The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities and a coalition of organizations that includes Asian Pacific Americans in Higher Education and National Coalition of Predominantly Black Institutions, joined in the signing of letters to House and Senate members urging action to protect critical federal resources for Minority-Serving Institutions (MSIs). The letter follows an announcement made on September 15, 2025, by the U.S. Department of Education that it would rescind critical federal resources from Minority-Serving Institutions.
