Brown University will pay $50 million to Rhode Island workforce development organizations in a deal with the Trump administration that restores lost federal research funding and ends investigations into alleged discrimination, officials said Wednesday.
The university also agreed to several concessions in line with President Donald Trump’s political agenda. Brown will adopt the government’s definition of “male” and “female,” for example, and must remove any consideration of race from the admissions process.
Pathetic, though it doesn’t surprise me at all Brown University folded, it is full of (mostly) smart wealthy people (or just very very smart people trying to get a prestigious career) who just want to do good in school and not rock any boats.
Cowards.
Brown President Christina H. Paxson said the deal preserves Brown’s academic independence. The terms include a clause saying the government cannot dictate curriculum or the content of academic speech at Brown.
Lol this announcement itself clearly marks the end of Brown’s academic independence and credibility.
