How do you kill free speech? There are a few methods, some answers, and here are a couple of examples.

Answer number 1:

On the eighth of September of 1960, Fidel Castro passed a law to stifle free speech in Cuba by empowering neighbors to turn against neighbors. 

On that date, Castro created the block-to-block Committees for the Defense of the Marxist-Leninist Cuban Revolution. 

Castro said, “In each block a committee, in each neighborhood the Revolution —one block per barrio, one barrio per village, the country fighting for the Revolution.”

The reference to a State of Florida “Brain Drain” is that individuals are planning on moving out.

A brain drain can result from turmoil within an area, favorable professional opportunities in other places, or a desire to seek a higher standard of living. 

Once upon a time, I began my higher education in the Sunshine State. I also got married and my children were born in Florida. Finally, many family members still live there. But that was before #MoRonDisaster began his term of statewide destruction.

He is included in the later Dialogues of Saint Gregory, but these are sketches to illustrate miraculous elements of his career.

Being out of the country changes any student, and they make sure you are aware of this fact, no matter what.

Students are like a sunburst. Some are brighter than others, especially the quirky ones, but I love them all as long as they participate constructively.

They will probably refuse a beer claiming they no longer sip anything but wine local to their site and explaining how they are disgusted by American drinking culture. Ask them to accompany you on a shopping trip

YES & NO

After Ni Hao “hello” learning to say ‘yes’ and “no” in Chinese could be valuable. Learning to say “yes” is usually one of the first things you learn when studying a new language. Unfortunately, in Chinese, there’s no direct equivalent to the English “yes.” Except, 是 (🔈 shì)!

If you take the time to Google around long enough, you learn that teaching college students can be an exercise in avoiding tripwires.

Religion, Gender, and most recently long-established historical facts are being contested and are turning into hot-button issues that become costly actions to suppress but should have superseded academic freedom, soon after the classroom sessions have ended and experienced professors are ousted.
