波士顿，3月13日（路透社） – 一名联邦法官周五暂时阻止了唐纳德·特朗普总统政府要求高校在下周之前收集并提交数据的做法，以证明这些学校不再将种族作为招生因素。
美国马萨诸塞州联邦地区法院法官F.丹尼斯·塞勒四世（F. Dennis Saylor IV）应17名民主党州检察长的请求发布了一项临时限制令，这些检察长对美国教育部新增的一项强制性年度调查组件提起了诉讼。该调查组件用于从高校收集信息。

参与联邦学生资助项目的学校被要求提供学生种族和性别的招生相关数据，美国教育部计划利用这些数据追踪学校是否遵守美国最高法院2023年关于高等教育平权行动的裁决。
由共和党总统乔治·W·布什任命的法官指出，全国高校面临着周三即将到来的调查截止期限。他将截止日期延长至3月25日，以便有时间审理各州的诉讼并妥善解决相关问题。

美国教育部未立即回应置评请求。
争议的数据将通过综合高等教育数据系统（Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System）调查收集，自1986年以来，美国教育部国家教育统计中心一直使用该系统收集高校在财务、招生和学业成果等方面的信息。
特朗普指示对该调查进行了修改。他在8月的一份备忘录中称，由于“多样性声明”和其他明显及隐性的种族替代因素被“大量使用”，缺乏数据来评估种族是否仍然是招生因素。
备忘录发布后，美国教育部部长琳达·麦克马洪（Linda McMahon）宣布，高等教育机构需要报告按种族和性别分类的本科申请池和入学相关数据。
随后，美国管理和预算办公室在12月最终确定了这些新要求，要求收集2025-2026学年及之前六年的数据。

BOSTON, March 13 (Reuters) – A federal judge on Friday temporarily blocked President Donald Trump’s administration from requiring universities to collect and turn over data by next week to prove they are no longer considering race as an admissions factor.
U.S. District Judge F. Dennis Saylor IV in Boston issued a temporary restraining order, opens new tab at the request of 17 Democratic state attorneys, who sued over a newly-added component of mandatory, annual surveys administered by the U.S. Department of Education that are used to gather information from universities.

Schools that participate in federal student financial programs were asked to provide admissions-related data on the race and sex of students, which the department planned to use to track their compliance with the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2023 ruling ending affirmative action in higher education.
The judge, who was appointed by Republican President George W. Bush, noted that universities and colleges nationwide faced a looming Wednesday deadline to complete the survey. He extended that deadline through March 25 to provide time to hear the states’ case and provide for an “orderly resolution of the issues.”

The Education Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The data at issue would be gathered through the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System surveys, which since 1986 have been used by the Education Department’s National Center for Education Statistics to collect information from universities on matters like finances, admissions and outcomes.
The survey was altered at the direction of Trump, who in an August memorandum cited a lack of data to assess whether race remained an admissions factor after the Supreme Court’s decision given the “rampant use of ‘diversity statements’ and other overt and hidden racial proxies.”
Following the memo, Education Department Secretary Linda McMahon announced that institutions of higher education would need to report data disaggregated by race and sex relating to the undergraduate applicant pool and enrollment.
The Office of Management and Budget subsequently in December finalized the new requirements, which sought data from the 2025-2026 academic year and six prior years.
