Why the Trump Justice Department is demanding the University of Virginia president resign

The Trump administration's Justice Department is demanding the resignation of University of Virginia President James E. Ryan as part of a civil rights investigation into the school’s DEI programs. According to The New York Times, federal funding is at risk, and the push reflects a broader campaign to reshape US higher education. The demand, driven by conservative legal groups and top DOJ officials, is an unprecedented attempt to tie leadership changes to compliance with federal directives.
