About this listen

 In a major blow to historically Black colleges and universities, the Trump administration has cut nearly $350 million in federal funding for Minority-Serving Institution programs, including those supporting Hispanic, Asian American, and Native American students. Education Secretary Linda McMahon said the programs discriminated by restricting eligibility based on race. The move has sparked concern across higher education, raising questions about access, equity, and the future of federal support for under-resourced institutions.
