#Trump Admin [finally] Drops [illegal] Subpoena Demanding #List of #Jews From #Penn
For more than a year, the Trump admin pressed the #university for records about #antisemitism complaints & a list of campus groups involved with #Judaism.

Ugh. The timing of the #Penn data release decision during Passover just hit me.
-
The [formerly] “Equal” Employment Opportunity Commission [#EEOC] has been pursuing an inquiry into potential workplace #discrimination against #Jewish faculty & staff at #Penn, a #school in Philadelphia, since 2023. While #university officials said they welcomed the investigation, they balked last year after the government issued a subpoena seeking names & phone numbers for members of #Jewish groups on campus.
-
Judge Gerald J. Pappert of the US District Court in Philadelphia issued the decision, which largely sided with the #government, writing that #Penn’s “constitutional claims are easily dispensed with.”
He gave #Penn until May 1 to comply with the subpoena, though he said that the #university would not have to reveal any employee’s connection to a specific #Jewish-related organization.

Crazy. It’s not like there’s scary precedent for this or anything‼️
Federal Judge Approves #Trump Effort to Extract #List of #Jews From #Penn
The decision to allow the #government to collect the names & phone numbers of #Jewish people on campus could allow the government to pursue similar tactics elsewhere.

🤖⚡ Researchers at #Penn and University of #Michigan created fully #autonomous microbots smaller than salt grains that cost just one penny each to manufacture.
The #solar-powered #robots use electrical fields for propulsion and communicate their temperature measurements through "wiggle dances" similar to honey bee communication.

Here's a non-paywalled copy (via the Washington Examiner) of the White House's "Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education", which they have sent to #Penn and some other institutions, proposing they acquiesce to it lest they "forego federal benefits": https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Compact-for-Academic-Excellence-in-Higher-Education-10.1.pdf. #AcademicFreedom #HigherEd

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/us/politics/trump-college-funding.html"The White House on Wednesday sent letters to nine of the nation’s top public and private universities, urging campus leaders to pledge support for President Trump’s political agenda to help ensure access to federal research funds."

"As much as Wax would like otherwise, this case is not a First Amendment case. It is a discrimination case brought under federal antidiscrimination laws. It calls for us to determine whether offensive comments directed at racial minorities are protected by those laws. ...[But] the anti-discrimination statutes protect speakers, not speech."

Just now, I read this statement from Sophie De Schaepdrijver, professor European History at Pennsylvania State University.
"And to think that in the US people thought "woke" was the big problem. Because woke was canceling! Woke was threatening freedom of speech! Oh dear, the downfall of the West!
But woke doesn't have armed police. Woke never arrested anyone. Woke never made anyone disappear into an ICE detention center."

About halfway through my April 13 photos and calling it a night; Penn Nº 5 Ryan Taylor bounces the ball so Nº 16 Gavin Collins can bring it home past catcher Nº 19 Mark Quatrani -- can't stress too much how much fun it is to catch a game at Booth Field!

"If this becomes a pattern — the Trump administration threatens to withhold funding to institutions that don’t match its position on culture war issues — this would speak volumes about the state of America’s colleges and universities. They say they’re graduating irreverent rebels who are ready to change society. Yet they’re willing to bend to the will of the president?
One way for universities to stand on principle would be to tap into their endowments. Elite colleges are sitting on massive pots of money.
In Penn’s case, that endowment is about $22 billion.
In Columbia’s case, that endowment is nearly $15 billion.
These funds could easily be used to buttress any federal funding that the administration is using as leverage over these schools. They don’t have to simply comply. They have more than enough money to weather the storm for four years.
Does that mean that there are no legitimate debates about transgender athletes or protests over the Middle East conflict? Absolutely not. I think both of these highly contentious issues have plenty of nuance to them.
But if these colleges and universities decide to let the threat of federal funding decide these debates for them, it would prove that they’re far from the bold, reformist institutions they portray themselves as. They’re just a bunch of conformists, worried about their prestige and paychecks, after all."
