Education department accuses university of violating federal anti-discrimination laws and notifies accreditor
The Department of Education announced on Wednesday afternoon that it has notified Columbia University’s accreditor of an alleged violation of federal anti-discrimination laws by the elite private university in New York that is part of the Ivy League.
The alleged violation means that Columbia, in the Trump administration’s assessment, has “failed to meet the standards” set by the relevant regional, government-recognized but independent body responsible for the accreditation of degree-granting institutions, as a kind of educational quality controller.
In this case the accreditor is the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. Accreditors determine which institutions are eligible for federal student loans and various federal grants.
What was the point of Columbia rolling over and ending freedom of thought and expression to satisfy Zionist and fascist lunatics? Appeasement doesn’t work.
The assumption is that you are dealing with a rational (at least), good faith (debatable) actor when you are dealing with the Federal government as an Ivy League institution.
The sooner they realize they fucked up the better, this goes for everyone.
Resistance is mandatory to get through this and it will take the support of the world to do it. And it’s worth it, because regardless of the pending economic collapse, they still have all the air-gapped nuclear ICBMs.
So, is the takeaway that Trump, with his preferred politicians and servants installed everywhere, still is too feeble and powerless to end the Department of Education?
