## Resource

The Trump administration is pivoting higher education policy from targeted school investigations to sweeping federal rule changes designed to embed its priorities—intellectual diversity and skepticism toward DEI—into the nation’s academic institutions. New regulations aim to mandate “intellectual diversity” in accreditation and restrict federal funding for DEI programs or gender-challenging initiatives. While legal setbacks have tempered direct enforcement, the administration’s regulatory strategy is reshaping campus culture, with intensified scrutiny of medical school admissions for alleged racial bias. Universities are already adapting, scaling back DEI efforts or tightening protest policies, sparking debate over academic freedom versus institutional accountability.
