Once again, we have a wonderful argument for taking the federal government, or indeed any level of government, out of the financing of education altogether. Our higher education systems have become far too casual about accepting federal largesse while working at cross purposes to the American public, and we are expected to pay for it.

For decades, the federal government has been backing long lines of dump trucks full of taxpayer cash up to the Ivy League universities and dumping them out, and those universities responded by looking the other way as antisemitic agitators took over their campuses, as the curricula swelled with idiotic Ethnic Underwater Dog-Polishing Studies courses and even degree programs, and the faculty spent more time inculcating young skulls full of mush with Marxist claptrap than with instilling in those skulls knowledge and marketable skills.

Cutting that cash-green string is the right idea - in fact, it's the right idea regardless of the university's DEI policies or lack thereof, regardless of the school's curricula, regardless of the political affiliations of their faculty. Let the parents pay for their kids' education, or let the kids get part-time jobs or find some other way to pay. If they need to borrow money, let them present themselves to a private lending institution and make their case based on their academic record to date and their prospects for employment. Do all this, and the ridiculous classes and programs would disappear in a trice - as would a lot of the Marxist professors.
