The college was disappointed not be on the presidents list of universities to be part of the “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education.” We have done everything possible to communicate our compliance! Make in the next round!

I really wish reporters would stop saying that there is an effort by the Trump administration to combat antisemitism. It is quite the opposite. There is an effort to foment antisemitism. forward.com/fast-forward/714…
