Text of a statement by MSCHE in response to Supreme Court ruling that Trump admin can proceed to decimate USDE. MSCHE "recognizes the challenges... We remain dedicated partners within the regulatory triad... we look forward to... any proposed staffing plan that not only reduces bureaucracy but also results in the strengthening of the higher education community..."

Truly embarrassing, cowardly statement by Middle States. Way to stand up for higher ed #MSCHE ! "constituents are encouraged to outreach to their elected representatives" "we look forward to the complete analysis of USDE’s activities and any proposed staffing plan that not only reduces bureaucracy"
