Northwestern University struck a $75 million deal with the Trump administration to end federal probes into antisemitism claims and unlock hundreds of millions in research grants. The agreement requires the university to revoke its April 2024 Deering Meadow accord with protesters, create training materials aimed at "socializing international students," and affirm compliance with federal anti‑discrimination laws. Education Secretary Linda McMahon called the package a model for other institutions. Interim president Henry Bienen said Northwestern refused to cede control over hiring, admissions or curriculum during negotiations; the settlement follows the resignation of former president Michael Schill and layoffs tied to the funding cutoff. The deal mirrors earlier settlements the administration secured with other elite schools and signals continued federal leverage over campus policy through research funding. University leaders and research offices will need to manage both immediate budget restorations and long‑term reputational fallout.
