Worse yet, many donors will be upset. You can lose several million $$$ like that at a university that is considered fairly conservative.
Right! Texas A&M University has a
huge cadre of donors. Based on the ones I have known, I would guess that the majority of A&M's donors are thoughtful arch-conservatives, not just fairly conservative guys and gals.
Moreover, they donate to A&M because they are
proud Aggies. (They are gung-ho to a pretty extreme degree. I have never seen any other school that gung-ho.) Among other things, Aggies are justifiably proud of a well-documented tradition of the
courage of its graduates. They will be horribly ashamed of the University's decision to become stupidly PC, much less liberal.
