the university in the center of bangkok is the oldest national university in thailand. in keeping with tradition, students are required to wear uniforms. a third-year student in the faculty of education, she was born a boy but has identified herself as female since childhood. she went to a boy's school but it never felt right. after entering university, she decided to live her life as a woman. >> but there was a problem. the university was reluctant to allow jirapat to go to school in a woman's uniform. the university asked jirapat to submit a doctor medical certificate showing she had gender identity disorder. after meeting that request, she was given permission to wear a woman's uniform. but her troubles continued. as her teachers became aware she was transgender, she was subject to various forms of discrimination. this is a recording of what an associate professor said to jirapat during a lecture. >> jirapat reached out to other transgender students on campus. she also contacted journalists. this is one of the media reports published online. the voice recording of an

sold to finance university.lavery was an integral part of life in the town of chapel hill and at the university of north carolina. and students and faculty were overwhelmingly, you know, on the side of the confederacy. campus life tkwepbd elled. a lot of students left to enlist. the university stayed open but barely. only at the end of the war did troops make it into the village of chapel hill. and the university administrators and other state leaders managed to negotiate to prevent the university from being destroyed. but there were, you know, soldiers from many united states regiments housed on campus and in nearby towns. so things really began to change for the university and the town. in the 1880s and 1890s. a branch of railroad finally came to town. it was just west of chapel hill in carbreaux. a couple textile mills. and finally industry for the town and nearby communities began to develop outside the university. in 1890s, the university really began a drive toward becoming a modern research university. so

secretary burwell: at the universities, some funds have been moved to universities, but for most universities, we are highly tuition-dependent, so enrollment is a very important part of that. a number estimates by of organizations that observe and interview students that an roman changes could be up to 20%. that becomes a challenge. with regard to federal funding for students, half of the money that congress passed is money that is to go to student, so that is an important thing. the impact on students in terms of the government continuing to do programs, but in terms of the university's ability to do financial aid on top of other things, is impacted by the tuition. comes in. and as we think about decisions students are to make, there are decisions they may make to health and safety, related to proximity, so we are going to have to watch what is happening in that space. higher education is a place were not as much attention has been paid. everyonerting to as focuses on what we will do in the fall, but many institutions are going to be challenged as we try to support our students' affordable h

in 1890s, the university really began a drive towards a modern university. and expanding the graduate school and really a conservative effort to be involved in the positive way for the life of north carolina. the university began to grow in prestige and national reputation, i would say in the 19 twenties and thirties. this was when it was embarking on an ambitious building and growth campaign. and some extent, it inspired by state universities in the midwest and other parts of the country but the university really began to engage with not just a state of north carolina but also the region. those kind of academic programs attractive students from all over the country and they also brought a lot of attention to the university faculty and began to develop this reputation as a regional leader certainly but also a national leader in public education. the university today is dramatically different from how it was when it was founded. some of the buildings are still here but it's hard to imagine this kind of rustic, isolated place from 200 years ago in to the bustl

for worth emery university and -- for emery university and for the communist party of china. conducting similar research projects at both institutions. despite the clear conflict of interest, he failed to report any of his at least $500,000 in foreign income on his federal tax returns. that very same day a professor at university of arkansas was arrested on charges of wire fraud for allegedly failing to disclose his ties to the chinese government despite being required to do so as a grant recipient from nasa. nasa. and just this past week we found out that this problem had rooched my home -- reached my home state of ohio when the department of justice announced the arrest of a professor affiliated with the cleveland clinic. he received $3.6 million from the national institutes of health. again, taxpayer dollars. to secure that grant, he is accused of lying to hide the fact that he was given a deanship at university of wuhan china and lied about his chinese research overlapping his n.i.h. research. according to the criminal complaint, he received $3 million in funding to china

in the 1890s the university began a drive towards becoming a modern research university. this meant expanding involvement, development graduate, school and making more concerted efforts to become involved in a positive way for the entire state of north carolina. the university started to grow in petite and national reputation. in the 19 twenties and thirties, this is when it was embarking in a very ambitious building, and growth campaign. in some ways inspired by universities in the midwest and other parts of the country, university started to engage not with north carolina as a state but the region. those academic programs attracted people from around the country. it also interested faculty, and began to develop a reputation as a regional and national leader in public higher education. university today is very different from how it was when it was founded. some of the buildings are still here, but it's hard to imagine the rustic as little place from touch and years ago. so what you see now is a global modern public university, very deeply committed to north carolina but

