University administrators across the nation are warning that Columbia University’s compliance with the Trump administration’s demand for sweeping policy changes — with $400 million in federal funding on the line — may have a chilling effect on academic independence.

“There are enormous fears among universities all across the country as to what’s going to come,” said Erwin Chemerinsky, dean of the law school at the University of California at Berkeley. “I think it just emboldens the Trump administration to go after more universities in the same way.”

 
Universities capitulated to what we now call the WOKE in the 1960's said Allen Bloom in The Closing of the American Mind...and WOKE is very clearly a death cult.

In the last 15 years they have barely even tried to hide their totalitarianism.

“I’m worried that the university’s decision could change how civil rights enforcement works,” Erickson said. “If the Trump administration can declare by fiat that the university is in violation of Title VI protections and withhold funding on that basis — without due process or review — every school district in this country could potentially be told that they are in violation of civil rights law and asked to negotiate.”
