University of Virginia president resigns under pressure from Trump on DEI policies ...Middle East

News by : (Daily Sun) -

In a letter to the UVA community, Ryan said he had made the "excruciating decision" to step down after concluding that resisting Trump officials' demands would put the school's students and faculty at risk.

"To do so would not only be quixotic but appear selfish and self-centered to the hundreds of employees who would lose their jobs, the researchers who would lose their funding, and the hundreds of students who could lose financial aid or have their visas withheld."

It was not clear whether Ryan's resignation would take effect immediately.

The administration has launched a campaign against diversity, equity and inclusion and targeted colleges and universities that it has claimed are pushing antisemitic, anti-American, Marxist and "radical left" ideologies.

In a warning issued to UVA last week, the Justice Department said the government had concluded that the use of race in admissions and other student benefits were "widespread practices throughout every component and facet of the institution," according to the Times.
