All universities, whether public or private, are subject to this funding change. It’s a rare state that has an extra $100 million or two lying around to fund a research gap. |
except endowments and deep pocket alums can bridge the gap. there are unconstrained funds in the endowment. stop acting arrogant with stupidity. dunning kruger in full effect |
The latter. |
Talk about projecting. You are completely wrong and I am not the poster you’ve been arguing with. |
you are projecting stupidity as well. congrats |
You should really just stop because you are totally without a clue. |
stable geniuses...
Many of my good friends have their funding withdrawn or frozen based on the DEIA wording such as 'diverse microbes'" a scientist reliant on federal research grants told me, adding NSF proposals with terms including 'disabilities' and 'female' have been put on hold |
this you kamala? |
Why are we giving up and accepting all the havoc Trump & co. are wrecking on our country?
Call your Senators ASAP to complain about what Trump is doing to grants, funding for education. Leave a message to let them know they will not have your vote if they go along with Trump's actions or do nothing to block him. This is especially relevant for Republican senators in your state, but ask your Dem senators to fight for our kids' futures too. Senate numbers to call: https://www.senate.gov/general/resources/pdf/senators_phone_list.pdf Same for your Rep in the House: https://www.house.gov/representatives/find-your-representative Finally, the Republican Senators and Congress are following Trump's lead because they are scared they'll not be re-elected if they don't. Let them know in no uncertain terms that they will lose your vote if they don't block Trump on these key, detrimental measures. Deluge them with messages everyday! We can spend hours on this DCUM College thread and years prepping to launch our kids into college, but none of those efforts will matter if we don't fight now to make the Congress hold him accountable as well as vote to block Trump's roll in the mid-terms. There are so many parents from all kinds of states on DCUM, caring about our kids' futures is something we all have in common. Let's not give up and reduce our dreams for our kids or try to force them into fields that won't be destroyed by Trump. Let's get rid of Trump's horrible policies by contacting our Reps and then vote him and the congress people who agree with him OUT. |
People in red states need to call their reps and senators. Democrats cannot stop the mayhem caused by unelected, unvested billionaires running amok. We need science research for all of our health and we need to maintain our best in world science education for our children. |
I would assume there will be a multitude of lawsuits, since this change is against the law. |

People, Elon Musk just said today the Department of Education no longer exists. There are no more student loans now. Kids will now have to scramble to private banks charging 10% interes(absurd) or simply no longer go to college. Colleges are going to collapse due to a severe decline in the number of students that will implode tuition dollars. They're hammering colleges also by kneecapping the amount of overhead from grants.
I don't think you get it. The United States is over. Send you kids abroad for education, because they have successfully implemented an Idiocracy. Low education is the norm. Severely degraded quality in education in all US institutions will now be then norm. The US is now a 3rd world dump of uneducated morons. But at least the US has a lot of guns, pickup trucks, and nukes. The US is no longer a first world country. Top education is now in Asia and Europe. |
You aren't because if you actually were you would understand that 15% for overhead will not scratch the surface. There is plenty of infrastructure and outside expenses just like your local garage who charges you $180/hr for mechanic labor which is paid out at $50/hr. |
Misleading number because endowment money is typically restricted. Even if it wasn't you would be quickly depleting the endowment if you used it for general expenses. |
