In a US Congressional survey of US Universities in China, conducted at the behest of US Rep. Chris Smith, (New Jersey Republican) and released in August 2016, universities reported receiving financial support from Chinese government entities ranging from $1.5 million to over $15 million. Several described the support provided as including classroom space, campus facilities, and student scholarships. Not all of the 12 institutions surveyed had unfettered internet access, and some faculty members and students reported that they self-censored, steering clear of potentially contentious topics like Tibet and the 1989 crackdown in Tiananmen Square. An administrator at one of these universities, however, said that the university is required by the Chinese government to track and maintain records for several months of faculty, student, and staff Internet usage, including the Internet sites visited by faculty and staff.
