There was much ado when UNH was finally forced to shut down its Confucius Institute. A partnership with the government of China that the Feds had long warned was likely a cover for intelligence gathering and the theft of intellectual property by the CCP.
The #wokesters in the Commie Campus systems of America have no objection to such things, and institutes are not the only way to buy a #woke anti-American universities heart. Large cash gifts will purchase plenty of loyalty, and they are not exactly illegal. Anyone can donate to a college or University.
China donates a lot!
The last large dollar exchange between China and UNH appears to have been for a contract worth $738,000, starting June 2020. In July 2021, UNH officially ended its Confucius Institute relationship, but the contract above keeps funds from Communist China rolling into UNH until June 2024.
They are still doing business with China, just not as openly.
Dartmouth College is also well endowed with Communist Cash. It has accepted nearly 2.8 million in cash gifts from China or Hong Kong (still China) since 2020. No legacy data or details are attached to the gifts, so these are not likely from appreciative Asian Alumni. And (oddly) there were no donations to Dartmouth from China in this Database before COVID.
Is that suspicious?
Dartmouth Medical and Dartmouth Hitchcock have both been eager, if not zealous, supporters of the World Health Organization’s (WHO) global COVID response, including masks, lockdowns, distancing, the ventilate and Remdesvir till death protocol, the alleged efficacy and need for mRNA vaccines and boosters (safe and effective), jabbing hospital staff or bust policies, as well as nearly every other fool idea peddled as necessary to “prevent the spread.”
China has a good deal of influence over the WHO and BioNTech.
Is any or all of that million COVID blood money, or are they also encouraging the sterilization of future generations via Dartmouth’s ardent passion for hormone blockers and childhood mutilation surgery?
Both?
I know someone will ask, so I checked. Many other IVY league schools (scores of US colleges and universities) are swimming in cash CCP gifts.
- Cornell received 440.000 from China in 2021.
- Columbia has received nearly 63 million since 2020.
- The University of Pennsylvania, close to 20 million in the same period.
I’d expect much the same at the rest of them; awash in Chinese influence. And before you scoff, you need to understand something. China doesn’t let anyone come to America without expecting them to gather intelligence. Everyone’s family back home is assumed to be a hostage if anyone dares to refuse. China also does not give gifts without some expectation of something in return. We can debate what that is without hard evidence, but the CCP is highly invested in influence peddling in America. The President and his son are but two high-profile examples.
And while the Dartmouth money looks like a pittance compared to Columbia, Dartmouth has about 6700 students. Columbia has nearly 20,000.
2.8 million buys a lot of influence at a small rural college, even an Ivy League one. So what, exactly, did they buy?
