    Okay let’s look at the math:

    So far, USC is the only CA university that has been specifically offered the Trump Compact.

    According to the article USC receives $28.4 million in Cal Grants. As a private university, not part of the UC or CSU systems, it’s not otherwise subsidized by the state, afaik.

    But what amount of money does USC usually receive in federal grants? I didn’t see it in the article.

    In other words, would it be worth selling their already-tarnished soul?

    Meanwhile the Trump administration wants UCLA to pay $1.2 billion in “antisemitism” fines, for not squashing Palestine support protests enough, in order to unlock $0.5 billion in federal grants. Why the fuck would anyone do that? Even if it weren’t bullshit.
