Not only has Columbia agreed to give political commissars oversight over admissions, including a mandatory annual data transfer, they did so while agreeing to language emphasizing that nothing in the deal prevents the government from launching more investigations, reviews, and litigation.
Columbia University has handed over its undergraduate admissions process to Donald Trump and his MAGA allies, who will now decide at their sole discretion whether the university has admitted enough white people. It's no longer an independent institution.
