The U.S. Department of Justice expanded enforcement efforts tied to Title VI compliance, launching new civil rights probes into medical school admissions over alleged race discrimination. The announcement follows previous DOJ findings involving high-profile universities, and it signals heightened scrutiny of how institutions evaluate applicants with federal funding. DOJ also opened an investigation into Arizona State University after secretly recorded videos surfaced alleging discriminatory practices tied to diversity, equity, and inclusion. The probe is expected to examine admissions, recruitment, scholarships, tutoring, and educational support. Together, the actions underscore a widening compliance focus that goes beyond policy language to how institutions implement admissions and support systems in practice—raising compliance risk for schools that operate under more permissive internal DEI frameworks.
