American tolerance for left-wing politics applied to the established, not to émigrés

Evidence

Even during the 1930s, there had been tolerance for left-wing positions among those who were established in America, but hardly ever for émigrés. Left-wing émigrés still felt at their safest under the wing of Columbia University. Columbia was one of the universities at which professors who were left-wing liberals, friendly towards the New Deal and friendly towards Rooseveltor at least one of thesewere relatively well represented. The conservative Republican president of Columbia, Nicholas Murray Butler, was proud of the fact that members of his staff were involved in the Roosevelt administration. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 276
