Demands for Data on Race and the Future of College Admissions

11 Sep 2025

Description

dotEDU is back for Season 7 with an examination of President Trump's demand for admissions data by race and sex and what that means for campuses. Hosts Mushtaq Gunja, Jon Fansmith, and Sarah Spreitzer—joined by ACE's Hiro Okahana—explain what's being requested, what's lawful, and the need to avoid misleading metrics and protect student privacy. Plus: updates on international students, Harvard's funding-freeze case, and the outlook on appropriations for the fiscal year that starts Oct. 1.   Here are some of the links and references from this week's show:  Trump Memo on Admissions Data  Ensuring Transparency in Higher Education Admission  The White House | August 7, 2025  U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon Directs National Center for Education Statistics to Collect Universities' Data on Race Discrimination in Admissions  U.S Department of Education | August 7, 2025  Trump Administration Orders Colleges to Submit New Admissions Data  ACE | August 11, 2025  Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS)  IPEDS  Inaccurate, impossible: Experts knock new Trump plan to collect college admissions data  The Hechinger Report | August 18, 2025  Trump's college admissions changes could backfire  Politico | August 15, 2025  Higher Education & The Trump Administration  ACE  International Students  DHS Proposal to Replace Duration of Status  NAFSA | September 9, 2025  Establishing a Fixed Time Period of Admission and an Extension of Stay Procedure for Nonimmigrant Academic Students, Exchange Visitors, and Representatives of Foreign Information Media  Federal Register | August 28, 2025  Letter to Secretary Rubio Urging Exemption of F/J/M Visas from Travel Ban (PDF)  ACE  Harvard Ruling  Federal Court Backs Harvard in Ruling, Echoing Concerns Raised in ACE Brief  ACE | September 5, 2025  FY 2026 Appropriations  House Bill Preserves Pell, Slashes Other Student Aid Programs  ACE | September 5, 2025  Senate Appropriators Reject Trump's Proposed Pell Grant and NIH Cuts  ACE | August 4, 2025  A Brief Guide to the Federal Budget and Appropriations Process  ACE  Government Shutdowns and Higher Education  ACE
