It costs a staggering $83,140 to send a student to Princeton University, and that’s just for one year. Four years of this august Ivy League school will set you back a cool $332,560, and just think: for that kind of money, you could have bought a brand-new Corvette convertible every year and had some spare change left over.
But Princeton has its benefits: you may not be able to tool around in the glorious sunshine with the wind blowing your hair back, but for all that dough, Princeton will take your thoughtful, intelligent son and turn him into a prancing, preening, children’s-innocence-stealing drag queen. And they will do that in just one year, in case you can’t afford all four. Hey, it’s worth $83,140 to get in step with the times, isn’t it?
The College Fix reported Thursday that Princeton has launched a “new ‘Drag University’ program” that purports to “train students in the ‘artform.’” Do parents send their children to Princeton for this? If there are any parents out there (and I’m sure there are, complete with peeling Bernie stickers on their Volvos) who would be pleased and proud, nay, thrilled, if their sons became drag queens), there are cheaper ways to accomplish this than plunking down $83,140 to get him or her or xer or whatever a degree from Princeton.
The Princeton drag queen training program is “open to all undergraduate and graduate students interested in the world of drag,” so students need not be concerned that they might be too young for it. And there are no prerequisites or preliminary courses that enrollees have to take; they can go from zero to drag queen with just one course. No wonder Princeton charges so much.
The course goes for the entire “academic” year and covers a sweeping array of pressing issues that every young man who will be graduating from college and facing the future in the next few years needs to know, and know thoroughly. These include “the history of drag, ‘Sewing 101,’ choreography, face painting, photoshoots, and other topics,” as if all that wasn’t quite enough, thank you very much.
On the cutting edge as always, Princeton was actually offering scholarships for this course. An Instagram post stated: “Drag University is a new program housed under the mentorship pillar of the Gender + Sexuality Resource Center,” as anyone would expect. The Gender + Sexuality Resource Center describes itself as fostering “a supportive and inclusive campus community for women, femme, trans and queer Princetonians.”
In line with that mission, Princeton’s Drag University is a full-year program that will “teach about the history of drag, as well as the art form of drag. Sessions will be taught by local drag performers, on-campus partners who know their way around machines, and other students. This program is open to undergraduate and graduate students. The first 8 applicants who commit to the entire curriculum and attend orientation will get a scholarship to cover costs of supplies.”
Generous. This course, however, is so very much in line with the spirit of the age that all the scholarships were snapped up in the twinkling of an eye. The College Fix noted that “the form was updated this week to note: ‘At this time we have reached our capacity for our scholarships, but you are more than welcome to attend our workshops.’” That kind invitation appears to be extended only to Princeton students, so you’re still in for the $83,140.
Considering that “pride” is the emblematic slogan and second-favorite deadly sin of the entire LGBTQETC movement, it would have been only natural for Princeton to be effusive and enthusiastic about its new Drag University and happy to respond to inquiries. However, when The College Fix reached out to university administrators, Princeton’s media affairs division, and the Gender + Sexuality Resource Center seeking information about “the number of students enrolled and what pool of money is being used to fund the scholarships,” all of them ignored the inquiries.
Surely they couldn’t have something to hide, could they? Surely they are just bursting with pride about their Drag University, and want all Princeton parents and alumni to know about it, don’t they? Don’t they? If not, why not? Could it be that somewhere underneath their dresses, exaggerated makeup, and wigs, Princeton administrators still have some understanding that this sort of “academic course” is deeply offensive on numerous levels and has no place in any decent university? Inconceivable!

Can’t say any of these further steps into the godless morass, lead by credentialed clown professors, surprise me.
This is the same over priced, under achieving university that actually put a criminally insane fool named Peter Singer on their faculty.
The useful S.T.E.M. curricula that was at first used to buoy this surreal bullshit dogma, now takes a permanent backseat.
The University’s agenda isn’t to inform; it’s to push/require conformity to the whims of the DNC state.
(If I seek someone to hire, their diploma is not just a worthless sheet of paper – it’s now a warning sign of what to avoid.)

“The Gender + Sexuality Resource Center describes itself as fostering “a supportive and inclusive campus community for women, femme, trans and queer Princetonians.”
And it glaringly leaves out men. Many universities, businesses and organizations today are working to (supposedly) elevate women and anyone LGBTQ+.
According to Richard Vedder at Forbes.com, “Men are vastly outnumbered in America’s universities—in the fall of 2016, there were 2,667,000 more women studying than men. Not only are they significantly outnumbered, men are often disproportionately harshly treated in campus disciplinary actions, often being denied rights routinely and constitutionally provided all Americans off campus. Colleges spend millions on Women’s Studies programs, but never a dime on Men’s Studies.”
A retired professor from Grinnell College, feminist Victoria Bissell Brown, said, “I hate all men and wish all men were dead.”
Whether it’s an anti-male tone, or an anti-male comment, all too often, men are vilified and spoken about as if we are the problem – “toxic” masculinity, the patriarchy and so on. Maybe that explains why some men are not going to college. And of those who are, some go in dresses.
It’s sad. Not only for the men themselves, but for the women who want and need real men. It’s sad for our nation that needs real men to defend America and to be productive citizens and to be fathers and leaders.

