Since 2004, the Chinese government has planted "Confucius Institutes" at colleges and universities around the world. More than 80 operate in the United States, including at CSU Fort Collins. These Institutes avoid Chinese political history and human rights abuses, portray Taiwan and Tibet as undisputed territories of China, and educate a generation of American students to know nothing more of China than the regime’s official history. Learn why Confucius Institutes harm American higher education--and what colleges and universities, state and federal officials, donors, and citizens can do to protect against pernicious influence by the Chinese government.
