University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill reaches settlement with the Trump administration to close federal civil rights investigations

UNC-Chapel Hill agreed to a settlement with the Justice and Education Departments closing federal investigations into alleged antisemitism and race-based discrimination. The university admitted no wrongdoing and paid no penalty, but agreed to reforms including a Title VI coordinator, a merit and civil rights administrator, mandatory antisemitism training, restrictions on face coverings at demonstrations, and color-blind admissions policies. The agreement runs through December 2028.
