UC Berkeley faces call for federal probe over alleged discriminatory student programs

Source: New York Post

UC Berkeley was slapped with a formal civil rights complaint on Tuesday that accuses the public university of promoting several racially exclusionary programs that favor minorities. The Equal Protection Project, a conservative nonprofit, urged the US Department of Education to launch an investigation into the school over its allegedly discriminatory programs. “The programs no[t] only are explicit in their discrimination, they also signal that discrimination,” the complaint reads.
