Isn’t NYU a state school? How does the president have any authority to give any orders to it?
Generally that power is financial. The government can’t directly tell private institutions like NYU what to do.
But they can, and do, take away or withhold government funds for grants and research.
Buuuut … all that is held up right now. And if Trump has his way, that’s all gone regardless.
So I’m guessing this is a classic case of making decisions by the university based on old thinking.
FAFSA (student financial aid) is also a big reason for the Fed 's “authority” over private and state colleges
Thank you for not saying FASFA. I’m a grammar and spelling square in my soul, but this is one of the mistakes that absolutely drives me up the wall. Teachers, students, university staff; I’ve heard them all say it this way.
NYU is a private university and isn’t part of the SUNY system
Many state schools receive federal funding in the form of grants, but also this hasn’t stopped Musk and his cronies from trying to strongarm other places like Costco.
Seattle Children’s Hospital is doing the same for the time being.
