https://www.uaustin.org/ - a new, almost explicitly anti-Woke University being formed.

Universities have been secretly, in an open secret way, discriminating against Republicans & pro-life Christians. That is arguably illegal - and Congress should make it more illegal.

We will inevitably have some "elite", top decision makers. The values such elite have are not neutral. We don't yet have honest transparency.

When Google fired Damore, they claimed to be supporting free speech. They were dishonest. Many colleges are firing professors, or pressuring them to resign, with similar dishonest statements.

The hostile response to University of Austin has reinforced my sense that something is deeply wrong within academia. As hard as it is to form a successful new university, dramatically changing the existing institutions in this space is probably harder.
