New data show Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the UAE have funneled billions into American higher education over five decades, much of it undisclosed, raising concerns of foreign influence.
U.S. universities have received more than $14.6 billion in contributions from Arab governments and institutions since 1981, led by Qatar, according to a new report that raises concerns about transparency and foreign influence on American higher education.
The findings, released Thursday at the start of the new academic year, are based on official disclosures that colleges and universities are required to file with the Department of Education. The report was compiled by the Jewish Virtual Library, a project of the American-Israeli Cooperative Enterprise, which is broadly supportive of Israel.
