Weep only briefly, then get angry, then start using student college newspapers to vet and bust out the conflicts of interest of each and every professor and board member in each and every university. It's time consuming but will result in schoolwide outrage. Corporate universities will end up stealing art, invention patents and other knowledge and keep it inaccessible -- in so-called 'archives' --- from the rest of society, so there's that to be vigilant about.

Students need to fight for the university educations they pay so much for, untainted by corporate, market values. The monasteries saved much wisdom from the ancients. We must take their place and save what will be erased by corporate fascist owners as 'useful'/'not useful' to their ends. Students and this country deserve that.
