Baylor is a Baptist college. Freshman year REQUIRES going to bible study twice a week.

Probably one of the most conservative colleges in Texas.

Not sure why they are trying to take money away from there.

Work on Berkeley or Oberlin or Antioch or something!!!!

7 million is nothing if we can’t take down college athletics too. We are literally entertaining ourselves to death.

Charlie Kirk is well worth watching as he gets results on whatever he puts his mind to. I think that’s why Trump likes him alot! He’s also a very courageous and smart fellow.

I can't wait for some woke twit from my alma mater to call looking for donations.

My response will be, it's time to defund.

I hope it becomes a roaring success. The only way they will change is to have it hit where it hurts them the most, in the wallet.

Defund the Ivy League!

There are kids who have killed themselves because they couldn’t pay their student loans.

In essence, those administrators have blood on their hands. Because all, or most of the money goes to the top.

Students bear the burden. And sometimes pay with their lives.

If it is one of the “most conservative” then we are truly in trouble. It does NOT have a Godly leadership at present. It grieves me because it’s my alma mater, but no, it has been drifting left for some time. The required weekly “Chapel” meetings have been a forum for every left-wing unBiblical heresy and New Age nonsense for some time. And they have been called out on it, many times: https://www.campusreform.org/?ID=14415

Additionally, they have recently formed a “committee” to determine the future of Baylor’s statues. Kid you not.

Universities should be required to cosign on all government loans to students.
Should the student default, the university to some degree should be forced to repay the loans.
It puts their skin in the game.

Any college, such as Harvard enjoys tax exempt status as a 501 (c)(3) tax exempt organization, which requires political neutrality. Seems like the IRS ought to busy themselves going after all those fines and penalties, and don’t forget the interest. It’s clear, they long ago abandoned any pretense of political neutrality, so now it’s time to make them pay up. That goes for their donors who gave contributions as well. Same with all these “foundations” which are nothing more than front organizations for the marxists within.

"There are kids who have killed themselves because they couldn’t pay their student loans."

I highly doubt it's about loans. I believe it's because they have been indoctrinated with a hopeless/negative outlook for America and their own lost future. Plus, their phones have turned them into zombies who only read the negative crap from the MSM.

I knew of some people who went to Hardin Simmons in Abilene. I thought it was a good school, back in the 70s, but since they kicked that white female out, for something stupid, I figured it can’t be a good place anymore.

“Parenthetically, unlike their left-wing counterparts who tend to enthusiastically politicize even the most non-political subjects with their educational institution’s approval, any conservative, populist, or libertarian who teaches on an adjunct/part-time basis is, in general, aware that they must avoid expressing opinions about politics at all costs, otherwise their semester-to-semester contract likely won’t be renewed.”

I am retired from a major public University in IL where I had an administrative position in the Mathematics Dept. Now one would think Math, not a subject that would have a political context to it. That’s true, but not the professors teaching it, almost all of whom were liberals at best, socialists at worst.

You cannot escape the liberal indoctrination present in all Departments on mostly public University campuses, but on many elite private ones too. It is insidious and pervasive and the few of us that were conservative would talk behind closed doors in my office, surrounded by the enemy.

Better go walk around Waco and re-evaluate the political tilt of the university-affiliated population (students, staff, and hanger's-on).
