If your alma mater is not on this list….,
It might already be resisting pressure from the federal government. Check to see if the current president or chancellor is on this list of leaders who signed a letter criticizing the compact.
Or its leader(s) might not have decided whether or not to agree to the compact. Start a group for your alma mater with the help of Stand for Campus Freedom (a project of non-profit Democracy House). Use this link to contact them and get the ball rolling.
