Personal opinion: Buckley is upset that Yale didn‘t live up to his expectations. Not enough Christianity, too many agnostics and atheists on faculty; too much emphasis on collectivism and the general welfare, too little praise in individualism; too much emphasis on academic freedom, not enough on making faculty teach the values he believes in.
