The academic world is not without its corporate conquest madness. Unless the New York Board of Regents steps in this month to put the brakes on the so-called fusion of New York University and Polytechnic University, something utterly wicked will happen.
To call the transaction a joining was and ashes a boldfaced lie. With its 50,000 students compared to about 3,000 for Poly, and yearly revenues twenty period larger, the giant NYU wishes to acquire Poly. In particular, with its considerable extension campaign, it wants the superior downtown Brooklyn authentic estate owned by Poly. Like so many other Poly alumnus I have been appalled by the shenanigans of the administrators of both institutions. After 154 being of independence and considerable contributions to city, majestic and people, Poly is about to be gobbled up by the Goliath NYU.
