Yes, life was so much better when it was weaponized by Joe & Kamala & the rest of that administration’s geniuses to protect Hunter, harass Catholics, keep a close eye on schoolchildren’s parents, & make sure protesters were able to threaten Supreme Court justices at their homes.

Joe Biden, a devout Catholic, was harassing Catholics while in office? I definitely missed that, and I’m even Catholic too!

DEI, anti-Semitism:
“These are all smokescreens. Trump views colleges as his political enemies, so he is doing everything he can to tear them down. That may be because college graduates overwhelmingly voted for his Democratic opponent, or because college professors produce the research that undermines his baseless claims about everything from climate change to tax cuts. Or he may be influenced by a branch of conservative evangelicals who believe that they need to take over education and other realms.

With Trump, the simplest answer is often the most likely. After winning the Nevada Republican caucuses in 2016 due to support from people who never went to college, he infamously proclaimed, "I love the poorly educated." He's now doing his best to ensure more Americans fit that description.”

I wish we could agree that schools shouldn’t be ANYONE’s political enemy and vice versa, but that’s not the case anymore in today’s climate, is it???
Higher education repeatedly declares its collective political affiliation by establishing frameworks that align with and act as an extension of ONLY one party. And then they encourage students to shut down any dissenting viewpoint by introducing censorship disguised in Orwellian buzzwords. We can’t even have ideological debates on college campuses without colleges being accused of the sin of “platforming” unapproved ideas that go against the far left. They’ve created a a new leftist religion that we must all worship, and they call for inclusion even though they don’t mean that at all. “Silly conservatives—Inclusion is for people who think like we do—and we don’t actual value diversity unless you share our exact opinions and worldview. If you don’t then it’s fine for me to hurl insulting epithets at you and call you an Uncle Tom.”
It’s exhausting.

Conservatives left. It wasn’t liberal coercion. Conservatives decided to abandon their intellectual wing to grifters like Jordan Peterson and Tucker Carlson. Conservatives today don’t even know who Edmund Burke is, but instead prop up any anti establishment figure. You can’t whine about meritocracy when you aren’t even attempting to get into the club. Republicans teach their kids that school is indoctrination and college is a scam, and then wonder why their kids aren’t represented in academia.

I agree that conservatives have basically given up on academia and it is a huge loss. I’m liberal (but not far left) and really believe in challenge and debate. I think the right should re-enter academia but this is the wrong way. They are destroying it. I also think DEI is a smokescreen. I wonder why they don’t come up with legitimate intellectual positions instead of this populist garbage.

The current conservative party is a political machine not an intellectual one. They are using what works to get themselves money and power.

+1 what harassment? The nuns and priests I know voted for Biden and then Kamala. They do not speak favorably about Trump or his politics. Why do you think his lackeys are trying to foment a schism?

Joe Biden let his own son be prosecuted by his Justice Department.

You are drinking the Trump juice and can’t even think logically anymore.

Are you really this ignorant? What are you doing on a board about higher education?

It is so easy to pick out the brainless losers who watch Fox News 24/7 and all they can do it repeat the lies and propaganda that Fox News is telling them. They completely lack the ability to think critically and think that Trump is a flawless God. Contrary to what they think, most Democrats are not 100% behind party leadership and have the ability to ask questions - we are not "out to get" Trump - we just want the standards of decent behavior and discourse that governed our country for so long. Let's start with Trump's childish name calling. Are they really OK with this? Are they OK with their kids behaving like this in school?

If we had literacy tests that prevented these morons from voting the world would be a much better place.

+1 I don't think it is too much to expect a university president to follow the law. We saw this with Title IX. Follow the law or get ousted.

He has resigned already according to the NYT

I hope his replacement is very right wing and takes UVA in the direction it should've been going in this whole time. Maybe they can change the school colors to red and purple instead of orange and purple?
