Princetonians for Free Speech (PFS) today released a first-of-its-kind study showing that 98% of reported political contributions by current Princeton faculty went to Democratic candidates or affiliated groups during the 2023-2024 election cycle. Independents and their affiliated groups received 2% of contributions, while Republicans and their affiliated groups received none.PFS said the findings point to a near-total absence of viewpoint diversity among the university's faculty.
Stuart Taylor Jr., president of "Princetonians for Free Speech" and an RCP contributor, joined Tom Bevan, Friday on the RealClearPolitics podcast, to talk about the Trump administration’s decision to suspend hundreds of millions of dollars in grants to Princeton.

The issue has been punted to the “Campus Art Steering Committee” to decide whether the statue should be moved, or removed.

Excerpt: The lists of “top colleges” have varied little in many years. They always include the Ivies, Stanford, MIT, Cal Tech, etc. But that could change. Colleges of all types can differentiate themselves on the core values of free speech and academic freedom, and those that do will increasingly attract more and better students, faculty, and employment opportunities for their graduates.
