[[Hillary Clinton|Hillary]] and [[Bill Clinton]] are graduates of its law school.

In a survey that was conducted by the ''Yale Daily News'' in 2018, queer freshmen were far greater than conservatives:<ref>https://www.thecollegefix.com/more-yale-freshmen-identify-as-lgbtq-than-conservative/</ref>
{{cquote|A Yale Daily News survey of freshmen students at that university found that more students of the class of 2022 identify on the [[LGBTQ]] spectrum than as [[conservative]], and that queer freshmen even outnumber other sizable demographics in the class, such as [[Protestant]]s and [[Catholic]]s.}}
Yale has engaged in cancel culture before, such as when they renamed Calhoun College (one of their residential colleges) to Grace Hopper College simply because Calhoun owned slaves. This is despite the fact that Calhoun was valedictorian at Yale and was named by John F. Kennedy as one of the five most important Senators in US history. Ironically, the university itself was named after the notorious [[slave]] trader Elihu Yale,<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/conservative-pundit-mocks-cancel-culture-with-tweets-urging-yale-to-change-name-for-slave-trade-link</ref> in spite of the fact that Jeremiah Dummer had more to do with the creation of the university. This has prompted some conservatives to suggest re-naming the entire university "Dummer University".<ref>https://intellectualtakeout.org/2020/06/cancel-yale-and-rename-it-dummer-university/</ref> Yale also produced a high percentage of pro-[[slavery]] clergy,<ref>https://www.nhregister.com/colleges/article/Yale-other-colleges-facing-backlash-of-buildings-11329471.php</ref> and did little to combat racism in [[Connecticut]], which was long the most racist state in [[New England]].
In 2022, Yale received the ignominious "Lifetime Censorship Award" from the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education (FIRE).<ref>https://www.thefire.org/10-worst-colleges-for-free-speech-2022/</ref>
[[Bill Clinton]], [[Hillary Clinton]], and [[Van Jones]] are all proud graduates of Yale, an institution that best exemplifies [[systemic racism]].

Yale College was founded in 1701 to train ministers; after the Civil War it became the first university in the United States to award a Ph. D. degree. The University was given its name to honor benefactor Elihu Yale, who donated a substantial amount of goods for sale and books during the early years of the institution, which was then named the Collegiate School. It is a member of the [[Ivy League]], and, with Harvard and [[Princeton University|Princeton]], part of the group known as the Big Three or HYP, which are associated both with academic excellence and with social prestige.
