So never sending my kids to Columbia, got it.

Despite apparently being just the right place for it, Columbia won't be having "Dictatorship 101" courses.

Honestly anybody involved in the US university system saw it coming. Academia has been run by a bunch of spineless cowards who will always look the other way if it gets them grant funding, at least for the decade I've spent in and around it. The Colombia thing is bad because it shows future potential students how spineless US universities are.
