💨 Abstract

The Trump administration is seeking a $1 billion settlement from UCLA amid allegations of antisemitism and affirmative action violations. The university has disputed these claims, noting that a $584 million grant was suspended recently. UCLA's president, James B. Milliken, criticized the settlement request as harmful to the university and the state of California. UCLA previously settled a $6 million lawsuit with Jewish students and a professor over anti-Palestinian protests in 2024.
