universities are far and away better than any other universities in the world.ut i think a lot of that has to do with the performance of our hard science departments that constantly when all of these nobel prizes, continuously make discoveries leading to great innovation in technology and in the economy and i don't think they are ranking them based on the quality of their english faculties or history departments. one of the few things that gives me great confidence, when i review the applications of foreign students -- we get thousands of applications from china -- every time i see a chinese students transcript i see marxist leninist thought one, required class. then i think -- maybe we will stay ahead of them for a few more centuries if every student in china is forced -- but then i wonder -- maybe it's a good idea for berkeley, maybe they will start requiring marxist and leninist thought at american universities and our great advantage will disappear. >> i would like to weigh in on what seems to be your conflation -- racially inspired admissions and gender ins

universities. the number of administrators soared much faster than faculty, all paid very large salaries. and that's true. however, there is a second part of it, which is -- and there has been a little bit of work on this, it made the press, even the new york times, the administrators tend to be even worse than the faculty when it comes to derange radicalism. and that's because a lot of these, the deans of diverse taken inclusion, which -- remember the diversity on a college campus means people look different but think the same. and a lot of them are drawn from some of the more politicized and ideological departments. and so, you know, your average college liberal professor is relatively sane compared to a lot of administrators, that's especially true at private liberal arts colleges. sally made mention of the oberlin college verdict and if you're not following it closely, you might be wondering why did the court find a college, a private college liable for the actions of students off campus. and o

what about the rest of the universe?chnically we should put them in you may think that doesn't matter but we call the rest of the university environment that is a technical term to mean the entire rest of the universe that we are not keeping track of everything so we are in a room with lights and photons and molecules in the air i don't know the polite velocity and position of every adam i would even know if they changed it inside and outside the box if that starts out it interacts with the environment right away before you open the box with the state and that system becomes entangled with the environment. so that way function is in that superposition so was the cat awake then you open the box that is the measurement process so this is a true wave function of the universe and then the cat is asleep so why does that matter in the slightest because they keep the environment in their. it has nothing to do with the human being or with a video camera or an earthworm. and then to become entangled with the outside world to beco

last, i want to say thank you to my beloved alma mater, howard university. [cheering] i learn ou learned our motto, tn the service. that history and legacy is what brings me here today. i have the honor of serving our country in the highest office of our american government as a deputy assistant tthedeputy asse president of the united states. [applause] today i would like to tell you what i know to be true about president of trump. recently a close friend asked me to brief a group of african-american interns on the hill and in that conversation i was asked to describe president trump in three words and without hesitation, i replied it was funny, he has the biggest heart and he's old-school. in my role i get to see a side of president trump that is not always covered in the media. i see a person who loves his country and loves our people. the president did not run on helping them but he did promise to help the forgotten communities which i've witnessed him do time and time again. for example, i was on the team that was working on passing the first step act.

the university of chicago was interested, sort of. became clinton's national labs early in 1947, and then oak ridge national labs in 1948. they used a lot of buildings at y-12. aec wanted to give the reactor work to argon. but there were protests by lab staff around that time, and the oak ridge institute of nuclear studies. orins. we will talk about them in a couple of minutes. the reactor work did not leave ornl. it got bigger and got better. alan weinberg was there. the sweet talking genius. work continued on the high flux reactor that was renamed the materials test reactor and completed in idaho with some parts being built in y-12. it began moving into y-12 buildings in 1948. some of the y-12 divisions whend into ornl in 1950, ornl's staff level was 3600. by the way, these are girl scouts walking behind the graphite reactor. you can see the water tower over here, the two chimneys, the water tank, the graphite pile, 1951. girl scouts coming into use it. but, hold onto your seats. there was bureaucracy. this shocks everyone, i know,

that universities should be doing the job of the saying that universities should be doing thejob ofents doing the job of the nhs. a lot of parents watching the report we ran a few moments ago will be worried if their young adults are just going off to university to the first time duff for the first time or if they show any signs of concern, how can you reassure them or indeed can you reassure them that they are getting their mental health support they need if they are at university? these days, universities are really well set up for mental health support and well—being generally. they are running significant programmes around preventing issues, so building networks when they first arrive, getting them to meet each other, getting them to talk to each other, getting them to talk to each other and reach out early if they need support. and universities have also been improved notjust the support they give to the whole population of students, but also to their individual students who need more support. they are investing more support. they are investing more in counselling services and

