Non-Trump University

Chance Layton

In an article published by PJ Media, NAS President Peter Wood employs the “bait-and-switch” Trump University engineered to attract hopeful real-estate moguls as a juxtaposition for the deteriorating condition of American higher education. From the American university’s first failures to contemporary renditions of this old relic, Peter Wood traces the tumbling of the progressive mindset as its runs far ahead with little thought to what’s left behind. He synthesises this discussion into the story of "Non-Trump University."
