Columbia Ends Legal Fight

Columbia agrees to pay $200M to the government. Columbia will also pay $21 million to settle investigations brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

Columbia also agreed to set up a twice per year review of its hiring practices, to ensure it no longer uses DEI in its hiring AND admission policies.

In return, Trump will release the hundreds of $Ms he withheld from the school.

This fulfills a campaign promise Trump made to force higher education to comply with administration politics.

Hey MAGA: there's a reason why the best and brightest came to the USA: it's because our higher education was independent and free to invent.. Or is it because you're never going to be able to get into Columbia?

The dumbing down of the USA continues...

This is part of the MO of all totalitarian governments. Control the education and the minds of the citizens and they become your pawns. The MAGA bullies are causing damage to the economics of higher education forcing them to abandon the concept of freedom of education. The big universities cannot exist without the federal grants they receive, for doing vital research.

As a person of the Jewish faith, I am appalled that all of this is being blamed on countering antisemitism. It is simply an attempt to control what is taught. Look at who will make future decisions, on hiring,permissions, curriculum!

We are in BIG trouble.

Getting close to completion, that dumbing down project, isn't it?
