If you want to know why a generation of Americans are graduating universities hating their country and swimming in woke politics, the answer is that our nation colleges are controlled by far-left administrators and professors.
A frightening example of how illiberal these professors have become is the report of professors at New York University joining forces with radical students to block student access to libraries in order to protest the war in Gaza.
Not only are these radicals wrong on the substance, but they are betraying their liberal teaching ideals by blocking students from further studies at the library the blocked students pay for.
This should be a fireable offense, but don’t hold your breath.
It’s unlikely that these radical professors will even be disciplined by the school administrators, let alone punished by legal authorities.
The lack of responsiveness from the administration gives license to antisemites and to the Marxists among us to continue to harass students who disagree with their political philosophies.
The presidents of Harvard and other higher level institutions were fired over the last few years for failing to adequately deal with radicals who were harassing campus goers, including Jewish students.
We hope that would have changed the mindset of the far-left administrators running most of our schools, but alas, that doesn’t seem to be the case … at least not in NYU. Hopefully, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-East Greenbush) can put the pressure on these weak, radical administrators as she once did with Harvard before she leaves Congress to become our new ambassador to the United Nations.
