At Purdue, Chiang declined to act against an administrator who mocked Asian languages at a graduation ceremony, refused to take any stances on social or political issues, weakened tenure and diversity policies, declined to meet directly with students, and did not respond quickly to public record requests.
Definitely a very safe, conservative choice for Northwestern.
The Northwestern community is pretty excited about this choice.

Northwestern has several programs- communications, music, engineering to name a few- that are standouts and among the top programs in the country.
There is one (maybe two) posters on here that have a weird obsessive anti Northwestern bias. It's really weird.
Aw, snowflake NU mom, it’s okay.
Sweetie, I'll thank you not to speak snidely of a school that has among the top communications programs in the country.

MAGA can’t take it.
He had a position under Pompeo back in Trump’s first term. But I think he’s likely anti-CCP.
Worked for Pompeo because he is anti-CCP? Not because he is MAGA?
I think he is at NU to beef up their already strong engineering program.

Lots of complaining about him/Purdue on rejecting/rescinding offer of many graduate students from China. Now it's NW turn I guess.

I wrote this comment; it appears I accidentally deleted part of it before posting.
I was going to say, I thought Northwestern was embracing Trump/MAGA with the $75M settlement, so this seems like a turn of events.
