At global level, many universities have been "politicized". Students, who belong to the ruling political affiliation, will have open doors for success, scholarships, and appointments upon graduation. Students, who are categorized as opponents, may be harassed , surrounded by huge obstacles, and denied any sort of progress.

I can understand why Walter Williams did not provide data sources and I salute him for just ringing the bell. The perpetrators of "political" or "racial" discrimination have "muscles" which may harm those who expose such scandalous attitudes.

There is a need for ethical powerful persons to follow up this disastrous policy of favoritism otherwise all will witness "more" downfall of education & a time will come when wise men & women will cry over "spilled milk".

• Indian constitution says "There should be no discrimination on the ground of cast creed and religion and discrimination must be curbed". But the reality is different even in 20th century. I published three different articles in indian reseach . PhD and corruption in research gate about the different grounds of discrimination caste, race and status symbols in India.

Nizar and Sudalai,

Thanks so much for sharing your observations. One of the aspects I really enjoy is hearing from my colleges across the world!
