I have a feeling you will be seeing some changes coming to a lot of your private colleges, especially the Ivy leagues, but also the Public Ivys. They have already been dealing with blowback from increasing pressure from unfairness on admissions and super high tuition costs, far out stripping inflation, that when you delve deeper, has a component of making middle and upper class students pay the bulk of the full to near full tuition price so they can be more inclusive and give a lot of free to near free rides to lower income and more diverse students. In other words my public Ivy school I went to has a tuition and board cost 4 times than it was when I graduated in 1994 but is giving much more full rides and more diverse and has more lower income families. The cost of living has doubled so all in it should be 110-120k. That sounds all great until nolcloneJR got in this spring with no scholarship and we both decided the actual 250k it now costs just is not worth it when going to FSU will literally cost 5k a year all in due to prepay tuition, bright futures, and a 20k scholarship.
Basically another example of a pendulum swinging too far in the other direction. Many universities have already been aware their model has issues and are seeing issues as middle and upper class start sending their kids to better value in state schools and the lack of alum dollars pouring in from alumni over the last 15-20 years is dramatically going down from these policies. Beware of unintended consequences.
Definitely not a good situation and a black eye for a lot of these schools that will haunt them for years and years to come not tamping this down and letting third party rabble on campus to help enforce antisemitism on campus. Rather pathetic really, when all you have to do is arrest the trespassers and tell the students to leave or you are expelled.
