University of Virginia Signs White House Deal to End Probes

The University of Virginia became the latest college to strike a deal with the Trump administration, settling civil rights investigations that threatened the school’s federal funding and cost its former president his job.

As part of the accord, the university agreed to provide the government with data on its admissions and hiring processes, as well as campus programming, through 2028, according to a statement Wednesday from the Justice Department. In return, the department agreed to close its anti-discrimination probes of the Charlottesville-based school and enable UVA to apply for federal grants.
