The government isn’t saying that. No one is forcing Harvard to do anything. They have a billion dollar endowment and can do as they please.

What they can’t do is foster an educational atmosphere of harassment and expect the taxpayers to finance it.


Sounds like you skipped the letter with the Trump admin’s demands. In the second link.


I literally quoted from the article.

No one is forcing Harvard to do anything.

Harvard is throwing a hissy fit because it wants to do certain things AND get taxpayer funds.

Doesn’t work like that.


+1. It’s Harvard that is making the decision to abandon funding for medical and other important research. Obviously their commitment to DEI ideology is more important to them than real work that can benefit society. So be it.


This is Trump and republicans trying to impose their Marxist ideology on the US. Hopefully after the midterms the Dems will turn the IRS on maga and their media support network.

But even at Caltech I certainly wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some differences difference based on sex, given there’s more than double the number of male applicants but the student population is 54% male. So, is that an ok exception? If so, how different from other cases? If not, do we lose something? There has always been at least a case for some form of diversity, but arguing we might as well resort to ditching democratic norms if we can’t agree where to draw the line is like burning down the house when you dislike the paint job.


We don't have to agree on where to draw the line on racial discrimination, the constitution does that for us.


And gender discrimination? That's OK?


I don't think so but maybe. Gender is not a suspect class but it is a qausi suspect class which means that gender discrimination is subject to intermediate scrutiny rather than strict scrutiny.

How convenient

All taxpayers will never agree on anything. If the standard for receipt taxpayer funds is agreement from all taxpayers, then nothing would ever be funded from public coffers.


Right. That's why we have elections. Trump won the last election. In no small part because people were turned off to the liberal elite messaging, the racial discrimination against white and asians, the never ending stream of woke ideology coming out of places like Harvard.


If I have learned one thing in the past couple of years is all the same people who say they can't stand racism against Asians had no problem with COVID epithets and violence against Asians and hate meritocracy when Asians actually thrive.

The same people who cry about anti semitism at universities embrace salutes and white supremacists like Stephen miller.

So no...no one is taking you any seriously any more. You've rung a false tune on that bell too many times.


You know Stephen Miller is Jewish right?

It wasn't the Republicans calling Asians racist for fighting against anti Asian racism.

Clearly not a very good one.


Depends on who you ask.

Miller’s uncle said he wasn’t. He would know his nephew better than you.

How exactly is that a bad thing when you know Chinese students here are mandated to steal our research, and report it back to their Communist handlers to use against us?

If this is the litmus test, they need to round up and deport the Indian and Israeli students as well.

And they have no issue with tax dollars potential paying for students to attend far right leaning Christian schools.

Anti semitic is an overused and trite word used by anyone who disagree with Zionism. Alan Garber, the president of Harvard University is a practicing Jew who grew up in a Jewish household.

Your hate is strong. DEI is wrong until you agree with it. So you have no problem with trump demanding hiring and curriculum authority for DEI MAGA hires.

Exactly. They are wealthy enough without my hard earned tax dollars.

Better to stop poisoning people, then to endlessly steal from us.

We’ve been sucked into a massive racket.

Defund all colleges and universities is the thing to do. If you don’t attend university, why should our hard earned money subsidize them.

Those Greatest Generation were real stupid.

Set up the government grants after WWII because they knew America's survival depended on being technological dominant
