The Republican said his administration will appoint new accreditors, who will impose real standards including "defending the American tradition in Western civilization, protecting free speech, eliminating wasteful administrative positions that drive up costs, incredibly, removing all Marxist diversity, equity and inclusion bureaucrats, offering options for accelerated and low cost degrees, providing meaningful job placement and career services, and implementing college entrance and exit exams to prove that students are actually learning".
He went on to reiterate his resolve to get the "anti-American insanity" out of institutions run on hundreds of billions of dollars from hard-working taxpayers.
Mr Trump also said he will direct the Department of Justice to pursue federal civil rights cases against schools that continue to engage in racial discrimination. Further, to penalise schools engaging in unlawful discrimination "under the guise of equity", he said he will bring in a law that will fine institutions up to the entire amount of their endowment.

There isn't any American institution that is world leading that will survive the next two years.
People have been throwing around the phrase "great depression" and I scoffed initially.
But I really think that's where we're headed. The ripple effects will take years to pass and when we emerge, we'll be far far worse off than we are now in every way possible.

First of all, that's not going to happen. Accreditation is largely independent and Trump can do almost nothing about it. Ironic though that Liberty and Hillsdale and Grand Canyon U (LOL) and Western Governors U (double LOL)can get BS "accreditation" while Trump is going to attack legit institutions, obviously for the only reason that they criticized him.
Higher education is already under attack because learned people vote Democrat; colleges by their very nature expose students to different cultures and ideas, and the students graduating are more accepting of these ideas. Google Florida or Texas and "higher education attacks" if you haven't heard or kept up.

higher ed is polluted by profs who never had a real job their entire life.....got undergraduate and
then straight through without getting out of the classroom.
---- brain washing is the real objective which is exactly why w4 saw results of it
with the support of hamas and the abuse of jewish students.
--..I know..............I worked with these people.
one department head was brilliant at his job /......he called me once and asked me to come over and
show him how to change the oil in his Cadillac...

Of course he is. By and large higher education is a liberal thing. It's not conservative.

This was to be expected. Dumb people are easier to control.
Have you read the posts for our ivermectin drinking Deplorable Trumping MAGAts?
They're a bunch of morons, and unfortunately, they're probably some of the more informed Deplorable Trumping MAGAts.
I know, that's not saying much.

His "poorly educated" followers won't even notice. I guess American companies will have to rely even more heavily on importing its highly skilled engineers, scientists and doctors.

It really needs it, look at all the students that owe so much money without any prospects.
Something needs to be done.

You don't really understand higher education do you?

What's a sad, pointless world we live in when the only purpose for education are the potential prospects.
Art, music, philosophy have given so much to humanity.

Kinda what happens when big tech is allowed to kill entire sectors of the economy and wall street is allowed to offshore jobs.
Wait til AI really arrives. Your job will be gone too and who will you blame then?

100% of the non-magat scum population voted for VP Harris.
In a couple of years you will not be able to find more than a few hardcore magat scum who will admit to have voted for -------------- a lot with republican presidents.
I bet after a week of the "new" ------- a good number of the magat scum are at least having serious doubts about who they voted for-just look at the "what is a tariff google search demographic"