, this is from west virginia university. these are as bad as they are. this month we've actually had three more cases announced by the department of justice and fbi in relation to this thousand talents program. i commend the doj and fbi for their work to continue to crack down on this program and to go after these problems, but they need better tools to do it. about two weeks ago, a former emory university professor pled guilty to falsifying his tax returns to conceal his work for the chinese government. the professor worked simultaneously and secretly for six years for emory university and overseas for chinese universities affiliated with the communist party of china, conducting similar research projects at both institutions. despite this clear conflict of interest he failed to report any of his at least $500,000 in foreign income on his federal tax returns. that very same day, a professor at university of arkansas was arrested on charges of wire fraud for allegedly failing to disclose his ties to the chinese government des

what's going to happen to higher education in the middle of a pandemic universities are scrambling to get their lectures online as coronavirus lockdowns lock out students but what will that do to the quality of education this is inside story. hello welcome to the program. but coronavirus pandemic is disrupting higher education worldwide lockdowns of closed university and college campuses classes have moved online one of the world's most prestigious universities cambridge in england is making all actors on while until next year but can virtual classes provide the same learning experience and should students continue to pay higher tuition fees so they can set their exams. reports. can read university has experienced plagues wars and social upheavals over the past 800 years the coronavirus is the latest challenge social distancing rules mean students and teachers haven't been on campus since the start of the pandemic so university staff are making tough choices all mass lectures so really big lectures involving a lot of students will not happen face to face will be put online this could

with cambridge university announcing that all lectures will be when term begins at universities across questions asked steve smith, vice chancellor of the university of exeter and a member of the ministerial task force looking at university funding during the coronavirus crisis, and also courtney shepard who is customer experience manager at ucas. thank you forjoining us. we'll begin with a question from rachel and she asks, sir steve, if classes are going to be virtual, is the government going to subsidise this? getting university to reduce fees. this is all about value for money during the pandemic. the answer is no, the government is not going to do that. the minister has said that as long as we can guarantee the standard of the quality of the education experience is roughly the same, not identical but roughly the same, as in traditional delivery, then fees shouldn't be reduced and what you'll find, rachel, is that every university in the country is currently working out how to deliver high quality lectures. they are the real problem online because you cannot put so many people in a

if you are anywhere near the university, stop and do it. in a more immediate sense, you had richard nixon's speech on the thursday, he announced the extension of the war into cambodia. after saying he was going to bring home 50,000 troops. that was a time bomb waiting to erupt and it did the next evening on the streets of kent. that demonstration -- there were windows broken and trash cans set on fire. the real problem with that demonstration was is it convinced the mayor of kent that outside agitators had taken over the campus. the whole thrust of the dog whistling from the white house under richard nixon and the governor's under jim rose, it was outside agitators, outside agitators. there was a 1:30 call made to the governor's office by the mayor saying there were outside agitators and asking for help and that is how the guard ended up there. the guard changed the equation, and then you can guess what the demonstrations were about. about jim rose. did the governor issue any shoot to kill by the national guard, was that a directive from th

she had become the most recognizable non-university student protester. most iconic photograph you remember is the day after. she's right here. 14 years old, runaway from florida. there are two shaded individuals in the middle right of the photo. these students carry their books as they pause on the way to class. on the right is william schroeder. he was a native of cincinnati, ohio, where he was born in 1950. to his left is sandy scheuer. a speech therapist honor student, intent on going to class. she was born in 1949 in youngstown, ohio. i watched as a line of guards students reached the crest of the hill and the guard continued to advance on them. on the right, just under the pagoda is allison krause. that's the person i took a photograph. allison krause was a freshman honor student. she was born in cleveland in 1951. this photo is particularly difficult for me to look at. i see her holding hands with her boyfriend. i go back to 1969 to remember the original federal i took of her and the banner that read, bring all the troops home. at this point, the g

in 1876, the university got its first six students. and the city of bryan was really getting going and the area you see around us today are still some of the first buildings that were being built at that time. 25 years ago this area was a ghost town. because of the growth of the state and the growth of texas a&m, it's created growth and renewal within the city of bryan. we're only seven football fields away from the main campus of the university. the line between our two cities is blurred not just in how we work together but it's geographically blurred, too. >> texas a&m, founded in 1876 as part of the moral act. one of the land grant institutions. and over time it grew. but it was five miles from the nearest town. bryan. and nobody knew about a town called college station except for the fact in 1938 when some a & m professors and faculty and staff got together and said, you no he what? let's create our own city. and so they were able to charter a city and we're growing. but we're growing somewhere between three to five and more percen

and part of the act required that universities provide not only for the arts and answers, but most universitiesthe time were teaching, but to focus on the agricultural and mechanical engineering portions of education, and in addition to that, it required the universities to provide training and tactics, military tactics. so that's why a&m became what it was back in 1876, a land grant college that provided a corps of cadets here in order to provide agricultural mechanical education, along the military tactics. finally in 1964, a&m became a co-ed university. women were allowed to come here to texas a&m and in 1965 the corps cadet became an option. you were no longer required to become a member of the corps. in 1974 the first women joined the corps of cadets and we've flourished ever since. today's population, about 22% of our corps are female. we have 20% come from out of state. we have a long tradition of attracting young men and women to come here who want to serve their country, either in the public or private sector. >> when i was thinking about where i wanted to go to college, i was original

