I’m not as familiar with Dartmouth, but I’m guessing it has fewer than that.

Will colleges somewhat close to the 3,000 mark (Princeton, Dartmouth) start making fewer students “tuition-paying” (e.g., by taking more students w/ need and giving them full tuition grants)

06.04.2025 00:06 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0The only relevant political point is that Republican members of Congress are all supporting these tariffs 100%. They could stop them at any moment. Each day is on them. Everyone with a messaging bullhorn needs to make that clear. They can pull the plug now or pay the price at the polls next year.

If you saw them take food out of the mouths of starving children overseas, would you stop being their friend? If so, stop being their friend, because their support for Trump is taking food out of the mouths of starving children overseas.
