Absolutely ashamed of my alma mater…

it's only a matter of time before they rename Wharton to Trump (and then name a government policy program after Musk)

So frustrating and they have the resources to stand their ground, what does this mean for all of higher Ed 😭

This means that when they inevitably start coming for those of us whose very existence has been framed as DEI by this presidential administration that these institutions will throw us under the bus too

Every day I’m more ashamed of my Alma mater. However, the DP still rocks!

so sorry. this is brutal. i'm sure the administration feels there are "legitimate strategic reasons" to pursue this path, but it is so shortsighted and wrong headed.

They should be screaming from the rooftops about the value your scholarship adds to the university...
