特朗普政府把高管股的资金增加了50%,同时削减了对其他为少数族裔服务的学院的支助,引发了关于其种族公平动机的辩论。
The Trump administration increased HBCU funding by 50% while cutting support for other minority-serving colleges, sparking debate over its racial equity motives.
特朗普政府拨款4.95亿美元,用于资助历史上的黑人学院和大学以及部落学院,在2025财政年度增加50%,以扩大捐赠、改善设施以及支助学生和教职员工。
The Trump administration has allocated $495 million in new funding for Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and tribal colleges, a 50% increase for fiscal year 2025, to expand endowments, upgrade facilities, and support students and faculty.
虽然HBCU领导人欢迎这项投资,但专家们表示怀疑,注意到政府同时削减为西班牙裔服务机构提供的资金,并试图在主要由白人组成的学院中消除多样性、公平和包容(DEI)方案。
While HBCU leaders welcome the investment, experts express skepticism, noting the administration simultaneously cut funding for Hispanic-serving institutions and sought to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs at predominantly white colleges.
批评者认为,有选择地支持HBCU似乎是出于政治动机的,目的是在不赞同更广泛的种族公平努力的情况下宣传非种族主义意图,因为HBCU向所有学生开放,不使用种族配额。
Critics argue the selective support for HBCUs appears politically motivated, aiming to project nonracist intentions without endorsing broader racial equity efforts, as HBCUs are open to all students and do not use racial quotas.
