Maybe with the democrats winning everything, plus the obvious power tech now has, they don't think there's much risk in actually breaking the law in this. But hey at least they're banning apps that haven't actually been proven to break the law.

From Wikipedia:

> Although HBCUs were originally founded to educate black students, their diversity has increased over time. In 2015, students who were either white, Hispanic, Asian or Pacific Islander, or Native American made up 22% of total enrollment at HBCUs, compared with 15% in 1976.[42]

He locked in funding over multiple years so that they didn't need to reapply for grants every year.
