"The Trump administration may seek to enforce a deal with Columbia University through a consent decree, enabling long-term oversight of the university's operations."
"A consent decree would allow President Trump to maintain influence over Columbia University while the administration seeks to restore $400 million in funding."
The Trump administration is exploring the enforcement of a consent decree with Columbia University to maintain oversight over the institution's dealings. This move comes after the administration canceled approximately $400 million in grants, citing unaddressed harassment of Jewish students. A consent decree could solidify the administration's influence over Columbia and potentially set a precedent for other universities, though negotiations are pending. While Columbia's spokesperson has not confirmed discussions around the decree, the university is actively seeking a restoration of critical research funding from the federal government.
