Hundreds Rally Against Sweeping Cuts at New School Around 40% of full-time faculty were offered buyouts and programs are on the chopping block as the university faces a $48M deficit.

"The New School is the only university in the country with a world-recognized art and design school and a Research 2 designation. By gutting the humanities, the administration is eliminating what makes the school unique."

I can (and do) explain the "law" behind Mahmoud Khalil's unlawful abduction and rendition to a for-profit concentration camp.
