I would love to see some of the colleges and other companies say exactly what Andy did in his tweet about the brainwashing part.

I'm impressed.

Now tar and feather + cane and/or taser the Leftists for their terrorism, and I'll send a donation to your school.

I guess some big donors made some phone calls.

I saw that story earlier and I’m still in shock. For those that don’t know, Carolina is the Berkeley of the East.

My guess is behind the scenes endowments and donations were on the line and that made this happen.

2.3 mil is nothing when you're paying educational administrators, their benefits, their support staff, and whatever nonsense initiatives they're pimping (aka flying them around the country for absurd "conferences")

This is going to spread nation-wide and cause many tenured personnel to go off the deep end. We'll see an uptick of lone wolf incidents and then a revival of Patriotism in higher education as the pendulum swings hard in the opposite direction.

My dad worked for the UNC General Administration (of the Consolidated University, there are 17) for many years. This doesn't surprise me...at its core Carolina has always been a great school, and will be again.

Keep pushing.  Make sure they destroy every race based policy.  Don't let them just rename it.

I wonder if a certain donor demographic remembered that funding people that want to put them in ovens is bad. I think the left taking the mask all the way off and revealing Hamas underneath spooked some folks.

A member of the BoT in the article was quoted as saying more or less "The administration is too bloated, we need to make some more changes".

Never thought I'd see the day, but UTexas and UFlorida have both dismantled their DEI apparatus as well.

Stanford just elected a white guy president too. It's been obvious for a while these protests were a final straw.

It's donors and parents and the students themselves. End of the day reputation is everything to these institutions.

Sorokin’s Pendulum Theory? I think. Maybe. I don’t remember much about it.

But I see it’s starting. People I know where weren’t die hard lefties are even seeing the writing on the wall. Hell some die hard lefties are still taking notice.

Yes, thats it. And we could see the seeds back in 2016.

I remain cautiously optimistic.

yup.

We'll see if they follow through in the long term. Fed grants are requiring more and more DEI elements all the time.

Good. Now’s a good time to push for reform for student loans. Things like this only can exist when there’s a bubble of capital, force universities to cut spending.

It’s a good start, but funding campus police isn’t the answer.  Get rid of campus police and use the money to contract with the local police or sheriff to police it like another patrol zone.  It takes the bias and university control out of the decision making.  University police are just puppets for the administration.

MIT was the first private university to eliminate diversity statements for faculty and students a couple weeks ago.  The pendulum is changing direction.

Except one of the Admin quoted in the article said it was a shame that the town of Chapel Hill refused to respond when asked to support the university cops - sounds like they need more, not less.
