US Education Secretary Linda McMahon alleges that Columbia ignored the harassment of its Jewish students: 'This is not only immoral, but also unlawful.'
Apparently they don’t. The feds recognize the independent agencies that accredit universities
The Department does not accredit individual educational institutions and/or programs and is not directly involved in the institutional or programmatic accrediting process. The Department recognizes only agencies that apply for recognition; many do not. Along with its recognition decision, the Department designates the scope of accrediting activities to which its recognition pertains.
So how he thinks he can force MSCHE to withdraw their accreditation, I don’t know.
I mean he could threaten that, but that’s gonna piss even more people off. I’m not going to look through the whole list but at the top of the alphabet I spotted Bard, Barnard, Carnegie-Mellon, Cornell…
They’re not anti-higher education for all, just for liberals and those who are not part of the wealthy class. That’s why they jacked the price up around the 1980s. Too many poors were going to school, competing with rich kids for high paying jobs, and cementing class-consciousness pushing for social change. They can’t have that!
Raising the cost of tuition meant fewer families were able to attend college without financial aid, which has also been set up to be a lasting financial burden for us plebs. Couple that with better employment opportunities being largely reliant on the level of education obtained, and you have a system designed by the rich, for the rich, to ensure they’re the only educated group, able to ascend to the upper echelons of power.
Also, they want smart people with college degrees (and sociopathic tendencies) to work for them and come up with new ways to manipulate/kill people! It’s why so many Nazis were incorporated into US projects after WWII, rather than being hanged for the crimes they helped facilitate against humanity.
Edit: I forgot to include the racism part of the price hike, specifically aimed to prevent class mobility for people of color. Racism is just the worst!
They want the kind of higher education that gave legacy admissions and gentleman’s C’s.
And while they are motivated by racism as well as class prejudice, they also hate poor white people gaining class mobility. Actual meritocracy makes the dimwitted offspring of the upper class look as dimwitted as they are. I’m a working-class white guy who went to an elite university on a full scholarship-- the dolts with surnames for first names assumed I was a preppie like them, since I was literate and did well in my classes. Most of them weren’t and didn’t.
After seeing what the privileged classes are like, it’s a miracle I didn’t become a bolshevik.

By bullying them just like he’s bullying Columbia?
I mean so threaten MSCHE with recognition withdrawal if they don’t discredit Columbia. It’s not like its a far reach for Republicans.

I don’t think that matters when they’re so anti higher education
