Congresswoman Elise Stefanik reveals how America’s elite universities, once proud symbols of academic excellence, have become centers of far-left indoctrination, division, and moral rot in this riveting, behind-the-scenes inside account. Drawing on her experience as the highest-ranking woman in Congress and the chief questioner of Ivy League university presidents in the hearing heard around the world, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik exposes the failures of American higher education and the reckoning facing universities.

For decades, conservatives have warned about the decline of higher education. Now, for the first time in modern history, Americans are taking action.

Congresswoman Elise Stefanik, a Harvard alumna herself, lit the fuse when she posed basic questions to the presidents of Harvard, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania, such as: Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate your university’s rules on bullying and harassment? Their inability to answer with moral clarity sparked a national reckoning causing multiple Ivy League presidents to resign. It was the most-watched Congressional hearing of all time. But that was just the beginning.

Poisoned Ivies delivers an unflinching account of what has gone wrong on America’s college campuses. Stefanik exposes how the nation’s most prestigious institutions abandoned their founding ideals of freedom of thought, open debate, and academic excellence, and instead embraced a culture of censorship, radical leftist groupthink, antisemitism, and moral cowardice that has spread far beyond campus walls to every corner of American life.

Both a damning exposé and a blueprint for reform, Poisoned Ivies is a timely story of courage and conviction and the power of one voice to challenge the status quo in American higher education and delivers a long-overdue reckoning. A must-read for anyone concerned with the fight for our nation’s soul.

Elise's well-researched, well argued book deftly identifies what she calls the "moral rot" inside American higher education. These universities, including my alma mater and hers, have embraced racist ideologies for years, becoming anti-American in the process. She justifies not only her work in uncovering this rot but the ongoing need for taxpayer funds to be removed from these universities so long as the racist professors, administrators and students continue to be welcome there. I won't donate to these universities so long as they refuse to change and continue to tenure these professors, and neither should you.

Incredibly detailed overview of academic racism

I thought the book was well written and to the point of antisemitism which hasn’t a place in higher learning. The professors, Dean of the Universities should be fired immediately and start over again with new educators who will not judge the ethnicity of their students and remove all the tents and protests and not allow this kind of behavior on their campuses or off campus protesters blocking the streets of the cities. Campus police should get involved to remove persons of hatred from their campus and school if this continues to occur. There should be a conduct code for existing students for them to sign before taking a single class and if they violate the code they will be expelled by the university. The conduct code MUST Be ENFORCED! The professors who lecture hate speech should be removed and their tenure ended regardless of how many years they’ve been on the payroll. They are there to educate not talk on a soapbox their beliefs. Ivy League Schools in general are for the smartest kids and their test scores and essays should show that they belong there and not by any other means.

The complete devastation of Ivy League education.
