US Education Department launches civil rights investigation into Duke

Source: United Press International

“The Department of Education has launched a civil rights investigation into Duke University amid the Trump administration’s crackdown on higher-learning institutions as it seeks to rid the private and public sector of diversity, equity and inclusion policies. The civil rights investigation was launched Monday into not only Duke but its law journal for violating Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by allegedly discriminating against students based on race. The investigation coincides with the departments of Education and Health and Human Services sending a joint letter to Duke University outlining their ‘shared concerns’ about its use of race in its hiring, admissions and scholarship decisions.” (07/29/25)
