Pete Hegseth Bans US Troops From Ivy League Due to Woke Ideology
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced a ban on military personnel attending graduate programs at elite universities including Yale, Princeton, and MIT.Hegseth described these prestigious institutions as "factories of anti-American resentment" that promote "woke" ideology over military victory.The policy will take effect for the 2026-2027 academic year and follows a previous decision by the Pentagon to sever ties with Harvard University.The move aligns with broader criticism from
Donald Trump regarding perceived radical dogma and a lack of intellectual rigor at
Ivy League schools.
