White House opened funding compact to all higher ed.

All U.S. colleges and universities can reportedly now receive extra federal funding if they agree to a list of 10 terms. Those include banning the consideration of sex, race, ethnicity, political views, sexual orientation, and religious association for financial aid decisions, as well as capping foreign visas at 15% of the student population. The White House initially sent the compact to nine highly selective schools on Oct. 1. Critics say the conditions strip schools of their independence, and MIT was the first to reject the offer.
