Brown University has reached a settlement with the Trump administration to restore federal funding in exchange for ensuring antisemitism is eradicated from the campus as well as DEI.

Brown will also pay a $50 million penalty over the next 10 years.

Here’s more from Reuters:

Brown University reached a deal on Wednesday with President Donald Trump’s administration to restore funding for the university’s federally sponsored medical and health sciences research and to resolve some compliance reviews, the university and the government said on Wednesday.

Brown University said that as part of the deal, it will pay $50 million over 10 years to support workforce development in Rhode Island. Education Secretary Linda McMahon separately confirmed the deal in a statement.

Brown agreed to take actions “to support a thriving Jewish community, research and education about Israel, and a robust Program in Judaic Studies,” according to the terms of the deal.

The deal says Brown will conduct a survey through an external party – jointly chosen by the university and the government – to evaluate its campus climate, including the climate for Jewish students.

The deal did not explicitly outline equivalent steps for Arab and Muslim students. Rights advocates note a rise in Islamophobia and antisemitism during the Israel-Gaza war.

Brown would submit the survey results to the government along with proposed actions to improve the situation, the deal notes.

The U.S. Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights may visit the university to interview staff and ask for other information to determine whether the deal is being complied with, the agreement notes, adding Brown will cease to have diversity targets and ensure its programs do not promote DEI.

 
President Trump congratulated Brown on the settlement this morning, saying there’d be no more ‘anti-anything’ on the campus and that woke is officially dead:

“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!”
