    Looks like they’ve updated the hed to “Global academic freedom group warns Trump is dismantling US higher education,” which makes a hell of a lot more sense in the scope of the article.

      Remember in Tommyknockers, when the reanimated appliances are all in the woods attacking the people, and the woods are on fire from the fighting, and one of the appliances is a smoke detector and some remnant of its former duty and function is still intact and it starts doing its smoke-alarm beeping in the middle of the forest fire / appliance war? This is that beeping.
