    He’s pulling support from the school that’s cracking down so heavily and violently on the protests? What’s he for I’m having trouble understanding the logic here.

      It’s easy. He wants more pressure, more punishment, also it’s a good excuse to get out now since colleges are doomed in the US due to reasons.

          Oh, the massive loan fraud situation, corporate poatching of talent and patents, the fact that most collages are run by a bunch of greedy, nepotistic fucks, whose concern for acedemia begins and ends with football teams.

          The slow moving enshitification has been going on for years, and soon people who want to be taken seriously in the market place will either avoid US collages altogether or go to foreign collages.

          Uni’s will be fine, but collages? Without management reform, we’ll be seeing a downward curve regarding their legitimacy - from an academic point of view, of course.

            Privatize everything free market capitalists have been chipping away at K-12 for some time now. Charter factories Schools are primo examples of divide and conquer public education.

      Nah he is sad they aren’t going harder on them

      Kraft echoed the sentiment in a statement issued through an organization he founded called the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism. “I am deeply saddened at the virulent hate that continues to grow on campus and throughout our country,” he wrote. “I am no longer confident that Columbia can protect its students and staff and I am not comfortable supporting the university until corrective action is taken.”
