DOJ Launches Title VI Investigation Into Ohio State College of Medicine Admissions Policy
The DOJ seeks admissions data from 2019–2026 to assess Title VI compliance amid wider scrutiny of diversity, equity, and inclusion policies in medical school admissions.
- On Wednesday, the U.S. Department of Justice launched a compliance investigation into The Ohio State University College of Medicine, focusing on possible race discrimination in admissions.
- Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon, head of the DOJ's Civil Rights Division, initiated the review amid a broader shift toward challenging diversity, equity and inclusion policies.
- Investigators demanded 'any and all' admissions data by April 24, with Dhillon recently revealing on social media that her office is also probing Stanford and the University of California, San Diego.
- Ohio State University spokesperson Benjamin Johnson said the institution is 'fully compliant' with regulations and will 'respond appropriately' to the federal inquiry regarding Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
- Following the 2023 Supreme Court decision striking down affirmative action, Dhillon continues her campaign against DEI, recently posting that such policies 'must be destroyed' in Latin.