what are you doing in terms of survey classes at major universities like the university of illinois,you have 400, 400, 500ere you have students in one classroom. what is and they guidelines that might inform administrators at major universities with very large classes? thet: thank you for question. it really comes back to some of the things we have been hitting on here. the guidelines call for when we have large mass gatherings, we maintain six feet of distance, we wear masks. what we may end up having to do is run those courses multiple times or some may have to be remote and online. some classes just cannot be taught online, they are labs. we will have to figure out how to socially distance those and that will be almost like reservations in the laboratory and trying to maintain social distancing. each institution will have to use these guidelines and figure out how to effect that in the classroom and make sure they are creating conditions where we are not to creating a petri dish for the covid virus to spread. host: we talked a lot about keeping students safe. what about faculty an

universities will be able to offer slightly more places this year, up to 5% per university in england, if you're willing to shop around in clearing, there could be plenty of choice. in wales and northern ireland, unis may also rely more on fees. in scotland, where there are no fees, student numbers are limited. no details yet on home student numbers in these parts of the uk. there's been a boom in students from china, but even those who have had a great time here aren't sure many will follow this autumn. i think definitely it will reduce the number of potential students coming to the uk next year. because fees for international students are high, they bring £7 billion each year to the uk. if numbers drop, so do university finances. even if we see a small fall, and i think all of us are anticipating a large fall, if we lose half of that £7 billion, then that will put many universities into very, very difficult financial straits. so, to help financial pressure now, some research money will be released early. access for all uk universities to government support schemes. 0n bigger decisio

talking about what happens to universities next year after that news from cambridge university. topped out a 2k degrees in highlands. the warmer state so far in scotland. in england, just above 28 celsius. for wales, at around 26 degrees. they didn‘t quite get there in northern ireland. we are all turning cooler, not cold, but cooler at the end of the week fourth chance of rain as well and with this area of low pressure. 0nce he comes in, thursday night into friday, lasting into the start of the weekend and it will be much 20—year. especially the closer you are to that in scotland. let‘s take are to that in scotland. let‘s take a look at things through the night and into the morning. we are bringing your weather system in from the atlantic. not a particularly dramatic one but it will give some rain to northern ireland and to weston scotland and parts of wales. late in the night and early into the morning temperatures not going down too far. this continues to push east tomorrow morning come if you really wa nt tomorrow morning come if you really want some rain the further south y

were to come on campus without express permission from the university. howard: right. and i think that is what happened at kent. they just -- the mayor gave in very easily to some violence that took place, called governor rhodes. rhodes sent the troops in, and the troops came in on friday. the building was burnt on saturday. i was watching the troops roll in, you know, under the darkness of the night at 2:00 in the morning. students are still away or in their dorms. no one could see them. then you wake up, and here you have the national guard. if the national guard had not been there, i am not sure there would've been a problem at all. students went to rallies, back in those days for one thing, right? to get information, really. a rally was not to storm or take over a building. that was decided at the rally. but the rallies were to get information to determine what you believed in or did not believe in. we did not have instant information. in the book, i try to remind the reader that we did not have cell phones. we did not have a tv in every room. and le

but i got the right university!nt?|j think the thing is no one is sure where they stand at all. in terms of achieving my predicted grades, it is achieving my predicted grades, it is a case of you just have to wait and see. i don't think anyone is certain they will get into their first choice any more. and how stressful is that at the moment? i know you would have preferred to do the exams, get into university on merit, on your actual grades? at first it didn't feel too bad because everyone was very stressed about the exams. then they said you don't have to do them and everyone felt a bit more relaxed. then it dawned on everyone that actually we would be relying on teacher opinions to get grades that we have worked two years for. i think that is really daunting, to know that it will not be my, like, me being tested. and how many universities have you actually been able to visit before the lockdown started ? able to visit before the lockdown started? i was able to visit three out of my five choices, but all the four d

most recently the university of texas, ucla, and the university of kansas. and again, you, the u.s. taxpayers, are funding this. for more than a decade i've been warning about the damage this is been doing to america, and senator tom cotton, he is rightly outraged. >> it's understandable to me that we have trained so many of the chinese communist party's brightest minds to go back to china to compete for our jobs, to take our business, and ultimately to steal our property. >> laura: now what is most insane about this is how the media have lapped up china propaganda. now, politico has praised china's handling of the pandemic that it caused. "the new york times" is worried. it's worried about how covid-19 could hurt china. and cnn, well, it should just be rebranded prc and then. prc and then its shameless promotion of chinese propaganda. even when they kick out a prominent journalist our newspapers, even when they imprison a million ethnic muslims, even when as we saw this past month, china rips crosses off churches and other buildings, to the sick and twisted system. it is the soviet

