Even if the Trump administration pledged tomorrow to stop strangling the goose that lays the golden eggs (the American higher education system, which has been the envy of the world since the mid-20th century), the reverberations of the damage they have already done will be felt for decades.

Second and more important, read Paragraph 8.
The gov't agrees, for now (until it sours on UVA and cancels the agreement), to "treat UVA as eligible for grants, funding, contracts, and awards on the same basis as other universities, and no less favorable than hose available to any other university"

So, all that is terrible. Where's my glimmer of hope?
In two places.
First, what's not here. Compared to Columbia or Brown, UVA is paying nothing. $0. That's small progress, but I think it's progress: the government's demands in its campaign against universities seem to be shrinking, not growing.
