This analysis seems very US-specific. Everywhere there has been an increase in the long-standing correlation between low education and rightwing voting, with a corresponding decrease in the confounding correlation between low income and leftwing voting.
But only in the US has there been a real backlash against elite universities as such. Complaints about Oxbridge still mostly come from the left, focusing on the perpetuation of privilege. In Australia, the big issues are overpaid VCs and concerns about overseas students. I don't have a feel for the situation in the EU, but if resentment against universities is a big deal on the far-right, it doesn't make it into English-language reports.

Yes. It's US centric. There is resentment against universities in some European countries where far right is ascending (including the Netherlands)
