To produce their goofy "research" about rent stabilization and other topics. It's a fucking scandal. Real estate programs in business schools are pretty much paid for by banks and landlord groups. And then the impressionable students mouth the garbage research being produced by these "professors." Like they say, every accusation from the right (and the capitalists) is projection. If you want to see real indoctrination in universities, look no further than your finance and other business departments - with real estate "research" just being the most clownishly obvious of the lot.
