[FRIAM] Inside Trump’s Pressure Campaign on Universities - The New York Times

[cody dooderson]

I don't have access to that article, but I did read the letter from the
White House to Harvard. I found it to be a sickening use of doublespeak.
For instance, It demands for a critical mass of approved "ideologically
diverse faculty", and then in the next paragraphs demands the removal of
all DEI programs and policies. Presumably "Ideologically diverse" means
"MAGA republicans" and "DEI" means "people who are not white men".


Here is a link to it:
