There is a reason for this. And that is the desire to turn the state deep red. It is being done through murders by cop, school incidences and an army of other things.
There are a handful of very good liberal Universities recently targeted via "funds" (Koch type) in order to further diminish the liberal arts in these schools. I believe Hamlin was one of them mentioned.
