Education Corruption, Malfeasance and Disinformation
- Thread starter GURPS
- Start date
Orchard Hills School District sent out an email to parents asking to have their kids participate in a "California Healthy Kids Survey" which includes questions asking about student's gender identity, if they're transgender, and what their sexual orientation is.
Strip them of their funding immediately
Neenah Joint School District (@NeenahSchools) Superintendent Steve Harrison reportedly sent an email to board members informing them that the district will continue pushing DEI initiatives under a different name to avoid losing federal funding.
This school is trying to cover up their DEI indoctrination. They should be investigated and stripped of their funding.
Over 165 school employees have been arrested or sentenced so far in 2025 on charges relating to child sex crimes.
We have a massive pedo crisis in our schools.

Harvard Freezes
The Trump administration’s pulling of $400 million in grants and contracts has reverberated through the world of higher education. Harvard has announced a hiring freeze, although they don’t quite call it that. The language is turgid, but the point comes through:Yes, we now have an administration that is opposed to anti-Semitism.
So, a hiring freeze.
Is the Jig Up for Elite Higher Education?
But in their hubris, the universities began a series of blunders that may now end them as they once were.
They began gouging government agencies such as the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation by grabbing anywhere from 30% to 60% of individual campus grants as “overhead.”
Yet they usually charged most private foundation grants a far more modest 15% surcharge—as if a lax government did not object to overcharging.
They pushed for a vast expansion of the student loan program, whose portfolio of federally guaranteed loans reached $1.7 trillion. But once the federal government guaranteed student loans against default, universities began jacking up their fees and tuition well above the annual rate of inflation.
Elite universities did not grasp that the more they began warping their curricula with DEI gut courses, radical green agendas, and postmodern race and gender theories, the less time they had to offer students their once gold-standard general education curricula of Western Civ, history, literature, philosophy, math, and science.
Soon employers started to notice that the new therapeutic courses were also married to race and sex-based admissions.
The SAT and ACT were, for a time, dropped. So were comparative rankings of high school grade point averages.
Soon, once iconic degrees were no longer any guarantee of the ability to write and speak well, think analytically, or compute competently.
Employers often began to prefer graduates from those state schools where DEI was muted, admissions were competitive, and teaching remained rigorous and non-ideological.
Finally, after Oct. 7, 2023, growing antisemitism on campuses became unapologetic, overt, and violent.
Thousands of Middle Eastern guest students brazenly cheered on Hamas terrorists.
The campus Marxist orthodoxy that Jews and Israel were “victimizing white people” and Palestinians were noble “non-white victims” ensured that Jewish students were chased and physically attacked on campuses.
A disgusted public watched invertebrate administrators either greenlight the antisemitic violence or ludicrously deny it.
So, there was bound to be a public reckoning. And now it has arrived.
Congress will soon pass legislation that will tax the annual multimillion-dollar income from multibillion-dollar endowments at somewhere between 15% and 20%.
There will be no more “overhead” or “surcharges” on government campus grants allowed larger than 15%.
Those two reforms alone could cost some of the richest campuses nearly a half billion dollars a year in lost income.
Racially offensive DEI programs will disqualify schools from federal support.
Foreign student guests who break U.S. laws or violate university rules will have their visas yanked and be shown the door to go home.
Campuses will have to abide by the First, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments of the Bill of Rights or forgo federal funds.
All these remedies enjoy broad public support.
