Four teacher preparation programs receiving federal dollars are under investigation by the U.S. Department of Education after it received “credible reports” that they illegally discriminate by targeting aid toward non-white teachers.
According to information obtained by The Federalist, these programs are “designed to recruit, retain, and support future educators,” but some also operate with explicit racial intent to artificially alter the “diversity” of a teacher workforce by providing services based on race. The Office for Civil Rights (OCR), which is conducting the investigation, said the programs could be in violation both of Title VI and Title IX of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for race or sex discrimination, respectively.

The programs come from both institutions of higher education and state education agencies.
The City University of New York (CUNY) is under investigation for its NYC Men Teach Program which “aims to improve the diversity of the NYC teaching workforce by adding 1,000 male teachers of color into the teacher pipeline,” according to its website. ... .
The University of Maryland (UMD) School of Education received a nearly $100,000 grant from the Maryland Higher Education Commission’s Teacher Quality and Diversity Grant Program, providing aid to “students from groups historically underrepresented in the teaching profession.” It specifies that “historically underrepresented” meant “African Americans, American Indians/Alaska Natives, Hispanics/Latinos, those from low-income backgrounds, first-generation college students, and individuals with disabilities.”

Minnesota has two entities under investigation: the state Department of Education and the state Office of Higher Education.
Through its Education Tuition Assistance Program, which provides scholarships and stipends to teacher preparation programs, the department is able to target grants toward “teacher candidates of color and American Indian teacher candidates.”
