19. Being hard by Hillsdale College.
Mon Aug 15, 2022, 06:56 PM
Aug 2022

After over 60 years observing Hillsdale College I say they are a fraud and professional grifters. They have about ruined my home town. College inspired projects have cost millions of dollars in a town that is above 30% poor people. Each of the projects dragged out for years one is finished but way over budget and only after the college cronies were removed from the project. One that is "in progress" has been stalled and no visible effort is being seen.

College minions forced out a good library director. Among other things they didn't want children to learn about the 2020 election. Hillsdale College paid Ginni Thomas to get things done from the inside. I have no idea if she still is a paid employee, but i know she was.
They sport graduates like Erik Prince who most would call a war criminal. Also Betsy DeVoss who if she didn't have money would be deemed an airhead. They now push this school curriculum that is Christian nationalist and teaches only part of our history.

They have orchestrated the debacle in Florida education and advocated teachers don't need any credentials to teach just a Christian bent and a little knowledge about something. They are a spreading cancer, that is well financed with corporate money of which they are awash. This is ventriloquist Larry Arnn speaking Lake is just his dummy.
