Sometimes I'm sad that I will never be as funny as my student who, in response to a Latin quiz question asking them to decline a 2nd declension noun, wrote: "no thanks"

@apollojustus@eknielsen Please know that I paid no attention to this when I scrolled past it (other than appreciating the A+j+ kangaroo picture) but when I got to the picture of the dog I was like OH YES NAME IT ROO. and only THEN saw that it was originally in response to the q.

This is an extraordinary letter from the federal government to @Harvard. It goes far beyond anything the Obama and Biden administrations did in their unlawful Title IX dictates.
The feds are essentially demanding Harvard become a vassal institution. In such an arrangement, there will be no free speech or academic freedom rights, and there will be ideological litmus tests for who gets hired or admitted.

The feds cannot condition federal funding on a private university giving up its First Amendment rights.
This is big government "conservatism," plain and simple.
