Trump Signs Executive Order Targeting University Accreditors, and Other Education Orders

Trump Signs Executive Order Targeting University Accreditors, and Other Education Orders
SHARE

President Trump recently took aim at college accreditors by signing an executive order that targets these largely unknown but long-established companies responsible for evaluating the educational quality and financial health of universities. This move is part of a larger effort by the Trump administration to reshape the higher education system, which the President believes is biased against conservatives. The administration has been clashing with elite universities over issues such as hiring practices, admissions policies, and curriculum content.

Accreditors play a crucial role in the higher education system as they determine whether colleges are eligible to receive access to the $120 billion in federal financial aid that is distributed each year. However, President Trump has criticized these organizations for promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion policies that he views as detrimental to the educational system.

The executive order signed by President Trump aims to make it easier for schools to switch accreditors and for new accrediting bodies to gain federal approval. Critics of the order, such as Bob Shireman from the Century Foundation, argue that it undermines institutional independence and could have negative consequences for the quality of education in the United States.

Education Secretary Linda McMahon has defended the administration’s actions, stating that the current accreditation system contributes to rising tuition costs and pushes universities in ideological directions. She believes that creating a competitive marketplace for higher education accreditors will help lower college costs, foster innovation, and deliver high-quality postsecondary education.

The Trump administration has framed its campaign against elite institutions as a fight against antisemitism and an effort to eliminate diversity initiatives. However, critics argue that the administration is attempting to impose its political agenda on the nation’s schools. The President has also signed executive orders related to artificial intelligence in schools, private-sector partnerships with historically Black colleges and universities, apprenticeships in skilled trade jobs, and transparency in foreign funding.

Additionally, the administration has focused on student discipline by issuing orders to ensure that disciplinary policies are not based on diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives and restricting the use of the disparate impact rule. These measures aim to address disparities in disciplinary actions that disproportionately affect minority students.

Overall, President Trump’s executive orders on education are part of a broader effort to reshape the higher education landscape in the United States. While some see these actions as necessary reforms, others are concerned about the potential impact on academic independence and educational quality. Only time will tell how these changes will ultimately shape the future of higher education in the country.
