Qatar is top foreign funder of US Higher Education, By 50%

Peloni:  The US Dept of Education posted a new interactive dashboard depicting the top ten foreign countries funding US colleges and universities.  Qatar lies at the top, making up for nearly 11% of all foreign funding to US colleges and universities, and nearly 50% more than the next highest donor.  Meanwhile the next 5 highest include Germany, England, China, Canada and Saudi Arabia, each of which spend about $4 billion, or about 6.5% of all foreign funding to higher education.

When looking at the specific institutions receiving the funding, we see that Harvard receives $4 billion per year, which is 6.4% of all foreign donations, and this is nearly a third more than the next highest recipient, Cornell University, which receives about $3 billion.

Also, these are simply the funding of higher education institutions in the US.  See comment by Eitan Fleischberger on the amounts spent on K-12 schools by foreign govts.  The US needs to reclaim its education process.  It is selling its future by indoctrinating its youth and children with false narratives and anti-American and antisemitic teachings.  No matter what else the US might try to do to Make America Great Again, failing to return its education towards American values, celebrating American Judeo Christian heritage will undermine all other initiatives aimed at this goal.

  1. THE PROFESSORS ARE THE PROBLEM:

    The Jewish community understandably is troubled that Princeton University is offering a course called “Gender, Reproduction and Genocide,” which, according to its official description will have a “central focus on the ongoing genocide in Gaza.”

    Unfortunately, the problem of bias in the classroom is not limited to Princeton.

    Earlier this month, Columbia University’s Task Force on Antisemitism released a report which exposed a similar problem on that campus.

    The task force found that one of the major causes of anti-Israel hatred at Columbia is the extreme partisanship of faculty members. “Columbia lacks full-time tenure line faculty expertise in Middle East history, politics, political economy, and policy that is not explicitly anti-Zionist,” the report concluded. (p.40)

    The narrative typically relayed by Columbia professors to their students is “harshly anti-Zionist,” the report noted. The faculty “treat Zionism and Israel as fundamentally illegitimate.” There is a “paucity” of courses that dissent from this extremist line. (p.31)

    Not only that, but anti-Zionist hatred permeates even courses that have nothing to do with Israel, Jews or Zionism. The report cited an introductory class on astronomy which begins with a unit on “Astronomy in Palestine” that focuses on “the unfolding genocide in Gaza.” (pp.29-30)

    Surveying incidents from the past year, the Columbia task force reported that “in a class on feminism, the professor opened the first session by announcing it had been 100 days since Israel began waging war on Gaza.” The report cited similar examples “in a class on photography, a class on architecture, a class on nonprofit management, a class on film, a music humanities class, and a Spanish class.” (p.30)

    If similar studies are undertaken at other American colleges and universities, they are likely to find the same problem. Falsehoods spread by faculty members are creating an entire generation of students steeped in hatred of Israel and Zionism.

  2. If you think foreign funding in American universities is bad, recall that there’s no real federal transparency regime for K-12 schools.

    At the very least, China has given $17M, Iran $13M, and Qatar ~$30M to American K-12 education in recent years.

  3. While all this information is highly interesting, what benefit do countries like Germany or England get from investing in US institutions? I can distinctly remember the complaints about brain drain which could be alleviated by investing at home. As far as Qatar is concerned, they benefit, in a way, by indoctrination of the students to appreciate the Islam way of life. Is it the same for European countries?
