President Donald Trump's first day in office saw the cancellation of various Biden-era executive orders related to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). He criticized these initiatives as harmful, particularly targeting programs that supported Hispanic-serving institutions and tribal colleges. This action raises significant concerns among educators regarding the future of funding for colleges that serve underrepresented students. While some advocates for these institutions distance themselves from DEI, others fear the potential impact of Trump's policies on critical federal support structures.
On his first day in office, President Donald Trump rescinded Biden-era executive orders he deemed harmful, particularly targeting diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives.
