Trump administration investigating foreign funding on US campuses

WaEx:

The Trump administration is ramping up its investigation into the hundreds of millions in foreign funds pouring into U.S. campuses, according to a letter released Friday by the Department of Education.

Investigators launched inquiries in mid-June focused on the foreign money received by Georgetown University and Texas A&M University as the U.S. government steps up its efforts to track foreign influence on U.S. campuses. In an unusual move, the letters to both those schools were placed on the Federal Register earlier today.

The letters reveal the universities were ordered to produce years of financial statements amid concerns that previous filings from the two schools “may not fully capture” all of the money from “foreign sources” they’d been required to report. read more

  1. Our enemies have been busy both spying and polluting minds on campuses across the country.
    The professors wear chairman Mao hats and Che t-shirts and it hasn’t raised a single eyebrow among parents and alumni.

  3. Too bad this investigation didn’t start with Saudi Arabia about the time the seditious gay Kenyan commie, without a Bachelor’s degree, was conspiring for entry into Hawvud Law.

  4. @judgeroybean,
    it doesn’t need to start there, but the investigation could lead to that.
    Imagine all of obongo’s filthy past oozing out as testimony in this trial of foreign espionage

  5. So I see the scheme finally;
    Charge through the eyeballs to indoctrinate a generation to hate their country. Then refund their admission fee to the indoctrination camp.
    Make America pay for its own destruction.
    Pretty neat.

  6. I think this has more of a Intellectual Property twist to it. Our Military and first tier Defense contractors quite often work with top universities on “Pure Research” programs. Testing someones concept. That data is captured and passed along to whom ever requested it. Or paid for it. It would be treasonous if they were doing this for a foreign power. Like China.

  7. How about investigating domestic donations to Universities. Hell, how about dropping every dime of domestic funding to Private Universities and dropping the amount a student can borrow to attend them. In addition have the Public Universities undergo annual audits of the classes and course materials to ensure the the teaching is evenhanded and HONEST.