with an ethics problem as of late liberty university one of the world. largest christian colleges in existence and this president jerry falwell jr is alleged to have used his father's legacy to make some sweet sweet real estate money on the side in a new report from politico it's alleged that falwell jr has been using the university as essentially a real estate hedge fund according to contracts the falwell's personal trainer bought an entire sports center valued at over $2000000.00 from liver vivre university for only 580 $1000.00 all of which was financed at a 3 percent interest rate by liberty university in addition as a nonprofit liberty university is not allowed to engage in what they call political campaign activity or they'll be at risk of losing their i.r.s. tax breaks which is what the school is now facing as it was revealed again that they also sold t. shirts and hats with the liberty university logo and trump's logo and motto for a 20 $7000.00 trump speech at the university so hawk watchers if these 2 colleges don't make us rethink our love aff

the university of chicago was interested, sort of. it became clinton national lab early in 1947 heard that oak ridge national lab in 1948. they used a lot of buildings at y 12. aec wanted to get they reactor work to argon. but there were protests by lab staff and the oak ridge institute of nuclear studies. orins. we will talk about them. the reactor work did not leave ornl. it got bigger and got better. ellen weinberg was there. -- alan weinberg was there. the sweet talking genius. work continued on the high flux reactor renames the materials reactor and completed at idaho. 12began moving into why fillings in mid 1948. some why 12 divisions merged in 1950,l -- ornl. ornl staff level was 3600. walkinge girl scouts behind the graphite reactor. you can see the water tower, the tank,imneys, the water the graphite pile, 1951. girl scouts coming into use it. but, hold onto your seats. there was bureaucracy. know, toks everyone, i think there was bureaucracy with the army. notes, they even reviewed book titles added by the library. by monsan

an answer to the university, because what -- when university started, it was originally -- it was the first college in the united states. it was under this act. and it was here, and it was the first university to study agriculture. so it's always been an agricultural school. so it was out here in the middle nowhere. and they had to have housing for faculty. and then the students and all that. so east lansing has actually built up around michigan state university. so this is, on the right-hand coming intokind of campus. it's a huge campus. phenomenal.is so you'll see a lot of green space on here. it's really beautiful. >> ok. lori, so we've been all around lansing.nd east we've seen the university. we've seen the state capitol. , if somebody lives in nevada. they don't know anything about lansing and michigan, what would knoweally want them to about your city? >> i would like them to know a government just city. and it's not just a car city. not just -- it's a fun place. it's real. and honest. gritty. and genuine. i think that's the biggest word, is genuine. i think it's a genuine city

a majority of republicans support universal background checks. a majority of nra members inn ohio support universal background checks. the only people don't are members of this body in that tiny group of nra professional lobbyist. it's not nra members that are stopping background checks from passing for its narrow group of millionaire nra highly paid professional lobbyist. that's why we can't pass it. that's what we that happen. the mayor and i as president trump capacity he said i'm going to do big things. we're going to do big things and six this. then we find later at thet hospital and president trump went around the hospital with the first lady and they were kind and generous and empathetic, i believe. with the patients that were there. the patients and the people who were injured and the family members. and then we met the police officers, six heroic police officers. we thanked him profusely all of us for the courage in saving lives. then we walked out of the room, the government and other senator from ohio and the local congressman, the may

at the university. so hawk watchers if these 2 colleges don't make us rethink our love affair with higher education and it's an ethical ties to the very people who are selling off the value of education brick by brick i'm not sure what will. boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy why i don't even know where to begin and what i'm looking at everything that you laid out at these 2 major you know places of science and education higher learning in the just rocks my mind to think that they just now will take the money you know when you get up steam sing it's like oh mighty one homeowners keep it secret you know don't mention the jeffries involved but let's just take as much money as possible at a brokered deal then look at the other side and it's even worse you know when you think about overseas all those this idea that mit is a sort of liberal bastion of you know climate change science and tech and all of that liberty university is this ethical wonderful place and the truth is joy ito who is the one

