I wonder if this is the first salvo in a renewed attack on universities from the right. Sentiment toward universities shifted very recently, with a majority of republicans now saying that universities are, on the balance, bad for America. http://www.newsweek.com/republicans-believe-college-education-bad-america-donald-trump-media-fake-news-634474 http://www.newsweek.com/republicans-believe-college-educatio... This is interesting, in part, because universities have been left leaning places for some time, and republicans until recently still saw them as a net positive. Universities are a net positive, of course - the research at universities is amazingly valuable. UCSF has a negative effect on America? Woah. Do they actually know what goes on in the chemistry, CS, or physics department at Berkeley? Unfortunately, I believe that there is some merit to the notion that universities are becoming intolerant and actively hostile places toward conservatives and republicans, though I am neither, myself. And that stuff makes for great headlines - I can believe that something has been blown out of proportion on Fox News while agreeing that it is a legitimate concern.
