At the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma, Professor Jacob Howland writes in City Journal, “a new administration has turned a once-vibrant academic institution with a $1.1 billion endowment and a national reputation in core liberal arts subjects into a glorified trade school with a social-justice agenda.” Speaking with Seth Barron, Howland describes how, in early April, TU’s new administration announced a wholesale reorganization of academic departments, including the elimination of traditional liberal arts majors. Students and faculty have responded by organizing protests and launching a petition to “save the heart and soul of the University of Tulsa.”

Had actually read Professor Howland’s article which was interesting but disheartening. I would say that the Kaiser Foundation and U of Tulsa symbiosis reeks of corruption but will anyone in Oklahoma investigate it? Also why do all these foundations go leftist? Sigh.
