Now that is putting it plainly, What would it take to overcome the marxists? What happened to the school that was set up, what happened to the faculty and student exchange? If it stopped because it wasn't needed, it sounds like it would be beneficial to set up once again, provided the government, would agree, theirs not ours.

"If it stopped because it wasn't needed, it sounds like it would be beneficial to set up once again, provided the government, would agree, theirs not ours."

It was stopped because there was a bloody revolution, Haile Selassie was overthrown in 1974 and Ethiopia was run by a brutal Communist dictator for the next 18 years.

Since the fall of the Soviet Union, I believe Ethiopia has fallen into, well, anarchy. Before Ethiopia A&M, the extension service and the exchange program could be re-vitalized, there needs to be a stable government in Addis Ababa.
