US higher education serving global elites[edit]
There is a small section on legacies, but the relationship between social class and higher education seems to be a significant area that has not been well highlighted. Collegemeltdown2 (talk) 17:07, 12 September 2023 (UTC)
Anti-Semitism is just one form of hate on campus[edit]
I suggest that the section on Anti-Semitism be retitled "Hate on Campus." Crimes against African Americans and Muslims, crimes against the LGBTQ+ community are additional forms. Misogyny in higher education is legendary, and includes rampant crimes against women. Collegemeltdown2 (talk) 16:30, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
- I know that this suggestion is about four months old but here's my advice (as already noted in the article itself): I recommend that this section be slightly expanded instead of being renamed and changed. Antisemitism has been a powerful force in the history of US higher education, especially in how it shaped admissions at many institutions in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

Section on campus crime and the Clery Act[edit]
Campus crime in the US is a topic of great importance--especially for students, particularly women, who are not from the US who come from less violent societies. For example, in 2020 there were 9400 forcible sex offenses and 6,800 burglaries. I suggest a section on campus crime and the Clery Act.
