Intelligent students ? Put in concentration camps or deported or imprisoned in a foreign country.

I realize you're only talking about a relative handful of non-citizen students at the moment, but without due process and imminent suspension of habeas corpus by the usurper king's administration, a chill ran through me thinking they could come for anyone everyone holding or seeking a college degree... Somehow the leaders of the death cult will, of course, get a pass. I really fear we may be at the precipice of our own great leap forward.

On the other side, don't believe this administration when they claim to have restarted funding. For example, the funding for the Women's Health Initiative has not been restored, though that was promised.

Why hasn't a kickstarter been put together for WHI yet? There's no need for government funding for such a small project. The price of a fancy latte for the wealthiest 1% OF WOMEN. I'm definitely willing to put money down for it.
Please don't start saying this unless you are joking.. there's a reason we need independent funding of research.

yeah, I was afraid of this happening on a large scale. on a small scale, it will and is happening to keep local programs running. as it should. but for large projects, large studies, it really should not happen. this is different than funding universities to keep their research and staff and faculty employed.

Don’t forget those four trans athletes competing in college.
