@kissel_adam It is treated as an “entitlement” if significant portions of annual budgets include expected payment. I’d like to know if that is the case with Columbia.

@alancornett Each of those locations was a “small place.” And they needed to know their own small place so well they could connect it to other small places. Real entrepreneurs are not so much risk takers as they can cross innumerable cultural frontiers.

@alancornett I’m still hoping to learn how much the big DC and NOVA law firms skimmed off of the USAID grants. They did to those grants what universities do to theirs.

@kissel_adam No STEM or nursing program brings net revenue to an institution without external funding, grants, patents, or major partnerships. They are cost leaders that generate positive public attention. Gen ed, comms, normal math, and humanities keep the lights on.

Abolishing the US Dept. of Ed would be an amazing political feat. But decentralizing its programs, boards, grants, and councils to other federal agencies will undermine the achievement. Stripping professional and academic accrediting bodies of their power must be the path forward

@IVMiles It’s difficult to see a vision from the Trump folks not because they are devoid of one. But they first have to deal with decades of “stupid.” Maybe once that’s under control, smart things will come first.

@IVMiles Most helpful is understanding how former southern leaders of the defunct Whig Party used secession to mount a counterrevolution if not a coup that kept their ilk in power for the next hundred years or more. And yes, they very much used that position for empire building.
