加州大学伯克利分校遭联邦民权调查:涉种族奖学金与学生中心,2月投诉触发

美国加利福尼亚州伯克利市消息,美国教育部已对加州大学伯克利分校展开民权调查,原因是该校三个学生项目与两项奖学金被投诉涉嫌基于种族、肤色或国籍的歧视。
调查内容披露于教育部民权办公室 11 月 3 日的一封信中,该信由《加州邮报》独家获得。教育部核实了这封信,并确认正在调查该校涉嫌违反联邦民权法的行为。这封由民权办公室首席律师阿纳玛丽亚·洛亚签署的信还警告该校,不得对投诉人或参与调查的任何人实施报复。
调查源于法律起义基金会 2 月 10 日提交的一份投诉,投诉针对的项目包括非裔美国人学生发展办公室、黑人资源中心、拉丁裔学生资源中心,以及非裔美国人倡议奖学金与劳埃德·A·爱德华兹奖学金。
加利福尼亚州选民于 1996 年通过第 209 号提案,禁止在公立大学招生与招聘中使用种族因素。伯克利调查是联邦政府针对加利福尼亚州公立大学采取的最新行动:2025 年 3 月,特朗普政府已对斯坦福大学与三所加州大学分校(伯克利分校、洛杉矶分校与尔湾分校)的招生政策展开调查。
UC Berkeley Faces Federal Civil Rights Investigation Over Race-Based Scholarships and Student Centers
BERKELEY, California — The U.S. Department of Education has opened a civil rights investigation into the University of California, Berkeley, over three student programs and two scholarships, after a February complaint alleged discrimination based on race, color or national origin.
The investigation was disclosed in a November 3 letter from the department's Office for Civil Rights, obtained exclusively by the California Post. The department verified the letter and confirmed it is investigating the university for alleged violations of federal civil rights law. The letter, signed by OCR Chief Attorney Anamaria Loya, also warns the university against retaliating against anyone who files a complaint or participates in the investigation.
The probe stems from a complaint filed February 10 by the Legal Insurrection Foundation, which targets the African American Student Development Office, the Black Resource Center, the Latinx Student Resource Center, the African American Initiative Scholarship and the Lloyd A. Edwards Scholarship.
California voters banned the use of race in public university admissions and hiring with Proposition 209 in 1996. The Berkeley probe is the latest federal action against California's public universities. In March 2025, the Trump administration opened investigations into admissions policies at Stanford and three UC campuses, including UC Berkeley, UCLA and UC Irvine.
