What the Harvard investigation means for the future of diversity in US higher education

The congressional investigation into Harvard’s hiring practices is raising broader concerns about the future of diversity in US higher education. Lawmakers allege violations of Title VII, citing internal documents that encouraged race and gender considerations in faculty recruitment. Following similar legal and political pressure, Harvard Medical School has already dismantled DEI programs. As reported by the Harvard Crimson, experts believe this case could influence policies at other US universities amid growing scrutiny under President Trump’s administration.
