Brown University makes deal with Trump to regain federal funding, will pay $50 MILLION, scrap affirmative action

"Congratulations to Brown University on the settlement made with the United States Government. There will be no more Anti-Semitism, or Anti-Christian, or Anti-Anything Else! Woke is officially DEAD at Brown. Thank you for your attention to this matter!" President Donald Trump celebrated the agreement on Thursday with a post to Truth Social:

In addition to the $50 million, Brown has vowed to protect women's sports and facilities by disallowing trans-identified males from women's sex-segregated sports and spaces. The Brown University health system will also stop providing medical sex changes to minors, including no longer prescribing puberty blockers or sex change surgeries, according to The Hill.

Brown will also disband programs that contain “unlawful efforts to achieve race-based outcomes," as well as establish “merit-based admissions policies" for the school and scrap affirmative action practices.

Department of Education Secretary Linda McMahon celebrated the deal with Brown as well as other schools such as Columbia University and the University of Pennsylvania.

“The Trump Administration is successfully reversing the decades-long woke-capture of our nation’s higher education institutions. Because of the Trump Administration’s resolution agreement with Brown University, aspiring students will be judged solely on their merits, not their race or sex. Brown has committed to proactive measures to protect Jewish students and combat Antisemitism on campus. Women’s sports and intimate facilities will be protected for women and Title IX will be enforced as it was intended,” McMahon said.

Brown University President Christina Paxson wrote in a letter to the community, “By voluntarily entering this agreement, we meet those dual obligations. We stand solidly behind commitments we repeatedly have affirmed to protect all members of our community from harassment and discrimination, and we protect the ability of our faculty and students to study and learn academic subjects of their choosing, free from censorship.”
