President Trump Signs Executive Orders on Education Reform
Major shifts in U.S. education policy are underway. New executive orders aim to:
• Revamp college accreditation with a focus on student outcomes
• End ‘disparate impact’ civil rights enforcement
• Tighten scrutiny on foreign funding in universities
The reforms emphasize intellectual diversity and streamlined oversight. Supporters hail it as overdue modernization, while critics warn of risks to civil rights and academic autonomy.
