Trump Administration Proposes Rule to Remove Tax Exemption for Private Colleges with DEI Policies

The Trump administration has proposed a rule that would revoke the tax-exempt status of private colleges that provide assistance based on race, aiming to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion policies. The proposal could affect up to 18,000 institutions and is part of a broader campaign against perceived 'wokeness' in higher education. Critics argue that the rule undermines access to education for minority students and could create compliance challenges for colleges.
