The U.S. Muslim Brotherhood isn’t the only Islamist group funding American universities. The Iranian regime has done the same thing on a massive scale through its New York-based front, the Alavi Foundation. The Foundation’s website openly lists 30 “academic institutions” in the U.S. and Canada it has awarded grants to.

The Alavi Foundation is accused of funneling money to an Iranian bank linked to the nuclear program. The president of the Foundation, Farshid Jahedi, pled guilty to destroying evidence before it could be submitted to the grand jury. The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office investigations chief, Adam Kaufmann, said “We found evidence that the government of Iran really controlled everything about the foundation.”

The case has yet to be resolved.

The Foundation’s purpose is not only to launder money for the regime, but to become subtly engaged in the ideological war. U.S. officials told the Washington Post that the Foundation “promotes Tehran’s views on world affairs.” The communications director for the Iranian-American Community of Northern California, Hamid Azimi, says it is part of the regime’s “propaganda machine.”

This alleged component of Iran’s “propaganda machine” has invested heavily in academia. According to the Alavi Foundation website, 30 colleges and universities in North America have received its financing. The objective is to “offer courses on Persian language, Iranian studies and the Islamic culture with a focus on Shi’ite studies.”

The named 30 are listed below, organized by state alphabetically and additional notes. The Canadian institutions are listed at the end. All monetary figures were taken from the Alavi Foundation’s own financial reports.

As the investigation continues into the Alavi Foundation, U.S. and Candian officials need to also investigate the influence the Iranian regime has had on academia through its vast amounts of money.
