    I’ve lost so much respect for these colleges.
  • End federal funding for schools with 50 billion dollar endowments. Why are these institutions receiving a single penny of taxpayers' funds?

    Goodbye Harvard. You are the bottom of the Barrel. That's what happens when you become a Hedge fund and lost the status of an educational institution.
  • Stop fiancing Harvard. Take the money off the table - and "protesting" is no longer on the table.
  • These are the future Leaders of the country…..why do I not feel proud?

    They don’t realize that all the jobs are gone. When they wake up to reality the only thing they have to look forward to are the government breadlines next year
