‘Defund’ higher education

To the editor:

It was reported last week that North Korean defector— Yeonmi Park—is astonished at the anti-Western forced thinking, trigger warnings, safe spaces, preferred pronouns, and political correctness she encountered as a student at Columbia University, saying “even North Korea isn’t this nuts.”

Park cannot believe she was asked to do “this much censoring of myself” at a U.S. university and observes that Americans seem willing to give their rights away, not realizing they may never come back.
