Higher education is key to America’s success. Our nation needs institutions that will lead the world in terms of scientific research while at the same time preparing our young generation for a life of productive employment and good citizenship. We at UniGuard are alarmed by the recent decline in the ethical standards of American universities and the shocking lack of safety on campuses. Many of our top universities have become beholden to anti-democratic, anti-American regimes after receiving billions of dollars from them. Freedom of speech and free academic inquiry are stifled. Faculty, students and administrations have embraced extreme and dangerous ideological positions. This ethical deterioration exploded in a sea of hate and bigotry after October 7 2023, when the green lawns across many of America’s campuses were flooded with hateful mobs, which glorified a horrifying terrorist attack and intimidated Jewish students on campus. 

UniGuard aims to help fix America’s educational institutions by providing objective, data-driven reports on universities, clearly indicating whether they abide by ethical standards and whether campuses are safe. We aim to inform prospective students, parents, alumni, donors, and the broader public about the state of higher education, empowering them to make informed decisions and advocate for positive change.
