Trump orders changes to civil rights rules, college accreditation
 
President Donald Trump signed a flurry of executive orders Wednesday aimed at undoing his predecessor’s policies and furthering a conservative agenda to reshape American education.

The seven orders took on a wide range of topics, from discipline and the use of artificial intelligence in schools to foreign donations and accreditation at colleges.
 
Among the new orders is a directive to eliminate a civil rights enforcement tool long used to fight discrimination in education, housing and other aspects of American life — and long criticized by conservatives. Under the concept of disparate impact, actions can amount to discrimination if they have an uneven effect on people from different groups even if that was not the intent. It relies on data analysis to help identify discriminatory results.

The new order Trump signed Wednesday instructs the attorney general to “repeal or amend” Title VI regulations that include disparate impact liability.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Removing "disparate impact" is the key here...

Define 'groups' by US Census income and education level data, not by race.  One can change education and income; one cannot change race.
