In April, the #Trump admin abruptly froze planned federal #research #funding for the #university. The govt had been scrutinizing #Cornell after accusing it of racial discrimination & antisemitism, & the university acknowledged receiving dozens of stop-work orders.
University leaders made clear that the #school was feeling extraordinary financial strain. The university has been considering issuing about $1 billion in bonds.

Under the terms of the agreement, #Cornell is expected to pay a $30 million #fine to the govt & to invest another $30 million on programs designed to enhance efficiency & lower costs in #agriculture & #farming [they already have a world renowned Ag School]. A land-grant institution, Cornell is known for its agricultural #research programs.

For those of you thinking about AI use in its various forms in social scientific research, Due Cuong Nguyen & Catherine Welch suggest that this use is not only distorting analysis but actually leading researchers to make erroneous conclusions.
The paper is available open access; like all academic article its not an easy read, but if you're interested in AI (especially in university settings) then its likely of interest.

"As is so often the case with Mr. Trump, he has both identified a real problem and enacted a set of policies that will worsen that problem. His administration is rejecting basic medical knowledge and turning back the clock to an era when people were sicker and died sooner."

"Given this... the Court respectfully submits that it is unhelpful and unnecessary to criticize district courts for 'defy[ing]' the Supreme Court when they are working to find the right answer in a rapidly evolving doctrinal landscape, where they must grapple with both existing precedent and interim guidance from the Supreme Court that appears to set that precedent aside without much explanation or consensus."
