University Presidents spy on faculty & students for FBI

University administrators used to be considered part of the collegiate community by themselves, the faculty and the students, but as the models of the business world took over the universities, the administrators became the ogres who wanted to cheat the faculty out of their pay, the faculty were forced to join unions to fight the administrators, and the students were left without any representation whatsoever until they temporarily learned about student power in the '60s (now long forgotten). So, is it any surprise now that University Administrators are teaming up with the FBI to spy on the students and the faculty?

The FBI's relationship with university students and academics has never been one of wine and roses -- see the agency's covert campaign to discredit Albert Einstein. Therefore, it might be a bit surprising to know that some university presidents are now embracing the agency and are perhaps even willing to become its eyes and ears on campus.

Perhaps so future president will say in his inaugural address, "Ask not what's in your FBI file, ask what more can be put into it."
