University of Arizona becomes 6th out of 9 to reject Trump-era research compact

The University of Arizona has become the sixth of nine invited institutions to reject the Trump administration’s “Compact for Academic Excellence in Higher Education.” UA President Suresh Garimella cited the need to preserve academic freedom, institutional independence, and merit-based research funding. The compact links federal funding access to strict policy compliance. The Arizona Board of Regents supported UA’s decision, which also followed strong opposition from faculty, students, and local government bodies, as reported by the Arizona Daily Star (tucson.com).
