Listen "Higher Education Compact and Federal Funding Requirements"
Episode Synopsis
What is the Trump administration proposing to reshape U.S. universities? It has invited nine major schools, including MIT and Brown, to sign a “Compact for Academic Excellence,” offering federal funding in exchange for frozen tuition, limits on international students, standardized testing, and alignment with the administration’s gender definitions. So far, only the University of Texas system has expressed interest, while other schools have yet to respond. (AP News)
