The US Department of Education has launched a sweeping probe into dozens of universities that allegedly use discriminatory race-based programs to boost minorities, officials said Friday.
The investigation of 45 colleges — including New York University, Cornell and Rutgers — stems from the schools allegedly running a PhD program that discriminates based on skin color, a violation of Title VI, which authorizes federal student financial aid, the department said in a press release.
