Do people go to Cornell for agriculture and farming?

Who negotiated that deal? Noted Cornell alum Andy Bernard?

Fuck off Cornell. Who wants to send their kid to a school that bends a knee to a pedophile?

cowards

Fuck Cornell. We always knew they were a bunch of pussies!

Ivy League: ”As a Board of Trustee member, I will do anything, and I mean anything, as long as it furthers the corporate interests of Cornell, Inc.”

Paying for funding. Seems like they hooked up with the Nigerian Prince.

lol. Cornell is in the ag business?

Part is that they are compromised and agree with Trump

DID YOU KNOW THAT SOME IVIES ARE GOOD AND THAT SOME PUBLICS ARE BAD???? No, 19th century avatar guy with 336 followers, I actually just crawled out of a bog this morning

lol people don’t seem to understand that this isn’t capitulating, they’re aligning to class interests. Trump was in a room with >$1t net worth at his Inauguration. This is an administration by of and for the elite. Those elites come out of ivies.

They learned nothing about what happened after the elites in 1932 Germany made the same calls. (Or they don't care as long as they stay rich)

The rhetorical situation strongly suggests “feces,” I believe.

The whole thing is propaganda. Cornell has an ag school (A SUNY joint, not private) and likely spends that much on research already, and the 30M fine unlocks 240M in funding. It doesn’t make it any less craven, but it does make it a lot sillier.

100% this. The GOP needs a reminder “everything that you do to the Democrats or institutions you don’t like, can be done to you later.” So the GOP needs to knock it off.

I just do not get it! Giving in to the Don's autocratic play! I would not send my kids to Cornell.

🤷

Shit. Lame.

Disgusting. I want to be in sandwich guy’s team.

The mass public are resisting far more effectively and consistently than the elites.

Rolling over so you don’t have to worry no more.

Cornell giving in broke my heart. They proved themselves unworthy of trust, showed themselves to be cowardly boot lickers, and the stain will be permanent. He'll be gone soon...not soon enough, but soon. But Cornells dignity and respectability have been lost forever.

If we're honest, I never expected the billionaires in charge of the Ivy League to stand for anything. They love their tax breaks and need the gravy train to keep rolling.

He’s still going to look into them. I can’t. Will they ever learn?

But I hear Cornell’s alumni office has a great travel service!!!!! Worth the grabbing of the ankles, don’t you think?

Just when you thought the elite institutions understood the punchline, here comes one falling on its hind legs and letting itself be humiliated and essentially stripped of its prestige. It might as well be a free vocational school for high-school dropouts!

tony soprano would be proud at the unreasonable demands that turd has made . . . and he would also be disgusted by the weakness and cowardice that cornell has shown . . .

This got you a follower 💙

Cowards

👏👏👏

Maybe it was just Cornell’s strategy to remind people they are in the Ivy League.

The smartest universities are just reinforcing the stereotype that they’re all scared nerds avoiding getting stuff into a locker

I'd rather turn the whole government over to community college grads (Like me. I did get a bachelor's at a mid-level state university on company tuition benefits. Clue: It's a great way to get a degree without debt. It took eight years, but I did it.) than Ivy grads any day.

Are there any money experts on here that can explain why they would agree to pay half the amount they receive in grants back to the government? When they pay these “fines” where does that money get deposited? What are those funds allocated for? The journalism here is lackluster.

@cornellupress.bsky.social @upenn.edu @columbiaup.bsky.social The leadership of these a universities must be on Epstein’s list. What the eff are we paying you billions in tax dollars and then American students are strapped with a lifetime of debt??? #CollegeShouldBeFree

Infuriating

Another university caves to fascism.

Did the Ag school half of the university roll over on the Ivy League part of it? Or did the tweedy liberals just get played to provide funds for farmer research? The CUs of NYS are just the worst (sorry Colgate, not you).

How much of that $30 mil goes to a certain orange person’s pockets?

Maybe they’re just Trumpy

Why cave now? What are they afraid of? Less resources?

Hate to see higher education bend at the knees for this disgusting administration run by an orange draft dodger, liar, narcissistic, bully, grifter pedophile. RELEASE THE UNREDACTED EPSTEIN FILES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

What the hell is wrong with spending a few million on Agriculture programs (which it does anyway) in order to get billions to pay peoples’ paychecks? This seems like a huge win for Cornell.

Sad. Disappointing. Stand firm Harvard.

“Always defect”

yes lets make sure to constantly retreat and cede influence whenever we don't get our way.

Remains pretty wild that every elite institution in the country is just packed to the gills with Pierre Lavals.

for Cornell the Idiots

Can’t remember who said it but “Harvard is a hedge fund which happens to run a sideline in higher education.”

Cornell cowards

Land of the brave, eh?
