Trump Admin Seeks Colleges’ Reform Plans via Public Questionnaire
The Trump administration, led by Education Secretary Linda McMahon, issued a national call to action asking colleges and universities to publicly answer a set of questions on admissions transparency, affordability, free speech, and research integrity with the aim of boosting public accountability and guiding future funding decisions; the move marks a softer, more consultative approach than the earlier Compact for Academic Excellence, and it invites institutional input from groups like the AAU, with responses requested by year-end.
