From the bill:
(5) Columbia University dissolved its long-standing Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) program on campus because of disagreement with United States military policy, and for nearly four decades has not invited the return of any ROTC program to the University campus.
(6) Despite this fact, Columbia University has continued to accept funds made available through ROTC scholarships, while University faculty continue to oppose United States military policies and law.
(7) Through their invitation, Columbia University provided a public, prestigious platform on United States soil from which on September 24, 2007, President Ahmadinejad spoke and defended his wide-ranging support for terrorist activities.
Right and I am sort of stuck in my conservatarian loop on this. If they university cannot cooperate with the Govt (in the Govt’s constitution duty to protect the country) the Govt should have the right to chose.
It is pretty close to a Bill of Attainder.
