Michael Moore Scholarship

Michael Moore - Enemy of StateCampus protest for dollars?

Michelle Malkin points out news of Michael Moore’s latest contribution to society: a gimmicky scholarship for college students to act up and out.

The Michael Moore Freedom of Speech Scholarship will award two $2,500 annual scholarships to Cal State San Marcos students “who have done the most to fight for issues of student rights by standing up to the administration,” according to a news release issued Wednesday.

You’d think the most important student “right” is to get a good education, but it’s unlikely Mr. Moore is considering that a criteria. If people get too smart, they might wise up to what a fraud he is. So, better to place value on disruptiveness. (Sorry, that’s “political activism” in collegiate parlance)

Sidenote: Considering Moore’s personal wealth, $5,000 a year seems pretty stingy. Wonder if he’ll write it off?

We’ve got our own “freedom of speech” initiative here: it’s called Hollywood Doesn’t Speak For Everyone. And you’re invited.

Maybe Michael Moore will make a donation. It’s for a good cause. Speaking out, indeed.
