In the two decades since Texas A&M University opened a campus in Doha, Qatar, there have been plenty of challenges. The school faced criticism for operating under the autocratic Qatari government, women are said to not be treated equally and censorship is common. But the partnership brought in millions of dollars and the campus flourished. So, Qataris were stunned when the Texas A&M board voted to close the school this month, in part because of “instability” in the region. Ari Daniel reports that a disinformation campaign appears to be behind the decision.
