Cancel Culture's Worst Nightmare

Dear Reader,

Truth. It’s a big word. Bigger than money, bigger than power. Yet somehow, it’s been banished from the one place it should thrive—our universities.

Enter the University of Austin, or UATX, a new Texas institution refusing to play by the old, broken rules of academia. They’ve replaced diversity, equity, and inclusion—DEI—with something much rarer: merit, excellence, and intelligence. Imagine that. A college where free speech actually means something.

• Revolutionizing Higher Education: UATX ditches cancel culture for open dialogue, challenging the modern campus echo chamber with its "pursuit of truth" mission.

• A Merit-Driven Approach: With a focus on Western classics, small seminars, and real-world skills, UATX is cutting through bloated academia to foster genuine intellectual growth.

• A Haven for All Perspectives: From Bernie bros to MAGA supporters, UATX students engage in fearless debates without fear of censorship, proving intellectual diversity still exists.

This isn’t just a school; it’s a rebellion.

Let’s talk about why it matters. The co-founder, historian Niall Ferguson, hit the nail on the head. “University forms the way you think about the world for the rest of your life,” he said. If our universities are messed up—and they are—then America doesn’t stand a chance. That’s not hyperbole. That’s reality.

Think about the protests, the canceling, the mob mentality on campuses today. They’ve turned the marketplace of ideas into a battleground of censorship. Professors fired for saying the wrong thing. Students silenced for having the “wrong” opinions. It’s like Stalinist Russia—but happening in the United States.

UATX is pushing back. Hard.

Their curriculum is all about tough questions, open debates, and real conversations. They’re reading the Bible, Greek classics, and tackling ideas that built Western civilization. And the Chatham House Rule? Genius. It means you can speak your mind without worrying that your words will end up on social media, twisted and taken out of context.

This isn’t just about education. It’s about survival.

When universities fail, society follows. The woke nonsense that starts on campus spreads like wildfire—corporations, media, even government. UATX is cutting off that toxic pipeline. They’re teaching students to think critically, not conform mindlessly.

Here’s the kicker. UATX isn’t some conservative bubble. It’s politically diverse. You’ve got far-left Bernie supporters sitting next to die-hard Trump fans. And guess what? They actually talk to each other. Disagreeing without destroying. That’s the kind of America we need.

It’s a lean operation. No fancy dorms. No overpriced meal plans. Just 92 students in the first class, all handpicked for their brains and courage. They could’ve gone to Georgetown or the University of Chicago. But they chose UATX.

Why?

Because they want their ideas challenged. They want to grow. And they want a shot at building something real—whether it’s a startup or a sharper worldview.

This is the future of education. And it’s about time.
