While we are on the subject, stop donating to art schools period.
If you REALLY want to hurt them, find out how to get Marxists off the board of governors of the College.
In my state, the governor appoints them. Make sure s/he knows that a condition of support will be to 1) threaten funding if the nonsense does not stop and 2) appoint people not dedicated to turning the schools into a Marxist cesspool.
There’s a much more worthy cause. Sewer workers need a bonus to incentivize their dedication to this thankless job. Without them we’d all be in deep sh!t. So take the money you would normally donate to a prestigious leftard university, and flush it down the toilet. Ed Norton will thank you.
I stopped giving to mine years ago. It used to be a decent place...not so anymore.
Even many places that are supposedly faith-based have gone off a cliff in recent years as well.
‘Donating’ includes paying $60k to send your kid there.
I have two Alma Maters. Never thought about donating to either. They got enough of my money when I was there.
In my experience most college\university (state or private) boards are only interested in whether they get good seats at football\basketball games, society\cultural events or had opportunities to heap each other with praise through “I-Love-Me-&-Others-Like-Me” event awards. Doing something long-term positive for the school is a best a secondary or tertiary concern.
I NEVER gave money to Stanford, even after graduation.
Why would I donate money when I already paid them for my tuition aka their service to me, as a student?
With an endowment of billions, surely they dont need my money. Whenever I see letters from them stating “alumni needs your financial help” I throw it in the trash.
It seems so obvious that we should defund leftist organizations. I don’t get it why we have to be instructed. Is there anything we do to combat the loss of our republic? The left has an agenda...do we?
I turned them down.
I was one of the few in my class who refused to give a donation.
I just got my alma mater’s glossy annual report in the mail. It’s beautifully printed, full of fabulous photos . . . and scarcely a white male to be seen, other than a few wimps and a guy in a wheelchair. The place was built, staffed and attended post-WWII by white males, mostly veterans.
“conservative voices aren’t welcome at today’s universities”
Scott Adam is no “Conservative”. He’d be the first to tell you that, as he regularly does in his podcast.
What he is, is a Critical Thinker.
That, my fine feathered friends, is boundlessly more dangerous to The Left than any simple Cathedral tag a McCain/Romney/Jeb! could claim.
FYI: Hillsdale is establishing a campus near Sacramento CA (Placer County) and the local LEFTists have gone BALLISTIC! Attack phrases like 'extremist institution' and 'ultra conservative' have been used freely along with the LEFT's old reliable; 'extreme right wing'! The local news (rag?), the Sacramento Bee, had one of its luminaries, Hanna Holzer, do an op ed piece, “A conspiracy-peddling college is coming to Placer County,” 01/23/2022. Amongst her powerful points of critique was the fact that Placer County ALREADY had a Christian & conservative college a mere 30 minutes from Hillsdale's new campus! WOW!
Why should you support institutions that make it their business to foment hatred toward you and institutions you value and respect?
It is good, however, to support education. Three colleges worth considering:
College of the Ozarks
Hillsdale College
Patrick Henry College
