Do not be the university that caves.

The Trump administration is trying to negotiate with elite universities to strike a "deal." They're feeling the need for a political win after public opinion is in Harvard's corner (much to their surprise).

The White House is looking to strike a deal with a high-profile school, said the first source, who is involved in the higher education response. “They want a name-brand university to make a deal like the law firms made a deal that covers not just antisemitism and protests, but DEI and intellectual diversity,” this person said. “They want Trump to be able to stand up and say he made a deal with so-and-so – an Ivy League school, some sort of name-brand school that gives them cover so they can say, ‘We don’t want to destroy higher education.’”
