SUMMARY:Executive Branch Updates: What to Know About the Federal Grant Termination Trend
DESCRIPTION:Briefing\n\nWhat Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\n\n\nFederal grant terminations used to be rare. Under an Office of Management and Budget rule implemented during President Donald J. Trump’s first term\, the second Trump Administration has prioritized cancellation of grants\, which it has determined “no longer effectuates… the program goals or agency priorities.” When grants are abruptly terminated by federal agencies\, postsecondary institutions can lose millions of dollars\, setting off a cascade of on campus impacts related to the loss and wind-down of particular research\, as well as the jobs and infrastructure supported by indirect cost funds. Today’s campus counsel must be prepared to advise their clients on the nuances of unique grant termination regulations for different federal agencies\, including the National Institutes of Health (NIH)\, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)\, National Science Foundation (NSF)\, and Department of Energy (DOE).   \n\n\n\nPlease join us for this 45-minute audio-only briefing in which NACUA experts Steve Sencer\, Counsel at Ropes & Gray LLP\, and Nicole Picard\, Associate General Counsel at Brown University will:  \n\n\n\n\nProvide an update on the latest federal grant termination trends;\n\n\n\nReview the latest considerations for institutional appeal rights and related processes; and\n\n\n\nOffer insight on the most important steps colleges and universities should take both before and immediately after they receive a notice of termination.\n\n\n\n\nWho Should Attend?  \n\n\n\nThis briefing will be of interest to college and university counsel who advise on federal research grants\, as well as colleagues in offices of sponsored research and grant managers. \n\n\n\nNote: This program is the first in NACUA’s “Executive Branch Updates” series\, which follows the Transition Updates: The First 100 Days series. This content of this audio-only briefing builds on the First 100 Days series briefing\, Federal Grants: What Counsel Need to Know Today (April 11\, 2025). Members seeking further\, in-depth\, CLE-eligible content are also encouraged to sign up for NACUA’s upcoming two-hour Executive Branch Updates webinar\, A New World of Federal Fun(?)ding (June 4\, 2025).    \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n    \n                    \n                                    \n                                            \n                                Joshua Richards\n            \n            \n                \n                        \n                    \n                \n                                            \n                                                    \n                                        \n                        Joshua Richards\n                        Saul Ewing \n                                                    Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing \n                                                                    \n                \n                \n                                            \nJosh Richards is a partner at the Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing.

SUMMARY:The First 100 Days | Federal Grants: What Counsel Need to Know Today 
DESCRIPTION:Briefing\n\nWhat Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\n\n\nThe Trump administration’s shift in policy priorities has led to wide-scale rescission of grant funds awarded by a range of federal agencies\, deeply impacting the research and educational activities of colleges and universities.  Even where funding has not been terminated\, wide-ranging demands and certifications\, presenting a high degree of risk to individuals and institutions\, are being required to maintain eligibility for funds.  Counsel are being called upon to advise on institutions’ responses and compliance activities related to the rapidly changing landscape for grant funding\, often under extraordinary circumstances testing the already-stretched bandwidth of the legal function. As this situation continues to unfold\, it is crucial for counsel to have a strong grounding in the basics of federal grant awards\, particularly the options available for responding to a termination of funds\, as well as considerations and strategies for communications and certifications related to ongoing grant awards.     \n\n\n\nPlease join us for a 30-minute audio-only briefing during which NACUA member-experts\, William Ferreira and Michelle Gluck\, will provide an overview of the recent activity related to federal grant funding and the top considerations for effectively representing and advising your institution on this critical issue.  \n\n\n\nThis briefing is a part of NACUA’s Transition Updates: The First 100 Days series.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n    \n                    \n                                    \n                                            \n                                Joshua Richards\n            \n            \n                \n                        \n                    \n                \n                                            \n                                                    \n                                        \n                        Joshua Richards\n                        Saul Ewing \n                                                    Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing \n                                                                    \n                \n                \n                                            \nJosh Richards is a partner at the Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing.

