Summary
What is a university president’s role when the government attacks higher education? Wesleyan University President Michael Roth joins Preet to discuss academia’s leftward tilt, what the attacks on universities portend for civil society, and whether remaining “neutral” is a viable option.
Plus, Preet answers questions about ICE agents wearing face masks during arrests and whether an Attorney General needs a law license.
