      The walls appear to be caving in around the University of Pennsylvania’s president, Liz Magill, who faces scathing criticism over her performance at a House hearing earlier this week.

      Prominent donor Ross Stevens threatened to claw back a $100 million donation. The university’s board of trustees held an emergency meeting Thursday. And the powerful Wharton Board of Advisors that leads the university’s prominent business school called for a leadership change at the university.

        One wonders how Amy Wax feels about all this.

        Education is extremely important.

          Sometimes, the lawyers aren't right.

          “Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”

          Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

            Are MIT and Harvard seeing similar blowback?

            Or was Magill SO FAR beyond the pale on this?

            The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
