It's not just big ag with their hands in University systems, and, despite their large invovlement in the Uof M, from the little I've seen of the policy world, they are definitely one of the less frequently called out players.  Also not sure that it's the university caving to big business; the two are becoming more and more intertwined.

As fate would have it, I was reading this article around the time of hearing of the Bell movie retraction.