SUMMARY:Fireside Chat: Farewell to the Department of Education?
DESCRIPTION:Briefing\n\nWhat Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\n\n\nOn March 3\, newly confirmed U.S. Department of Education Secretary Linda McMahon issued her statement regarding the Department’s “Final Mission.” That same day the Task Force on Antisemitism announced its initial investigations regarding alleged violations of Title VI and shortly thereafter announced that it was withholding $400 million in federal funding from Columbia University. On March 10\, the Task Force on Antisemitism announced an additional 60 investigations into postsecondary institutions across the United States; March 14 saw the announcement of another 45 investigations\, pertaining to enforcement of the February 14 Dear Colleague Letter.  \n\n\n\nThe continued viability of the Department itself may also be in question. On March 6\, a draft executive order leaked to the public\, which sets forth steps the Trump Administration anticipates taking to “facilitate the closure of the Department of Education and return authority over education to the States and local communities\,” just before thousands of Department staff were laid off via a mass reduction in force.  \n\n\n\nTo parse the nuance of these myriad actions and their impacts on the practice of higher education law\, please join NACUA for a 45-minute fireside chat featuring NACUA Board Chair Traevena Byrd\, Vice President\, General Counsel & Secretary to the Board at American University\, in conversation with Lisa Brown\, Partner and Higher Education Practice Group Head at WilmerHale and former U.S. Department of Education General Counsel. This fireside chat is being held in collaboration with the National Association of Independent Colleges & Universities (NAICU)\, and the event will only be open to members of NACUA and NAICU.  \n\n\n\nThis fireside chat is a part of NACUA’s Transition Updates: The First 100 Days series.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n    \n                    \n                                    \n                                            \n                                Joshua Richards\n            \n            \n                \n                        \n                    \n                \n                                            \n                                                    \n                                        \n                        Joshua Richards\n                        Saul Ewing \n                                                    Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing \n                                                                    \n                \n                \n                                            \nJosh Richards is a partner at the Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing.

SUMMARY:The First 100 Days: A Discussion on DEI with Dear Colleagues
DESCRIPTION:Briefing\n\nWhat Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\n\n\nSince taking office in January\, the Trump administration has issued Executive Order 14151: Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing\, Executive Order 14173: Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity\, and the February 14th Dear Colleague Letter directing institutions to end programs related to diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. In response\, several lawsuits have been filed challenging the Executive Orders and Dear Colleague Letter. On February 21\, 2025\, a federal judge issued a preliminary injunction blocking several provisions of the Executive Orders. With additional litigation and guidance expected\, campus counsel must keep abreast of these developments to understand and deliver the best possible advice and counsel to your campus.   \n\n\n\nPlease join us for a 30-minute audio-only briefing during which NACUA presenters\, Dwight J. Draughon\, Jr. and Lauren Schoenthaler\, will provide an overview of the Executive Orders and the February 14 DCL relating to DEI\, as well as legal challenges to those initiatives.

SUMMARY:The First 100 Days: Immigration Law
DESCRIPTION:Briefing\n\nWhat Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\n\nA keystone of President Trump’s campaign was the promise to intensify immigration enforcement. The first weeks of his second administration included the issuance and implementation of executive orders to begin this work. Additionally\, the acting U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary issued a directive rescinding longstanding policy on refraining from immigration enforcement actions at “sensitive locations” or “protected areas\,” including educational institutions. At the same time\, the Attorney General at the U.S. Department of Justice issued a memo directing the Department to restrict funding to jurisdictions and organizations that support or provide services to undocumented immigrants\, among other mandates. Campus counsel must advise and communicate with various constituents across campus on these rapidly evolving developments.  \n\n\n\nPlease join us for a 30-minute audio-only briefing during which NACUA member-experts\, Leigh Cole and Michael Pfahl\, will provide an overview of where the law stands\, insights that can be gleaned from comparative realignment of immigration activities across previous administrations\, and advice on how to counsel your clients now.   \n\n\n\nThis briefing is part of NACUA’s Transition Updates: The First 100 Days Series.   \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n    \n                    \n                                    \n                                            \n                                Joshua Richards\n            \n            \n                \n                        \n                    \n                \n                                            \n                                                    \n                                        \n                        Joshua Richards\n                        Saul Ewing \n                                                    Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing \n                                                                    \n                \n                \n                                            \nJosh Richards is a partner at the Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing.

SUMMARY:The First 100 Days: What’s Happened So Far
DESCRIPTION:Briefing\n\nWhat Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\n\nThe second Trump administration has quickly issued a series of sweeping executive orders impacting students\, faculty\, and staff\, college and university operations\, and the mission of higher education institutions.  Several orders have attracted legal challenges\, while administrative agencies have taken initial steps to implement those that have not been blocked by the courts.  All the while\, counsel have worked overtime to advise and communicate with college and university clients and to set the tone for calm and deliberate action to advance the interests of their institutions.  As the third week of the new administration draws to a close\, it is necessary to pause and reflect on where we find ourselves as a higher education community and to take stock of the landscape that is shifting beneath our feet.    \n\n\n\nPlease join us for a 30-minute audio-only briefing during which NACUA member-experts\, Danielle Conley and Kate Hudson\, will provide an overview of the most impactful executive orders and what they mean for higher education.   \n\n\n\nThis briefing is a part of NACUA’s Transition Updates: The First 100 Days series.   \n\n\n\nUt ut euismod ante.

