'Scratching the surface': Education Depart. uncovers $1.3B in (unreported) foreign university funding....
washingtonexaminer ^ | 12/10/2019 | Jerry Dunleavy

Universities failed to report more than a billion dollars in foreign funding, officials believe is only a sliver of the unreported overseas donations flowing onto campuses..........“It is already a reporting requirement for schools to report all foreign contributions...It’s a simple requirement: Report all foreign money you get.”

...Nations such as China, Russia, and Qatar hadn’t told the federal government about. DeVos said foreign funding is an administration-wide 'national security concern'.

China’s secretive influence on campus figured most prominently.....“One university received research funding from a Chinese multinational conglomerate to develop new algorithms and advance biometric security techniques for crowd surveillance capabilities,” .... also revealed 5 of the 6 universities had or have contacts with Huawei, a Chinese telecommunications company that U.S. intelligence community deemed a national security threat, the FCC banned from federal broadband subsidies, and the Justice Depart is prosecuting for allegedly evading sanctions, stealing trade secrets, and obstructing justice.

Investigation showed one university had 'multiple contracts with the ruling Chinese Communist Party’s Central Committee', and one university also received gifts from a foundation “suspected of acting as a propaganda and influence front” for the Chinese government. Another promotes a Thousand Talents Program, which the FBI deems a Chinese form of “nontraditional espionage," through a Chinese company with close ties to China’s government.

The investigation showed one university had a relationship with Kaspersky Lab, a Russia-based cybersecurity company whose products the Trump administration banned gov. agencies from using amid concerns it worked with Russian intelligence.

The attorney also cited court filings that show Qatari donations are made strategically to advance Qatari interests and that secrecy is often part of the agreement in receiving those funds.

A lot of quid pro quo going on in universities.....and they’re flooded with angry feminists along with activist Professors... Rid the schools of just these two and it would be a great start.

Far worse than what they are accusing Trump of. College presidents should go to jail.

That’s very true....The Obamas targeted students from day one to utilize and indoctrinate..even today their aim is to rise them up whenever the Dems call for any protests.

Devos is doing a great job at lifting the veil.....Remember Trumps going after whereever the largest streams of cash flow reside to rid this nations ‘theft’ by foreign and domestic entities. He’s fullfilling exactly what he said he would do. Stop the ripping off of the this nation.

Universities, Hospitals, Insurance companies, Health organizations, and so called foundations...are all used for money laundering and/or Ceo’s and Proffesors taking their share of the pie along the way.

FTA

[General Counsel Reed] Rubinstein did not name the universities associated with each finding, citing the department's general policy not to comment on the status or results of current investigations. But the universities under review are Georgetown, Texas A&M, Cornell, Rutgers, the University of Maryland, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Does anyone wonder why our universities teach a love of communism and hatred for capitalism and the USA?

If those student spies can’t get into US universities, they can always get into our military.