Inclusive, as in making sure arsenic is included with food.
An activist prick named Ryan Carson (who tweeted his joy over Rush Limbaugh’s death) got a taste of that arsenic.
Karma’s a bitch.
(At least, for once, instead of us reaping what these leftists sow, one of their enablers did.)

Stabbed by one of the usual suspects. “A nice kid” who looks just like the sociopath he is. Scrawny little wuss.

How many parents will forklift over $83,000 to see their student become a drag queen and how much lower can this nation sink?
Snuffy Carter says
Obozo: “that’s not fair – they didn’t have the history of drag class for me when I went to Harvard.”
Steve Chavez says
SAVE BILLIONS NATIONWIDE by banning all classes that have “STUDIES” in the title. They’re all used to recruit activists, HATERS, anarchists, Men Haters, Lesbians/LGBTQWXYZ, turning them into Communists who are The Democratic Party Base!
TRACE it back to the ’60s and ’80s when the CPUSA teamed up with the Soviet KGB whose World Peace Council started the U.S. Peace Council and then affiliates in every state and every major university, which they started in their takeover, all to recruit crooked Peacemakers, who aided and funded war on behalf of Communists, now an almost complete takeover of Central and South America!
THOSE CPUSA AND KGB RECRUITS are today’s teachers, professors, Hollywood, Big Tech, MSM, city/state/national leaders, and Congress. The KGB’s proudest moment was when their recruit became PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA who then surrounded himself with the same recruits who he then appointed to take over ALL Departments, which they weaponized and even conspired in a Coup-attempt against a sitting President and who continue their attack like no other time in our history!
How many of those students changed their degrees, their dreams, their parent’s dreams, to then change majors to “STUDIES”? How many of them are now begging for Loan Forgiveness since they can’t find a job besides working at Starbucks which hires FREAKS?
Chris Shugart says
If I were a young entrepreneur, I might be inclined to start my own business in the Drag Queen industry. And my price would certainly be extremely competitive compared to Princeton’s ridiculously inflated price tag. I hereby submit my proposal to any investor who might want to cash in on this potentially lucrative phenomenon.
“Welcome to Drag Queens Are Us. Here’s your dress. Here’s your lipstick. That will be $150. Thank you.
Next, please.
CowboyUp says
Leftists need classes in everything, even in how to put on a condom. It’s no surprise they need classes in how to dress up as strippers, and put on clown makeup.
Jeff Bargholz says
Yeah, tranny classes are batshit insane but sewing is a useful skill. I’m surprised Princeton included it in its whacko curriculum.
CowboyUp says
Sewing sure is, mom made most of my sister’s and my clothes. until we were 8 or 9. I can only do simple stuff by hand.

Excuse me, but what’s a “femme?” Thats a new one …….
Jeff Bargholz says
Who knows? The Alphabet People can’t stop using stupid terms for themselves.
CowboyUp says
I first heard it in the term “Femme Fatale.” (Seductive and dangerous woman). Feme is French for woman, but gay people took it over and now it means lipstick lesbian, effeminate gay man, or tranny.
Kasandra says
We’ve ceased being a serious country when one of our premier universities offers this nonsense.
ed says
At only $83 K that’;s a bargain
CowboyUp says
It is for them, since they don’t plan to pay off their college loans. For tax payers on the other hand…

A real leader would purge all institutions of communists and queers.
Darrel says
If Albert Einstein would have arrived at Princeton these days, he would have returned home in a pink dress, a yellow/green combed hair and fake breasts. And the Theory of the Relativity would be about BLM relativistic speed in getting out of jail.
Sir Peter says
The universities must be purged of communists and degenerates
DARRYL NELSON says
Men gaudily dressed up as women are as ugly as ugly gets. I remember the first time seeing this on Liberace as a young kid, and thinking the same. My parents laughed and thought it was funny. I just thought it was stupid and ugly.
Women’s fashion has been designed for the women’s form. Men posing as women typically only accentuate all the ways that men are not, and could never be, anything like a woman.
It is the rare man, and typically the ladyboy for South-east Asia, that can pull that fashion off to where they can reasonably pass themselves off as some facsimile of a beautiful woman.

Not to worry. KY is included with the $83,000.
