I agree. Republicans acting like lazy idiots once again. You know what would really be effective? Cut off the federal funding! If these colleges won't ensure that every one of their students can attend their school safely without discrimination, cut them off financially!
Republicans don't have the guts or spine to do anything meaningful or truly effective.

But Republicans ( and Democrats) are great at being paid off by Israeli lobbyists with plenty of $$$ so our traitorous congress votes how Israel tells them to, not how we the people want. Look up the numbers if you don't believe me. AIPAC is just one of them, and they alone pay off politicians with BIG bucks.
I don't think they care if they have funding cut off from the feds. All the big Ivy's receive grants from all sorts of sources including NGOs and other countries that have NO business giving to those schools in the first place. Most have endowment funds as well. When schools, at any level, accept "free" money they become beholden to their beneficiaries. Such a terrible, terrible outcome to watch colleges implode.
You’re probably right, but if colleges retrieved zero direct federal funding, and were required to finance their own student debt, I think it would be a great step in the right direction. Than clamp down on ‘studies’ of zero benefit to anyone!
The harsh reality that everyone can plainly now see is that universities have become just another "big business" rather than institutions of learning and practical application. Further, they beguile parents into believing that it's an honor to pay for their children's education. It's gross.
As a side note, when I was attending college I began as an interior design major but graduated with a degree in International Relations. It was quite a leap. But the classes I took, in upper division and outside my major, were incredibly fascinating and transformed my education into a the beginning of a life-long love of learning about other countries and how they interact with each both in current times and historically. I just don't see, from all of what is produced these days, that kind of teaching or learning going on. So what is the point of paying echo-chamber learning atmospheres?