the roll—out of universal credit...sal credit. you're not being clear about what you will replace it with or where the money will come from. we are being very clear with what we will replace it with. we are saying that we would develop a new social security system and would have an interim period where we can actually use statutory instruments, secondary legislation, ministerial direction... what does that mean to people? with they have the same payment? to change the way that universal credit works so that they will have a faster payment, we will get rid of the bedroom tax, we will get rid of the bedroom tax, we will be able to end the two child limit, which has pushed many children into poverty. these are quick fixes that we do not need legislation to introduce. then we will bring forward a package of reforms for a new social security system in due course. 0k, reforms for a new social security system in due course. ok, but it is not entirely clear what it is just yet? well, we have been very clear about the changes th

university. of north carolina. signed on to a certain set of criteria and the government is just simply enforcing. and they did not like dismissed their agreement you're just simply saying hey we want things done a certain way and i think what we have is 2 very different cultures that don't quite understand each other completely. i'll jump in if that's helpful and just explain what title 6 grants even are so there are these grants that the federal government the u.s. department of education dispenses to international education and language education programs and universities nationwide and one of the conditions of getting this funding is that these recordings that resource centers like the middle east at the center must present a quote unquote full understanding of the region or area in which they're focused so one of the core concerns of the department is that they are that the u.n.c. duke center is not promoting a full understanding of the middle east region by not presenting enough positive aspects of religious

[applause] our historical black colleges and universities it universities have always challenge our nation better and braver to do what is right. to dream bigger and aim higher and always be bolder in pursuit of what is just decent and true. hbcus represent only 3 percent of americans higher education institutions. you get graduates 80 percent of african-american judges, 40 percent african-american engineers, and more than 50 percent of african-american doctors. that is an incredible statement from 3 percent overall to 50 percent and more doctors. that is an incredible statistic. come back an incredible achievement. my administration is deeply devoted to advancing this amazing legacy of success commitment and contribution to our nation. you have never set up working to improve this country and you do. we put the government, you just have to keep going, you really do deserve a government that never stops working for you. you never stop working for it as well. you know amazing people in this room. incredible people and i congratulate you for it. [applause] that is why in my first weeks in of

universities?hat possibilities does this close off? what students will be criminalized if they stand up and protest? against the charles murray's of the world, against richard spencer, milo yiannopoulos of the world. students that are using of course their speech engaging in rowdy speech, conflicted speech. how do we draw these lines between what is acceptable and what is in question how do we draw lines between what is platforming, in other words, elevating someone to and invited paid platform, and how is it we engage in these questions? but these are fundamentally major questions. battle in terms of consequence, the material consequences are clear. the material impact of what white supremacist speech is a violent spirit we know the purpose of will. just as the imperial impact of donald trump and the white house is violet and an uptick in white supremacist, arm training camps for nazis and fascism in the pacific northwest of forces that need to be physically defeated. it's also material in thinkin

, some of the. ,e invest less in the universe probably. we invest a huge part of our health care dollar in that management. we see it as ideologically superior because it is private , but we also like the economic benefit. changing that is really going to brokering oformous economic interests, so that the private insurance industry could accept the change. it is one reason i personally more -- i think a stabilized plan is likely to work because they are not going to go away like that. maybe you want to make a -- beatrix: if we want health care to be more affordable, it is difficult to see a role for private insurance as it now exists. the system besides ours that include a role for insurance companies, most of them are actually nonprofit. they are private, but they are nonprofit. profit motive the will obviously be a major way of reducing costs, it will reduce administrative costs and overhead. so i think i am more leaning towards thinking that private insurance, it will be very hard to find a solution through that entity. especially becau

