Exceptionally terrible even in the current madness. As both a hypochondriac and fascismophobe this is extra hard to take.

Opinion | Trumpโ€™s โ€˜Compactโ€™ With Universities Is Badly Needed

Thank you @nytopinion.nytimes.com for publishing this rot. Marc Rowan has run hundreds of companies into the dust to extract profits from their failure and bankruptcies. Now he wants to do the same to American higher education. Do not believe a word this man says. 1/ www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/o...

This is the best piece I have read on the Compact:

05.10.2025 13:07 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 10    ๐Ÿ” 5    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Pressure to reject the compact should come from all sides:

Alumni, students, current employees, AND anyone who engages with people or work from the institution, high school students looking to attend, etc.

We say NO.
