‘Students must be assessed according to merit and accomplishment, not prejudged by the color of their skin’

A year ago, the federal Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights began Title VI investigations into over 40 universities’ associations with the nonprofit The PhD Project for allegedly using “race-exclusionary practices” in their graduate programs.

The DOE had alleged in a March 2025 press release that The PhD Project “purports to provide doctoral students with insights into obtaining a Ph.D. and networking opportunities, but limits eligibility based on the race of participants.”
