friend, There are policy gaps that many institutions of higher education must address in order to ensure relationships with university donors are transparent and ethical. For instance: should prestigious institutions take money from people like financier and alleged sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein? Epstein’s relationship with both Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology paint a clear picture of how our nation’s leading universities are used by wealthy elites to increase their own power and whitewash their reputations, often at the expense of the public good. Take action now. Demand that these prestigious institutions normalize appropriate ethical and academic standards when considering financial donations. | |
UnKoch My Campus is a cooperative campaign dedicated to disrupting corporate influence on campuses nationwide by equipping campus activists with education, skills, and ecosystems of solidarity. The Koch network is leveraging its donations to colleges and universities to bolster its corporate agenda to halt action on climate change, put hundreds of thousands of people in prison, deny millions of people healthcare, and strip rights and wages from workers globally. We're building a mass movement of young people who are dedicated to disrupting this harm. | |
