like state and local governments know all too well. When the federal government wants to force states to do something, they routinely legislate things like cutting highway funding to those states that won't comply with the federal dictates. Examples of federal dictates tied to highway funding include speed limits, blood-alcohol limits, and motorcycle helment laws.

Maybe universities should be made to forfeit any federal funding if they don't comply with programs like the ones mentioned in the article. Who knows, it might even have a side benefit. Perhaps some of the campus liberals who love the power of government so much will finally learn why so many people resent federal dictates.
