The Trump administration is looking to fine the University of California, Los Angeles, $1.2 billion for the institution’s alleged practices of antisemitism, according to the Los Angeles Times

The fine is just one element of Trump’s 28-page settlement proposal to the university; other provisions include overhauling the institution’s admissions procedures and hiring practices as well as its policies surrounding athletics, scholarships, gender identity and discrimination, the Times reported. In exchange, the Trump administration would release about $500 million in stalled research grants from the National Institutes of Health and the Department of Energy.

Although a full copy of the letter has not been made public, the demands it lays out are very similar to those included in the agreements the Trump administration reached with Columbia and Brown Universities, the Times said. The paper also noted that the letter seemed thrown together quickly, contained a number of typos and made erroneous references to other universities.
