Former University of Pennsylvania Board of Trustees Chairman Scott Bok penned an oped in the Philadelphia Inquirer arguing that wealthy donors should have limited influence in what happens at the schools they give money to.
Eric, well said! We must take charge of all aspects of our life before it is too late! Noticing the problem is one thing taking care, and responsibility of what is needed is essential. Keep up your important work.
Your observations about what’s happening on University campus nationwide are so spot on!
I shudder to think about the type of people these institutions are delivering to society, their character, their priorities and goals. Will they go through life seeing a micro aggression around every corner? Will they look at their employer as an antagonist who needs to be challenged at every decision? Will they continue to spew uneducated opinions about world events with no desire to learn true history? And what happens when they start to have children of their own? Will these myopic ways of living and thinking be passed on to the next generation – – – and the next? What happens to a society that is infected with so many negatively minded citizens who have never been exposed to the idea of love of country, true freedom of speech for all and peaceful coincidence.
Eric, I am so proud of who you are what what you have become. I am honored to say you are a friend!

Heavy sigh.
