麻省理工学院拒绝与政策变更挂钩的联邦资金提案
摘要
麻省理工学院拒绝了一项将资金与政策变更挂钩的联邦提案，强调其对学术自由和基于优绩资助的承诺。
麻省理工学院（MIT）拒绝了特朗普政府提出的一项提案，该提案以采用特定政策变更为条件，提供联邦资金的优先支持。在致美国教育部长琳达·麦克马洪的信中，MIT校长萨莉·科恩布鲁斯表示，该提案将“限制言论自由”，并且“与我们核心信念不符——科学资助应仅基于科学优绩”。
该政府提出的“高等教育学术卓越契约”向包括MIT在内的九所大学提出，要求限制国际学生招生人数、采用二元性别定义以及使用标准化考试作为招生依据。
科恩布鲁斯强调，MIT已经在招生中使用标准化考试，并致力于在校园内促进自由表达。她指出，MIT的国际学生比例约为10%，低于提案中设定的上限。
其他收到该提案的高校包括布朗大学、宾夕法尼亚大学和德克萨斯大学。这些大学的回应尚未公布。
加利福尼亚州州长加文·纽森警告称，任何接受该协议的州立大学都将面临州资金削减，他表示：“加利福尼亚不会资助那些出卖学生、教授、研究人员并放弃学术自由的学校。”
