The cynic's version of the Golden Rule: "He who has the gold makes the rules." If universities are going to be dependent on federal money, they have to dance to the tune the federal government called.

We see that as a negative now, when Trump is calling the tune. But that does raise a question: How much of the liberalism and DEI at colleges was because that was the tune the feds were calling at that time? How much of it wasn't the universities' own desire?