SUMMARY:What Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona
DESCRIPTION:Briefing\n\nWhat Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\n\nThe policy pendulum of Title IX continues to swing\, and this time it has swung back to 2020. On January 9\, 2025\, the U.S District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky issued its decision in Tennessee v. Cardona\, granting summary judgment in favor of the plaintiff states of Kentucky\, Virginia\, Indiana\, Tennessee\, and West Virginia\, and vacating the 2024 Final Rule. The Court found that that U.S. Department of Education exceeded its authority in implementing the regulations and that the Final Rule and its corresponding regulations also violate the U.S. Constitution. Although the primary thrust of the challenge was to the inclusion of “gender identity” as a protected category within sex-based harassment\, the decision impacts additional changes brought about by the Final Rule including those pertaining to handling grievances\, training\, recordkeeping\, processing complaints\, as well as the extended protections for pregnancy and related conditions.   \n\n\n\nPlease join us for a 30-minute briefing during which NACUA member-experts will provide an overview of Tennessee v. Cardona\, its implications for Title IX in postsecondary education\, and practical pointers for steps you can take now. The briefing will be of interest to counsel and their campus colleagues who work in Title IX and other antidiscrimination offices.   \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n    \n                    \n                                    \n                                            \n                                Joshua Richards\n            \n            \n                \n                        \n                    \n                \n                                            \n                                                    \n                                        \n                        Joshua Richards\n                        Saul Ewing \n                                                    Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing \n                                                                    \n                \n                \n                                            \nJosh Richards is a partner at the Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing.

DESCRIPTION:Briefing\n\nWhat Now? Title IX in the Aftermath of Tennessee v. Cardona\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\n\nPresident Joseph R. Biden\, Jr. signed the Stop Campus Hazing Act (the “Act”) into law on December 23\, 2024\, to address concerns about injuries and deaths on college campuses related to hazing activities. The Act\, which amends the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act\, imposes several requirements on colleges and universities\, many of which already became\, or will soon become effective. Notably\, the Act requires institutions to compile and disclose an additional class of broadly-defined hazing statistics in a distinct new report\, to disclose additional information in Annual Security Reports\, and to publish information related to anti-hazing policies and prevention programs.  \n\n\n\nPlease join us for a 30-minute audio-only briefing during which NACUA member-experts\, Guilherme Costa and Janet Judge\, will provide an overview of the Act and offer practical insights for counsel and compliance colleagues who focus on areas most at risk for potential hazing activity on campus.  \n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n    \n                    \n                                    \n                                            \n                                Joshua Richards\n            \n            \n                \n                        \n                    \n                \n                                            \n                                                    \n                                        \n                        Joshua Richards\n                        Saul Ewing \n                                                    Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing \n                                                                    \n                \n                \n                                            \nJosh Richards is a partner at the Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing.

SUMMARY:The 2024 Title IX Regulations are Here!

As anticipated\, this Rule reverses several changes made by the Trump Administration\, which took effect in 2020\, by “provid[ing] greater clarity regarding the definition of ‘sex-based harassment;’ the scope of sex discrimination\, including recipients’ obligations not to discriminate based on sex stereotypes\, sex characteristics\, pregnancy or related conditions\, sexual orientation\, and gender identity; and recipients’ obligations to provide an educational environment free from discrimination on the basis of sex.”   \n\n\n\nIn this 30-minute\, audio-only briefing\, NACUA members\, Patty Petrowski (University of Michigan)\, Bindu Jayne (Swarthmore College)\, and Josh Richards (Saul Ewing LLP)\, will offer a brief overview of the final regulations and highlight some of the most significant areas of departure from existing regulations. This free audio briefing is open to all NACUA members who register.      \n\n\n\nPlease Note: This is an audio-only overview.  A more comprehensive webinar with a PowerPoint presentation\, additional materials\, and slides will follow in the coming weeks.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n    \n                    \n                                    \n                                            \n                                Joshua Richards\n            \n            \n                \n                        \n                    \n                \n                                            \n                                                    \n                                        \n                        Joshua Richards\n                        Saul Ewing \n                                                    Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing \n                                                                    \n                \n                \n                                            \nJosh Richards is a partner at the Philadelphia office of Saul Ewing.
