Trimming the Ivy
Manage episode 480048396 series 2504968
As Trump exerts federal pressure from without, the culture of some Ivy League universities may be changing from within—or maybe not, as Harvard seems determined to fight the administration in court. The nation’s elite colleges have been dominated by a Jacobin spirit for decades, and now they seem committed to defending violent radicals. Will their prestige hold? This week, the guys sit down together (in person!) to diagnose the state of America’s universities, elites, and political system at large. The hour is late, but there is time yet to drastically rehabilitate the country. Plus: Claremont announcements, a listener question, and media recommendations!
