[quote=Anonymous]Trump and his donors want to keep our country dysfunctional and polarized. We keep getting these nonsensical policies straight out of Orwell's 1984 dystopia, instead of competent leaders and smart policy.

The normal things in the agreement: Should tuition increases be frozen, not sure but slowed, sure. Should foreign entry to universities be capped at 15% - at most universities in the US they already are below that rate. Should grade inflation be quelled - yes at the high school level, but why are colleges on the hook for that?

Some of the more ridiculous things in the agreement: Should universities be forced to create special "safe spaces" for conservative thought and conservative people because they are less popular now - no, that's treating maga like snowflakes who can't make an argument or have any power on campuses unless they're coddled and the environment is rigged in their favor. Should campuses not balance for gender - no, a more normal gender ratio reflecting american society makes for a more healthy college environment and most importantly: college is a product and a balanced gender ratio is what college students of both genders want! Taking away colleges freedom of curriculum, expression, thought, ability for staff to share their political opinions - wrong and not what we pay to go to university for.
