Not really sure what to call this non-committal response from Vanderbilt, but it's not a yes. t.e2ma.net/message/tu4x...
Last Friday, Vanderbilt participated in a discussion with members of the administration and other university leaders about shaping a productive process for providing such comments. We expect to share our input with the administration through that process.   Our response will be grounded in our long-held principles and values, which were reaffirmed by our Board of Trust in October 2024. One such principle is our commitment to institutional neutrality. Institutional neutrality means that the university’s leadership will refrain from commenting on political matters unless they directly affect our core purpose of providing transformative education and conducting pathbreaking research. Since the compact could directly affect our teaching, research and other operations, our policy of institutional neutrality not only permits comment by the university’s leadership, it encourages it. Therefore, Vanderbilt will continue to share our point of view with the administration, just as we have previously shared our perspective at the local, state and federal level—most recently regarding the tax on university endowments and proposed restrictions on visas for international students.
