I heard universities have been closing entire staff departments because of the DEI cuts. Business schools all over the country do DEI research with government grants. That money is gone now.
NSF funding cuts, declining enrollment bcz of the ICE crap (people are afraid to come to the U.S.), covid funding issues still being felt, lots of government employees vying for university positions, attacks on science across the board forcing experts to leave the U.S., or go to the private sector. Its bad, and it’ll probably get worse.
Clearly this first hand experience clouding your judgement about what universities has been doing for the last 20 years…
The attack on science schtik does not resonate with people balls deep on student loans. But I do understand how proffesors and admin staff would shill it lol
Please, enlighten me on how 50% funding cuts to NASA science budget, and cutting NSF grant funding isn’t an attack on science? I’d also like you to further explain to me with your clearly superior big brain how banning all things considered DEI or climate change related, isn’t an attack on science…
Clearly, you know more about all the interworkings of this stuff than someone who is involved in this shit.
We are literally in the middle of one of the largest wealth transfers in history right now, driven by dipstick billionaires who are frothing and foaming at the mouth at the prospect of screwing this nation out of all scientific progress we’ve made, and you wanna tell me im a fucking sucker.
Universities were happy to fleece the students for decades… By jacking up tuition, over hiring parasitic admins and charging wildly fees for everything they could.
Now the universities have no good will left among the peasants.
Sure sucks NASA got defunded, gutted and transferred out to private sector.
But in the country where health insurance exists int he current form… Kinda hard to give a fuck about “the science”
Yeah, and? This was a conversation about the science. If you want to have a different conversation about how we dont have proper social safety nets, be my guest, and start a different thread elsewhere. You’re just changing the argument bcz you know you’re wrong.
I read they are rising taxes to Universities’ donations. In the political side, professors are… receiving too much attention from the government, to put it mildly.
Why are universities suffering?

Because enrollment is in structural decline due to demographic shift.
Bad reputation among working people due to cost and dubious results for about half of graduates.
Student loans reform is gonna hurt them the most though.
I’m assuming international students are staying far away from American universities at the current enrollment periods as well
To some degree sure but Foreign Nepo babies going to haaavard and other elites schools ain’t changing.
At best state and mid grade private schools targeting the foreign “Middle” class will take a hit as these people go to other Anglo countries
As with everything, there is a club
Yep degrees aren’t worth what they used to be. I regret mine really not worth it

Somebody drinking too much koolaid
Ya am I? Guess all that first hand experience with it must be a lie…

GTFO with your weak sauce arguments.
The wealth transfer started in 1980s…
Universities were happy to fleece the students for decades… By jacking up tuition, over hiring parasitic admins and charging wildly fees for everything they could.

People got to eat first ;)
