is permitted, in which the person who wishes to end their own life self-administers the lethal substance, there was not a single case of assisted suicide. Instead, every single person who died under Canada’s MAiD programme died by euthanasia. In 2023, there were fewer than five instances of assisted suicide.

There have been a total of 76,475 instances of euthanasia and assisted suicide since they were made legal in Canada in 2016.

Euthanasia

Posters have appeared on the New York subway offering would-be parents the opportunity to "genetically optimise" their future baby.

By signing up to their $8,999 service, Nucleus Genomics will profile the full DNA sequence of up to 20 embryos for couples undergoing IVF.

The New York start-up's slick app then allows would-be parents to review their brood for known disease genes, conditions like autism and ADHD, as well as traits like eye colour, height, and intelligence.

Peter Thiel, who shares similar views to Musk on the topic, supported the start-up through his Founders Fund. – Article

OpenAI's Sam Altman has also invested in gene-editing startup, Preventive, to eliminate gene-hereditary diseases from babies.

The first successful IVF (test tube baby) occurred in 1978. The place, perhaps appropriately, considering English author Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, was England.

The irreversible transformations to the human genome will make the 4IR a pandora’s box.

AI INFLUENCERS

AI influencers are now boasting personalities, backstories and even making ill-advised decisions

Aitana Lopez is an AI influencer who makes as much as $11,000 per month.

She’s part of a new breed of digitally created avatars winning the battle for the public’s attention, joined by the likes of chart topping “singers” Solomon Ray and Breaking Rust and “blonde bombshell” Mia Zelu, who stole the show at the Wimbledon tennis tournament — even though she wasn’t physically there.

Aitana has made promo videos for Amazon, while huge global brands such as Calvin Klein, Prada, Samsung and YouTube have all used AI influencers.

AI generated Christian recording artist Solomon Ray topped the Billboard gospel charts with his song “Find Your Rest.” He’s cleverly billed as a “Mississippi-made soul singer,” and has over 500,000 monthly listeners on Spotify.

One of the most followed AI influencers, Lil Miquela, caused serious backlash when she posted about being diagnosed ...
