It's time to stop fighting lose-lose culture wars and doing performative virtue signaling. Let's focus on the real challenges facing Ohio public colleges and universities. New civics centers -- like Chase at OSU -- are showing us how! dispatch.com/story/opinion/…

In a sea of bad takes & talking heads dunking on those out of power this is a great piece - as a graduate of a flagship and an elite uni, not really surprising, but it's solid work: The Surprising Role of Public Universities in Forging America's Leaders educationnext.org/the-surprising…

How quickly power corrupts. If you care about creating a culture of authentic open inquiry in higher education, you owe it to yourself to read every word of this article by Ellie Avishai.

The red-green alliance is real. It will kill and destroy until it is dismantled. It exploits freedoms to stoke chaos. ANSWER Coalition sponsored protests in DC, where am American Muslims for Palestine leader wrote HAMAS IS COMIN. A Party for Socialism and Liberation Durham, NC, leader burnt a U.S. flag at the protest.

Second antisemitism resolution passes. 400-0-2. Two present votes: Rashida Tlaib Marjorie Taylor Greene

Something is deeply wrong at Harvard. Appeasing radicals on campus is apparently more important than safeguarding the students being hunted. Read my latest in RealClearEducation: realcleareducation.com/articles/2025/…

The “globalize the intifada” movement has ignited a powder keg of terror and violence against Jews in America—from the firebombing of a Jewish governor’s home, to the cold-blooded assassination of an Israeli and Jewish couple, to a Molotov cocktail hurled at Jews demanding the

I am profoundly alarmed about the future of the Democratic Party and the country by yesterday’s NYC anointment of a candidate who failed to disavow a "globalize the intifada" slogan and advocated Trotskyite economic policies. I fear it is evidence that our party is following the most

We don't talk enough about how the antisemitic 'artists' also really suck at art. Kneecap? Bob Vylan? Macklemore? Absolute garbage. And yes, Kanye sucks too. Talent in art & politics is highly related. youtu.be/-ETdLfXI6r8?si…

His inability to say that Karen Diamond was brutally murdered by an Islamist terrorist attack because she was Jewish tells me everything I need to know.

When I was at BU, I wanted to bring Cornel West & Robert P. George for a major event on their friendship & liberal arts. As a favor & to help them, I asked a department if they wanted to cosponsor by contributing a nominal amount. They'd get credit & it would cost almost nothing.

It's astonishing how far the The New York Times has fallen. No accountability, no shame.

Seems like a good time to re-up this goodie. "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can even do much to help it. While it lies there it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it."

Columbia, Brown, & Penn have settled. Cornell and Harvard are reported to be next. UCLA, Northwestern, George Mason & others may soon follow. Some academics are mystified by why their leaders would settle or attribute it to cowardice. But settling makes sense. Here's why. 🧵1/
