flag USC rejects Trump-era funding deal tied to conservative education rules.

flag The University of Southern California has rejected a Trump administration proposal linking federal funding to strict academic conditions, including limits on international students, tuition freezes, and ideological mandates on topics like gender and race. flag Interim President Beong-Soo Kim cited concerns over academic freedom, institutional autonomy, and the potential erosion of free inquiry. flag The decision follows rejections by MIT, Brown, and the University of Pennsylvania, and reflects broad opposition from faculty, students, and California Governor Gavin Newsom, who warned of federal overreach threatening higher education’s core values.
