Donors have pulled back and incoming students have decided to go elsewhere in response to the firestorm that erupted from a professor’s racially-charged Facebook posts, Trinity College’s president said Monday.
Joanne Berger-Sweeney said 16 incoming students have withdrawn and past donors have chosen not to contribute to the school this year, resulting in about a $200,000 loss in donations. Both groups specifically cited the national uproar surrounding Professor Johnny Eric Williams’ posts, she said.

Headline hides the fact it was anti-white racism.
Leftism has its consequences.
Tucker Carlson’s school. Wonder if he was one of the donors who closed their checkbook this year?
Wow - too offensive to post so here it is - for some of you NSFW warning

Free speech is NOT free from consequence.
Let her keep driving that school into the ground, all in the name of ‘fairness’. Amazing that such an educated person chooses to remain blind to what’s going on. She will need to be talked to by the accountants.
They say donations are up by more than 28% and the teacher will be reinstated. Hardly any lasting damage.
He should have been put on a terrorist watch list.
I’m tired of the expression “........issues that divide us.”
If there are issues, it is because people like Williams and Berger-Sweeney continually throw gasoline on the fading embers of racism. It has been down hill since 1964, with “entitlement” attitudes, affirmative action, preferential treatment of certain classes. “Enough” is and never will be enough for many.
Better known as "Detroit Red" to his friends. Because of his Scottish ancestry.
Read the “professor’s” tweets.......he is no “professor in the legitimate meaning of the word. He is a street thug behind a desk.
Trinity, like other leftist institutions in the Northeast, is on the trajectory to becoming condos.
Unfortunately considering the neighborhood it is located in, it is more likely that it becomes public housing.
[he is no “professor in the legitimate meaning of the word. He is a street thug behind a desk]
Yeah, he thinks he’s a real radical hero. That’s why I put “professor” in quotes. Nothing more than a rioter.
Nice photo. Too nice. I toured Trinity when I was looking at colleges, some 35 years ago. My father and I also toured the surrounding neighborhood. I didn’t bother applying. The school is nearly surrounded by a no-go zone.
Interesting - I think this is but one who(whom?) Obama modeled himself after. And daddy Frank Marshall Davis - whoever his daddy was. We need Maury on the job here....(just kidding but actually bet the real answer would be a surprise - or not).
And of course those white racist privileged people are white racist privileged people.
Subject of the preposition “after”, therefore “whom”. Take the subordinate clause,
“who(whom?) Obama modeled himself after. “
This clause acts like an adjective, modifying “the one”.
Make it into a stand alone sentence:
Obama modeled himself after who/whom
Replace the relative pronoun who/whom with he/him and see which one sounds more natural:
Obama modeled himself after he/him
If it’s a he, use who, if it’s a him, use whom. Same idea with she/her.
