Conservative judges say they won’t hire Columbia graduates | Dan Abrams Live 

@1020donny you should do research instead of saying these banalitiess. As for me, I can see it on an example of my own engineering company: 15 years ago lvy League graduate was a must if you wanted to apply for a position. Now? It's not even an advantage. It's common knowledge that being in the Ivy League is more about making connections than getting educated

​@1020donny I'm a lawyer who worked in one of the big global firms (Coudert Brothers). Large law firms may not be the best example because they tend to be very conservative - or behind the times. But I'd say in the last few years ivy league has SLOWLY been losing its caché in law firms. For a variety of reasons. But undeniably one of the reasons is that all of this goofing around with admissions, grades and standards is starting to make employers see ivy graduates as a less 'reliable product' than before. However, if you are a white male applying for large law firms today, it may be more important than ever to be ivy league. My friend worked for Skadden an absolutely legendary firm in the M&A field. This year he applied to Linklaters and they told him to his face "You are a middle aged white male and in the current environment it is difficult to undertake a hire with your profile." I know this sounds like some fearmongering BS story by an anti-DEI nut but I promise this is dead real. He is a close friend for 20 years, not a liar and didn't even need the job as he is doing well. But things have gotten to the point where a major employer can tell you to your face "Sorry but you are white and that's a problem."

@@Tati8796 Correct! Elite private schools and colleges have always been about networking, education is a distant second.

ivy league? rather a plank 🥳 In old trains the third class was called the wooden class as it was very, very basic. To my understanding the so-called ivy league is not able to filter out truthful information from all the propaganda, that is so important for every future job, hard to learn that now at this age if one did not grow up building the filter for good and bad information. In every business the success is dependable on that skill. Imagine a board meeting when no one is able to filter out bad information, that company will not exist for longer.

​@@bluecoffee8414Well if this story is actually true, then he should sue them for discrimination!! I have worked at several Law Firms. I was treated very well. But times were different back then. Everything right now, is just really bad for most people. I feel bad for your friend.

But you're not, you most likely are not even someone who regularly uses legal services no less legal teams. I do and we don't usually use Ivy League grads as they usually work for management side firms and will continue to and we represent blue collar workers.

Sadly, my daughter attended Columbia. But she is jewish and does not support what's happening currently. I do understand the inclination though and some level of cancelation has to happen.

@@1020donnyhow noble. So you'd hire non-Ivies who openly support a Pro-Terrorism organization like Hamas?

Oh no, they can't work in Texas. Also add them to a banned list in the fucking moon... Just as relevant to Columbia grads!

Ummm, I think you need to take a look at what year 9/11 happened and the average age of Palestinians. I highly doubt babies and toddlers were burning American flags that day. 🤦🏼‍♀️

The problem is this is what they are being taught in the majority of universities.

Not just Columbia. Not even close..

Good for these Federal Judges. I am so proud of them for standing up for MORALS AND ETHICS. SOMETHING NO ONE AT COLUMBIA SEEMS TO HAVE.

If they apply for a job..they will find our tby doing a backround check..pretty easy

So graduates who not only did NOT participate but actually OPPOSED the protests -- INCLUDING JEWISH STUDENTS -- will be discriminated against! This is America?

⁠@@zorkwork3841they still won’t know if they were participating because of the mask! Plain and simple.

Exactly 💯 I literally can't even watch the Interviews with these STUDENT PROTESTERS because it literally makes me sick and disgusted.

Not to shock you or anything but not everyone from Columbia University participated in the protests.

For protesting

What about the law graduates that have nothing to do with the protests, including the Jewish students? Why should they be punished?

There are no gods only inside your head.

You think colleges have ever been in control of AMERICAN STUDENTS?

​@@mananimal3644THEY shouldn't punish the Jewish Students. They should be hired if they are qualified.

REALLY? Did they mention how students should react to over 20,000 dead women and children civilians?

Sorry. Judges never mention how students should react to over 20,000 dead women and children. Guess they just don't care?

exactly, what the heck is this 🤨

does anyone think that Jew hating Hamas Youth are capable of interpreting the law fairly?

@@billaveda6408 troll harder

@@billaveda6408 Yes.

@@colorbugoriginals4457 It's well documented that Israel has troll farms that post RU-vid comments. Like call center style cubicles of people doing propaganda.

It starts a PRECEDENT. THESE FEDERAL JUDGES WILL BAN STUDENTS FROM COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY THEN OTHER JUDGES WILL FOLLOW AND DO THE SAME THING! JUST LIKE JEWISH BILLIONAIRE, BILL ACKMAN. HE IS A HARVARD ALUMNI. HE PULLED ALL OF HIS DONATIONS FROM HARVARD AND STATED THAT HE WILL NEVER HIRE ANYONE FROM HARVARD, AGAIN. THERE ARE A LOT OF BILLIONAIRE JEWISH MEN PULLING DONATIONS FROM THESE IVY LEAGUE SCHOOLS. IT WILL SNOWBALL. THESE STUDENTS WILL BE WORKING AT MCDONALD'S 😂😂😂

🙄 Comprehension is not your friend 😂

So what. You never consider the 20,000 dead women and children from Israel bombings. Guess some folks just don't have humanity in their hearts.

@@daysrcdays 20k wow where did u get that number mate? Let me guess, Humus stats which they themselves admit it’s wrong. Syria Ammad taken more last 10y compared to this whole drama. Genoc* in Sudan, Yemen, Armenia. Ethn1c cl3@ns1ng in Nigeria..don’t bloody tell me what’s happening coz my ppl when thru hell for 600years during occupation in my homeland..now p1ss off n learn history, actual ones not from tik tok..

@@NafGGMU What an incorhent response! 20,000 from CNN, ABC, NBC, FOX NEWS, OAN NEWS, CBS, BRITBART NEWS , NEWS MAX! Where you get your information ONLINE lol.

They certainly can try but college of choice isn't exactly a protected class. I certainly don't agree with these judges but a lawsuit wouldn't hold up in court.

Ha ha ha.

But Nazis marching in Florida are ok then.

But Fascists in Florida are ok

Nice try, but no. Those students weren’t asking for an extension because they were prevented from going to class and the library, those students were asking for an extension because they didn’t like that the protest was broken up by police. Big difference.

nope

Like, seriously. Not all Columbia graduates participated in these protests.

accusations are one thing. proving it in court is another.

@@billaveda6408 so your position is it's okay as long as you can't prove it in court? So cover your tracks if you want to get away with crime, then it's okay?

civil rights violation? employers can choose their employees. get back to the library and study the law.
