Feds Accuse Berkeley Law of Racial Admissions Bias
x/donald-john-trump
— Sep 9, 2026
Federal investigators from the Justice Department and Education Department concluded that UC Berkeley Law systematically discriminated against white and Asian applicants, using race-based prompts and other tactics to advance diversity goals even after the 2023 Supreme Court ruling. The findings, aligned with the Trump administration’s push to roll back race-conscious admissions, cite a significant disparity in admission odds—berating Black applicants with much higher odds of admission compared with similarly qualified white applicants—and call for enforcement action and a voluntary resolution.

Treasury proposes ending tax-exempt status for schools with race-based admissions
x/scott-bessent-s
— Sep 3, 2026
The Trump administration unveiled proposed regulations to strip tax-exempt status from private schools, colleges, and other institutions that provide race-based admissions, scholarships, or benefits, potentially affecting up to 18,000 schools. Religious schools would be exempt, and the rules would take effect for tax years starting after May 31, 2027; supporters frame it as ending racial discrimination in education while critics warn DEI programs would be crushed and access to higher education could be limited.

This seems aimed at affirmative action policies more than actual discrimination cases. Curious how they'll define and enforce "race-based" in practice.
