Lose a pace, and I was not about to use my retirement money and my Social Security to pay Harvard's lawyers.

We see that universities are no longer respected institutions. In fact, I've seen some surveys where a majority of parents and students say that a college education is not a good investment. And I think it has to do with the fact that we see just so much chaos and dysfunction coming from academia. I would say some of the worst ideas that have impacted our society came out of academia.

We occasionally get lists of National Science Foundation or National Endowment of the Humanities studies that were funded of ludicrous ideas that were funded using taxpayer dollars. And in the case of plagiarism, you know, most people who are educated and you don't have to have a college degree. I believe they start teaching about plagiarism in middle school.

And certainly by the time you're in high school, you know about citing sources and what's permissible and what isn't. And so that's always been the standard. You don't steal other people's intellectual property. But when it started disadvantaging elite institutions, they have started redefining the rules. And there have been plenty of white plagiarists.

You know, we can name Doris Kearns Goodwin and Stephen Ambrose, Kevin Cruz. And these are some people that were caught. In fact, I dedicate my book to these people for drawing attention to the problem of plagiarism.

But DEI seems to have worsened it in the sense that many of the people that Christopher Ruffo and Aaron Burnett identified happened to be racial and ethnic minorities and universities just turned a blind eye to it.

I think with AI that it writes in a particular kind of style and it may take more work on the part of the professor, but I believe that you can craft assignments or identify which papers are written by AI. And it's going to be more difficult.

I think what we need to do is somehow bring back a sense of integrity, moral ethics to the whole enterprise of academia, because right now it's in a sad state. And for people whose kids, you know, get into the Ivy League, they want to brag about it. Those are not bragging points anymore.

Your child is better off probably going to a state university where they adhere to traditional approaches to education than they are at an Ivy League school where they think they are morally superior to everyone else and they turn a blind eye to violations of traditional norms.

Well, I'd like to speak to Harvard alumni and people who care about the Ivy League, because whether we like it or not, and I hope this changes, most of our Supreme Court justices and newspaper editors, people in powerful positions are educated at Ivy League institutions. I would like to see Ivy League institutions make a commitment to high standards.

And one of the things that they all need to do, and not just the Ivy League, I would recommend every college or university that's been in existence for more than 100 years read the founding documents, the mission statements, the visions of the people who decided that they wanted to create that particular institution, because they have lost all sense of where they came from, any sense of purpose.
