Dear MIT alumni,

I write to you now because no one understands the value of MIT better than you do – and because, as I explain below, the Institute needs your help now, in a new way.

The MIT you remember
You remember professors who kept politics out of the classroom, and a culture that wasn’t overrun with social justice warriors, antisemitic terrorists, and mentally ill gender dysphorics. You remember a free and open campus climate that wasn’t smothered by therapeutic nannyism. You remember a Humanities department that knew its place as a service organization whose professors weren’t infection vectors for the Woke Mind Virus. You remember an admissions office that only accepted the very best, before it cast its lot with DEI and the pursuit of “composition” quotas.

Current and growing threats 
Unfortunately, significant changes in US federal policies threaten to defund the Progressive takeover of the world’s leading STEM university. This could force us to lay off hundreds of administrators responsible for transforming the MIT you knew and loved into a nerd version of Oberlin.

What you can do now 
If you’re concerned that this onslaught could return MIT to its glory days under leaders like Paul Gray, making it harder for innumerate grifters like Chancellor Mellissa Nobles to rise to power, then please write to your representative in Congress to let them know your views.

Regardless of where you stand on current political issues, we hope this plea for support will help save my job and those of other feckless appeasers who lack the cojones to stand up to the woke mob.

Sincerely,

Sally Kornbluth