this university is where the tragedy happened and the university has a duty to the four students whoke sure this doesn't happen again. >> hi. this is joe lewis, speaking to you from my home in oregon. i'm very sorry we're going to not be able to get together for the 50th commemoration ceremony or celebration. for me, it was always a bittersweet reunion. i'm very glad to be able to get together and honor the memory of allison and sandy, jeff and bill. and i'm also happy when i can get together with my blood brothers, a group of very kind and wise men who share a unique experience in life. i'm glad for the participation over the years of the may 4th task force, their various leaders and the students at kent state university who join us each year for the commemoration. i'm happy to say i've only missed a couple in the last 30 years, and would have been there this spring as well. it's important to underscore the importance of peaceful protest and to protect it as a value in our society of the free speech and free assembly rights that we exercised at kent state on may 4th, 1970, but also

is with a student at the university of maryland in college park. i wanted to read a paragraph that i wrote about the kent state killings. i wrote this some several years ago. a little background. in 1969, '70, '71, there were huge demonstrations against the vietnam war in washington, d.c. one of the demonstrations, "the washington post" estimated there were more than 1 million people there. these demonstrations were just getting larger and larger. at the university of maryland and at many other colleges, there were demonstrations across the country. at the university of maryland, the national guard was called in. and i was covering some of those demonstrations for the student newspaper, as was the entire staff of the newspaper at that time. so, that's just some background. here is what i wrote about kent state. on may 4th, 1970, four students were shot dead by ohio national guardsmen at ohio's kent state university. i remember that day vividly. prior to that day, it was a heady time for young people and students. it seemed like older people and som

and i would hope that the university community will be supportive. many are, but some apparently are saying they're going to try to block this legislation. don't do that. that would be wrong. the failure to stop the coronavirus early on has highlighted how china does not play by the rules, whether it's the world health organization rules, whether it's the trade rules we talked about earlier and now with regard to this issue that we're dealing with in terms of taking u.s. research back to china to fuel china's military, china's economy. when this pandemic passes, and our universities and research institutions reopen their doors, i have no doubt that we will once again continue to attract the best and the brightest. why? because our research enterprise is the best. we're innovators and we provide funding for it and we have such great opportunities here to do research and people like to come here, but we cannot stop idly by as our top global competitor steals that research. safeguarding american innovation act is to protect it for the safety and securit

townrine is from a small two hours from west virginia state university. we had the privilege before the rest of the world fell in love with katherine johnson, we had the privilege to have her youthful face on our campus at the tender age of 10 because she was unable to go to high school in her hometown because of the hue of her skin. her family had to pack up and come two hours to west virginia state university. we had an elementary and high school that was part of the college at the time. a young katherine johnson came here and she graduated at the age of 15. then she entered what was then west virginia state college, now west virginia state university. of left in 1937 at the age 18 and never looked back. when she graduated from west virginia state university, she went into the field of teaching. she was inspired here and understood the significance of paying it forward. she went into teaching for 13 years. -- kacatherine and therine entered nasa while we were living in dual worlds. there was a white america and a black america. she was willing to delica

a purdue university graduate is one of 25 astronauts educated there. next, look at major aviation and space milestones in our country's history, and the university's connection to them. >> t minus 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4 -- we have the main engine start. >> go! fly like an eagle. go. >> we are at the flight simulator building at purdue university. this is where a lot of things started in aviation. the purdue program was the first in the country to offer bachelor's degrees to pilots in the mid-1960's. today, it continues to be one of the best, most finest flight programs in the country. we have so many people who have been so important. i can tell you that, going back to the beginning, some of the country's most important figures -- billy mitchell, who was world war i commander of air forces -- the fodder -- father of the modern air force were trained to fly by purdue graduates. the first guy who got involved in flight from purdue was a guy named cliff. he graduated in 1908. his father sent him here from dayton, ohio. paid out-of-state tuition for his son

like the university of oregon, the university of indiana, the university of wisconsin have dropped theirdardized test requirements for students applying for fall 2021 admissions. >> all right. here's a third criticism of our position. kathryn, but on the screen, the college board and what they've had to say about this. the college board released a statement saying regardless of what happens with such policies, our mission remains the same to give all students especially low income and first generation students opportunities to show their strength. here's the key part. we must also address the disparities in course work and classrooms that the evidence shows most drive inequity in california. in other words saying it's not the fault of the test. there are inequities in terms of the curriculum being offered to different students and now you're simply seeing the end result of it? >> no question that there are many inequities in the public education system in the u.s., as in the entire society. but standardized tests doesn't address those inequities. it makes them worse. standardized tests,
