US President-elect Donald Trump announced plans to reclaim American colleges from what he calls “radical Left” control. Trump aims to replace accreditors he claims allowed "Marxist" ideologies to dominate, stating that new accreditors will set standards to preserve Western values, reduce costs, and ensure free speech. He promised reforms like cutting administrative roles that raise tuition, enforcing entry and exit exams, and providing affordable degree options. Trump also plans civil rights cases against schools involved in racial discrimination and potential fines for those promoting equity policies he views as discriminatory. His statement follows recent campus protests over global political issues.
