You should study the works of Martin Luther King, Dana. DEI is racist, sexist, and Marxist. We are being destroyed by ignorance and emotion, disguised as equity. We as a nation want the best person for the job so we compete with the world for excellence, regardless of race, gender, orientation, etc.
Hahaha. Maybe you should understand the meaning of all of the above. DEI gave many millions are chance to show their abilities that the white man would never have given a chance. That's a fact. Those people also gave a hand up to many millions more.
Academic freedom and independence is important. The ideology behind your assessment of ANTI-GENOCIDE Protests, and in support of an uprising, against an unlawful occupation, appears extremist to many. It shows that such assessments are entirely subjective. As is the case with the Trump administration, you seem to believe that your biased and subjective assessments - are objective, non-controversial, and universally held...they are not!
International law recognizes the unlawfully occupied Palestinian Territories, as being just that. There's no need for quotation marks around Palestinian Territories, any more than there would be for them around the unlawfully occupied areas of Lebanon and Syria. You should learn the difference between that which is de facto, and that which is definitely de jure.
The Federal Government pays for Research at Harvard, because they know that it produces either high level work - or at least research that agrees with their own biases, priorities and worldview. Interference in Academic freedom, on pretended and assumed grounds, benefits only the special interests that are behind these attacks on academia.
They should all lose their tax exempt status- because these colleges are ‘for profit’ institutions
They’re not truly inclusive
today… you have two kinds of kids at elite universities- for the most part
The very most wealthy kids- whose families can stroke a check for $99k a year- for 4 years… with no second thoughts of the actual value it provides- they simply want the elite brand name
And the very poorest kids- who can essentially go for free… if a significant amount off the price tag
The middle income brightest American kids- aren’t taking on $400k in debt to get the ‘elite education’ anymore… they’re going to state school honors programs … and likely having the exact same
professional outcomes- without the indoctrination- or the crippling debt - coming out of the ‘elite’ schools
Being Book smart… is not the same as having common sense
And to be a success in life- I’d say common sense is a more valuable life skill
And to your point. Harvard has no common sense at the moment … nor do a lot of New England self proclaimed elite colleges
Tax payers aren’t getting a return on their money out of these schools… the tax funded government research money was
intended to produce… innovation, entrepreneurship, scientific advancements out of these colleges
As a tax payer
I’m not seeing a return on that investment … covid exposed that.
These were the ‘experts’ we relied on - and they got it all WRONG! And it cost people’s lives.
A percent of the grant money is being squandered in social engineering pet projects… and useless scientific studies that won’t advance anything- because of conflicts of interests… and even worse possibly undermined by international
interests… instead of it’s intended
purpose
Time to reevaluate how government money is allocated. Americans aren’t getting what they needed to out of those dollars, they way are currently being
spent.
And the elite colleges ‘entitlement’ tells you… they just assumed the gravy train would continue- unchecked
These colleges are NOT ENTITLED to these tax payer dollars if they aren’t providing value directly back to society.
This is absolutely a bias opinion.
Let me ask you a very simple question?
What have Harvard graduates contributed to this nation since it's inception?
How many Presidents & great leaders?
How many medical innovations?
How many scientific innovations?
How many are we going to lose because of this stupid tantrum by a stupid man?
Let me ask you Tom…. You identify as ‘woke’
Are you satisfied with the state of government?
And the state of medical care in this country?
And what ‘science’ brought us during covid…
Because that has mainly been brought to you by the ‘elites’ of this country that attended those colleges and universities…
I for one
Am not satisfied with any of that.
And my husband is a phi beta kappa Ivy leaguer …
This is my opinion.
You may just not like it.
DEI has actually been shown to benefit white women the most. It is only divisive to scared white men.

Haha pretty funny at least their top foreign contributer isn't Putin
“Common sense” at the WOKE-Veritas bastion…surely you jest.
ARROGANCE personified!
They should defund this and all colleges who support these leftist ideas. They should NEVER be funded by taxpayers dollars.

Nonsense
Very well stated. Agree entirely with everything you posted.
It is one thing for us to fund UCLA or Michigan, but Harvard? Come on. How does a non profit accumulate $50B? Disgusting.
Not knowing this answer says plenty. Look it up, it's public information.
Well it's a good thing they have 50 billion so they don't have to kiss anybody's butt to keep going
