Several colleges facing discrimination investigations have struck deals with President Donald Trump’s administration to restore withheld federal funding.

Brown University is the latest university to strike a deal, as the administration presses for agreements with others. Brown will pay $50 million to Rhode Island workforce development organizations in a deal with the Trump administration that restores lost federal research funding and ends investigations into alleged discrimination, officials said Wednesday.

The university also agreed to several concessions in line with President Donald Trump's political agenda. Brown will adopt the government's definition of “male” and “female,” for example, and must remove any consideration of race from the admissions process.
