@pbsnews: Using funding to 'force concessions' threatens institutions, Princeton president says Columbia University agreed to comply with a series of demands from the Trump administration about how it will handle protests, antisemitism and academic departments. The university faced a deadline to either comply or risk losing $400 million in federal funding. Jeffrey Brown discussed the broader crackdown on higher education with Princeton University President Christopher L. Eisgruber. #pbsnews #newshour #pbsnewshour #columbiauniversity #highered #federalfunding #collegesanduniversities #princeton#princetonuniversity #ivyleague #news #freespeech #academicfreedom #highereducation #donaldtrump

Trump is already showing he’s a dictator by going after the universities, the free press, and removing agencies that protect the public! Trump must be impeached, convicted, and thrown out!

I'm glad to hear him say the objection to using funding as blackmail. Hopefully that means he'd fight.

Ivies have huge endowments, they could withstand a few years without fed funding - but they don’t want to dip into their endowments.

That is the purpose of higher education to learn and protest. Protests develop on campus by students
