Weathering a Soros storm
Article Abstract:
Students of the American University in Bulgaria (AUBG) claim the institution's administration is communist, but their call for resignations has gone unnoticed as administrative appointments have increasingly been made in support of the university president. The AUBG is funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and investor George Soros, with its students comprising the best-performing high-school graduates. Professors at the university are known to be poorly treated, but USAID refuses to intervene.
