White House Offers Funds for Political Alignment

The White House has invited nine major universities to commit to President Trump's political agenda for federal funding benefits. The "Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education" proposes favorable access to grants and overhead payments in exchange for universities adopting White House priorities on admissions, free speech, and gender identity. Critics argue the deal threatens academic freedom and is a "Faustian bargain."
