## Resource

National Science Foundation suspends UC Berkeley grants, including Indigenous science exhibits, in a move critics call a violation of court orders. The Trump administration has axed nearly two thousand grants nationwide, focusing on diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. UC Berkeley remains silent on details but is working with federal agencies. Meanwhile, UC pushes for a twenty-three billion dollar state fund and explores global partnerships for research.
