Beverly Hills | Ken Griffin has called on Harvard University to embrace “Western values”, with the billionaire hedge fund manager and donor saying the turmoil sweeping across college campuses was the product of a “cultural revolution” in US education.

Mr Griffin, who founded the $US63 billion ($95 billion) US hedge fund Citadel and has given more than $US500 million to his alma mater, told the Financial Times that the US had “lost sight of education as the means of pursuing truth and acquiring knowledge” over the past decade.
