Along with black slums, where the homicide rate shot up under the prodding of the outgoing Obama Administration, prime loci of the Late Obama Age Collapse have been college campuses and public schools. The Trump Administration’s plan for curing the problems created by the Obama Administration is, apparently, to stop doing the things the Obama Administration did to encourage so many hate hoaxes like Haven Monahan, which traces back to the Obama Admin’s “Dear Colleague” letter, and nervous breakdowns over microaggressions that led to the Black Fall in 2015 at places like the U. of Missouri. Similarly, the Trump Administration will stop the Obama Administration’s policy of persecuting public-school districts for their causing black males to be more rowdy than Asian females. From the NYT:
Education Dept. Says It Will Scale Back Civil Rights Investigations

By ERICA L. GREEN JUNE 16, 2017

WASHINGTON — The Department of Education is scaling back investigations into civil rights violations at the nation’s public schools and universities, easing off mandates imposed by the Obama administration that the new leadership says have bogged down the agency.

According to an internal memo issued by Candice E. Jackson, the acting head of the department’s office for civil rights, requirements that investigators broaden their inquiries to identify systemic issues and whole classes of victims will be scaled back. Also, regional offices will no longer be required to alert department officials in Washington of all highly sensitive complaints on issues such as the disproportionate disciplining of minority students and the mishandling of sexual assaults on college campuses.

The new directives are the first steps taken under Education Secretary Betsy DeVos to reshape her agency’s approach to civil rights enforcement, which was bolstered while President Barack Obama was in office. The efforts during Mr. Obama’s administration resulted in far-reaching investigations and resolutions that required schools and colleges to overhaul policies addressing a number of civil rights concerns.

That approach sent complaints soaring, and the civil rights office found itself understaffed and struggling to meet the department’s stated goal of closing cases within 180 days.

In the good old days under Obama, the following was a federal matter:
For example, the department received a complaint that a black student at the Lodi Unified School District in California, about an hour south of Sacramento, received harsher punishment than a white student after the two were in a fight.
The Obama Administration was shocked, shocked to learn that black  students in the Lodi school district got in trouble more on average than other students:
According to a published settlement agreement, the investigation found that schools with higher percentages of black students established stricter punishment for discipline incidents, and a review of four years of data revealed that black students across the district received disproportionately higher levels of discipline than white students.
Something that the Obama Administration, however, never ever looked into was whether there is a single school district in this country where blacks don’t misbehave more often. Because, after all, that might raise doubts about federal power grabs in school districts that come under the Eye of Soros. If virtually every single school district in the country was guilty, then the Obama Administration could take over any school district’s policy on anything it wanted, usually with the cooperation of Obama-friendly elements within that district.