i'll give this one to you could these universities just give the money back. great that's a great question because actually there are examples so the requirements around title 6 grant funding have come more stringent recent years and there's a really prominent example harvard university's middle east studies center no longer accept federal funding because it decided we don't want to comply with the more stringent federal requirements so is there do they have to receive this federal funding note this is a $235000.00 annual grant for u.n.c. and duke's middle east studies center they could choose to raise that money from private sources or to seek other funding opportunities i think the question is also they so the department of education in its letter raised a couple of events points that it found problematic about the middle east in the center and can you can see universities have said actually the things that you found problematic we don't even use federal funding for those particular activities or programs and so you can see and you will use federal funding f

from the university of south carolina during its integration period during reconstruction. again my father is an alu alum f the university of alabama and i thought i knew the history of the segregation in the united states. i'd not. i thought what else don't i know? the police forces of charleston and new orleans were desegregated in this period. i didn't know that the streetcar systems were both segregated and i decided i should really read a book about the subject. that is a pretty big gap in my knowledge and it turned out that there was no book so it became if you want to read this but you have to write it. i took the project on and realized that i had bitten off, more than i could chew. i went to the university that had at the local school board record i could read the records from this period and i came across this ledger. for this strict limits for the years 1862 to 1863 correspondence from 1865 to 1870 and then 1877 to 1878. the period i wanted to write about was 1870 to 1877, the period that was missing and literally in the dark which is a record copied and single-h

was as an answer to the university because when the university started it was originally, it was the first land-grant college in the united states under this moral act and it was here and it was the first university to study scientific agriculture so it's always been an agricultural school so it out here in the middle of nowhere and they had to have housing for faculty and then the students and all that so east lansing has built up around michigan university. >> on the right-hand side for coming in the campus. it's a huge campus. it's, the acreage is phenomenal. so you'll see a lot of green space on here. it's really beautiful. >> we've been all around lansing and east lansing. we seen the university, we've seen the state capital. he lives in reno nevada, they're far away from the midwest. they don't know anything about lansing michigan. what would you want them to know about your city? >> i'd like them to know that it's not just a government city not just a car city and it's not just, it's a fun place. it's real and honest and gritty and genuine. i think that the biggest word is gen

but then in time they would also get rid of the system of universal credit completely.hadow work and pensions secretary. we're going to be scrapping universal credit and going to be replacing it with a social security system that has respect at its heart and that tackles poverty. because everywhere universal credit has been rolled out, we've seen very serious problems. we've seen people going into debt, people going into rent arrears. some people even facing eviction as a result of it. we think the system really is too flawed and it has to be scrapped. what labour is not saying is exactly what it would replace it with however. and even some of universal credit‘s main critics in the other parties think that you are better to reform the system rather than replace it completely. so i think there will be a lot of questions for jeremy corbyn on exactly how he is going to set up a completely new benefit system. just before we move on to what might be coming up this week, what is the politics of wanting to scrap universal credit? are they trying to shore up their core vote ? a

they paralyze the university.hey found one of the leaders of the coordinating committees that agitated all over america. >> the students of columbia university or through the black community and were there for 56 hours. they will stay here until the university is willing to talk on behalf of it. we are going in the community to support it we will let columbia know that if they don't want to deal with them they will deal with the brothers on the street. >> it was parents weekend cornell. they stand straight hall in the heart of the campus. some move-in and got evicted when black students decided to occupy the hall. the blacks were demanding the usual things. their demands were met and they came out. it was everyone that realized the students were armed. they try to take the guns away. is not sure who one, but the students do not lose. to return to the revolutionary conference we hear the cofounder of the front against fascism. he was also independent in the conspiracy trial until given a gel sentenced. we are going

if they have friends within the university beyond the university. good health and good services available and they are reaching out to students. i would tell any student that if they are feeling anything other than their own norm, go and seek help. there are services in the universities, especially. lets pick up universities, especially. lets pick up another thought if i could with professor steve west. norman lamb is saying that universities have a legal need to meet students at‘ mental health needs. would you agree thatitis mental health needs. would you agree that it is a legal need? we already have a legal requirement to ensure that we support our students through health and safety. there is a lot of work going on at the moment around student charter, a mental health charter. that is being designed in partnership between universities uk and student lines and that will set the framework, i think, to allow universities to identify a whole syste m universities to identify a whole system approach, a whole community approach, to supporting mental hea
