Trump administration opens investigation on UC Berkeley over foreign funding
"The Trump administration's investigation into UC Berkeley focuses on foreign funding disclosures, emphasizing issues of transparency and federal legal compliance."
"Education Secretary Linda McMahon announced the investigation, addressing concerns over the alleged non-disclosure of significant foreign funding from sources like China."
Recently, the Trump administration has initiated an investigation into the University of California, Berkeley, centered on its foreign funding practices. This decision follows the administration’s broader campaign against universities it perceives as politically liberal. Notably, the inquiry highlights allegations that UC Berkeley failed to disclose substantial funding from foreign entities, specifically citing past reports of $220 million from China for a joint institute. The university has responded by asserting its commitment to compliance and transparency.
