Dr. Benjamin Merkle: Federal gov’t is the main customer of American colleges and universities – Brighteon.TV

November 08, 2023 -

"The No. 1 revenue stream for colleges and universities right now is the federal government, and that is propping the whole thing up. Since [the government is] the one that is paying the bill, that means [it] is the main customer. It's not really the student or the parents," said Merkle, the president of New Saint Andrews College (NSAC) in Idaho.

According to the senior fellow of theology, Big Ed pertains to the majority of higher education institutions that are essentially ...

DHS joins with woke universities to label “manosphere” a terror threat

January 04, 2024 -

(Article by Tyler Durden republished from ZeroHedge.com)

Is arguing logically against feminism really such a threat to the nation?  No, but it is a threat to the woke movement, which has been on the decline in recent years as more and more information about their ideology is scrutinized by the public.

Woke activism, which includes third-wave feminism, is transparently astroturf.  It relies on billions of dollars in funding supplied by elitist institutions such ...

2 months ago -

In the wake of criticism that DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) policies are leading to people, primarily whites, not being hired for jobs they are qualified for, the universities in question are speaking out against hiring people based on merit, calling this a "bad" thing, even though universities exist to provide qualifications through education.

At the University of Glasgow in Scotland, the "big brains" issued a statement as part of an "anti-racism" campaign asserting ...

(Article by Newt Gingrich republished from Spectator.org)

This constitutional crisis is so widespread and threatening that House Republicans must dramatically widen their investigations. Hunter Biden and President Joe Biden are only a tiny part of a spiderweb of corruption, dishonesty, criminal behavior, and state weaponization. The rule of law is steadily being replaced by a frightening new rule of power.

Of course, it is important to get to the bottom of the ...

Sotomayor caught muscling universities into buying thousands of her books for a pretty penny

July 12, 2023 -

(Article by Monica Showalter republished from AmericanThinker.com)

She has benefited, too — from schools' purchases of hundreds, sometimes thousands, of the books she has written over the years.

Sotomayor's staff has often prodded public institutions that have hosted the justice to buy her memoir or children's books, works that have earned her at least $3.7 million since she joined the court in 2009. Details of those events, largely out of public view, were obtained ...

May 26, 2023 -

Funneling the money through a so-called "anti-terrorism" grant initiative, Biden and his henchmen are paying institutions of higher learning to lump members of the Republican Party and those who trust in Jesus Christ for salvation into the same category as the Nazi Party.

"This terrorism task force is engaged in an active effort to demonize and eliminate Christian, conservative, and Republican organizations using federal taxpayer dollars," said Brent Bozell, founder and ...

Laura Beltz, FIRE’s director of policy reform, emphasized the problem, stating that free speech at higher educational establishments ...

Colleges, universities have become so “woke” that students are shifting back to technical education to learn useful skills

May 05, 2023 -

Ever since far-left "wokeism" took over American education, increasingly more young people are coming to the stark realization that getting a Bachelor's degree is certifiably useless, in many cases, because most of what students are being taught these days at Western institutions is to hate white people and to embrace communism.

The issue was discussed at the recent Axios event "Skills over Status: The Shift Toward Skills-Based Hiring," which was held on April 19 in Washington, ...

Supreme Court strikes down racist “affirmative action” admissions policies at U.S. colleges and universities as progressive left DEMANDS never-ending racial discrimination

July 02, 2023 -

The Supreme Court decided this week that "affirmative action" policies designed to admit more non-whites at institutions of higher learning are unconstitutional. In a 6-3 decision, admissions criteria across American higher education can no longer discriminate against whites.

For many decades, affirmative action was touted as a way to promote "diversity" and boost the representative share of "minorities" that appear on college and university campuses. The program specifically ...
