白宫寻求大学参与高等教育协议
摘要
白宫已邀请九所大学讨论一项旨在使高等教育机构与联邦优先事项保持一致的拟议协议，承诺特定政策以换取潜在利益。
白宫已邀请九所大学讨论一项名为“高等教育学术卓越协议”的提案，旨在使高校与联邦优先事项保持一致，以换取潜在利益。该协议列出了若干承诺，包括冻结学费五年、取消招生中的种族和性别考虑、将国际学生招生比例限制在15%以内，以及在校园内推广保守观点。作为回报，参与的大学将获得联邦资金的优先支持及其他优势。
被邀请的九所大学包括达特茅斯学院、亚利桑那大学、德克萨斯大学、弗吉尼亚大学、范德堡大学、布朗大学、宾夕法尼亚大学、南加州大学和麻省理工学院（MIT）。各校回应不一：麻省理工学院以担忧言论自由和机构独立性为由拒绝了邀请，而德克萨斯大学系统表示荣幸被考虑，目前正在审议该提案。
批评者认为该协议可能侵犯学术自由和机构自主权。美国大学教授协会将该提案形容为“类似忠诚誓言”，表达了对潜在偏袒和强加党派议程的担忧。
白宫已要求受邀机构于10月20日前反馈意见，计划于11月21日前敲定协议。这些讨论的结果可能对联邦政府与美国高等教育机构的关系产生重大影响。
