VDH UltraTreat the University as It Is Now, Not as It Once Was

Victor Davis HansonEeyore’s Cabinet The following assessments and suggestions for change are not exaggerations about higher education in America. Universities are now openly political agents, not disinterested places of learning.

Victor Davis Hanson Optimism, Inc. A Naturally Diverse Town Do not believe that the current social justice world began with the university’s ‘diversity, equity, and inclusion’ industry.
