Long past time for most institutions. I quit donating to Bowdoin in 1971 after the college colluded with BS artists shutting the school down to protest the war. Graduated in 1968, but it only took me a couple years to wise up. PC was already aborning.

far-left professors now dominate disciplines like English literature, sociology, and history

Ha. They dominate every department.

Agreed on the Colleges, also, every democrat and RINO should be voted out of office and never to be returned.
Wake up America.

My alma mater was cut-off after some absurd anti-military articles in our alumni magazine.

If I were to go to a college (a big maybe), I would never donate. The money that could be donated would be put to better use buying myself a guitar.

I stopped after September 11 since they were going to pay that Fahrenheit 911 idiot Michael Moore $35,000 on campus. I think there was such an uproar they cancelled it yet their poor judgment showed me they don't deserve my two mites.

The last time someone from my leftist undergrad university called asking for money, I explained to the caller how much liberalism I had had to unlearn since graduation. That devolved into an argument about Karl Marx's "Capital."

They haven't called since.

I’m nearing the end of my run here on earth, so the wife and I have been doing final checks on the validity of our modestly sizeable family trust bequeaths.

Spent my freshman year at Stetson; we stopped by there a few weeks ago. Had an impromptu extended chat with a young, brilliant (non-tenured) political science professor. He is well-versed in the ways of the left, but casually dismisses the big government concerns of conservatives. He was quite happy that the “heavy hand” of the Southern Baptist Convention no longer interferes with the college’s enlightened academic elite and SJWs.

Drove north for a family reunion, then over to Hillsdale College in Michigan. (They’re the ones who publish “Imprimis”.) WOW, were we impressed! (Let’s just say that when we left them with a check, jaws dropped.)

We’ve already dumped the University of Miami (my undergrad degree) and SUNY (my wife’s undergrad degree). Since a business school professor at Stetson kick-started my career path by getting me a summer job, cutting them off really hurts, but damned if I’m going to pay for SJW training.

After our visit to Hillsdale, we’re seriously considering saying bye-by to Embry-Riddle (grad school for both of us) and leaving it all to Hillsdale.

As for now, after supporting FR, consider sending Prager “University” a donation. It’s a great bang for the buck - some of the views for their videos total in the millions!

Today most colleges are cesspools of ignorance.

I stopped giving to The Citadel when they stopped playing Dixie at every touchdown. At our 50th reunion the class always gets to chose the song they want at halftime. Dixie was turned down.

And this is the school that fired the first shots of the Civil War - go figure!!

Haven’t given for years and years since Penn led the way in PC by trying to throw a kid off campus as a racist because he called a bunch of noisy students who were interrupting his studies (and turned out to be black females) “water buffalos”......

"A survey by the Higher Education Research Institute at UCLA found that a staggering 60 percent of university professors identified as “liberal” or “far-left” in 2014..."

I worked in education and heard too many teachers and administrators of the radical left lie to say that they were conservative. Before that, decades ago, I saw young men with prior service being pushed to drop out (including being told by instructors to leave classes) by an instructor, who was also the Kansas State N.O.W. President. Many university instructors wouldn't hesitate to lie in a survey for the purpose of getting more tuitions from conservative families.

Young people, you can do very well without a college education and the disgusting brainwashing that comes with it. Lifetime self-education is easy now. If you want power and wealth in the near future, toughen up and smarten up by learning and practicing technologies--especially low technologies.

I bailed when the alumni mag put Plame on the cover, and buried an article profiling Michael in the back.

I have given my peoples' republic of U.C. Davis a.m. precisely zero in 40 years.

(I might increase that my 10% this year, ha ha ha.)

After moving to live near PSU in the late 90’s, I discovered it had become a hard left Marxist organization that required indoctrination and feared free thought and speech. It is my opinion that, the university's ground be best plowed, and salted and that every brick and stone be taken from every building until there there is no more.

This is the result the Marxists at that University desire, so let it be!
