Yale dropped 'improving the world' from its motto, endorsed the creation of a "civic education initiative" (a wink & nod to the right-wing), and promoted 'viewpoint diversity' all but in name so it's disappointing, but not entirely surprising that its administration would make a deal with Trump.

To be clear, I'm aware he is and has been right wing. The point is that once upon a time, he felt the ADL needed the pretext of appearing to represent liberal Jewry. That pretext is now completely gone.
