As universities across the nation face increasing pressure to abandon merit-based admissions and embrace radical left-wing ideologies, Princeton University President Christopher Eisgruber has failed to stand up for the principles of individual achievement, free speech, and limited government interference in higher education.
While President Trump has taken steps to protect taxpayer dollars from funding biased research and to ensure that university admissions remain based on individual merit rather than identity politics, Eisgruber has capitulated to the progressive mob. Instead of defending the constitutional rights of students and faculty to express diverse viewpoints, Princeton has allowed itself to be held hostage by those who prioritize diversity quotas over academic excellence.
The stakes are indeed high, as Eisgruber acknowledges, but not in the way he suggests. The real danger lies in universities abandoning their commitment to fostering intellectual diversity, individual responsibility, and the pursuit of truth. By caving to the demands of a vocal minority who seek to silence dissent and impose their narrow worldview on others, Princeton risks betraying its core mission and the principles upon which our nation was founded.
It is time for universities like Princeton to stand firm in defense of free speech, meritocracy, and the values that have made American higher education the envy of the world. Only by resisting the siren song of identity politics and recommitting to the pursuit of knowledge and individual achievement can our universities continue to produce the leaders and innovators who will drive our economy and defend our liberties in the years to come.
