The Key Podcast: TRIO Cuts, Compact Responses and Looking for Signs of Life at ED
Posted by Inside Higher Ed on November 11, 2025
In this episode, Katherine Knott, Inside Higher Ed’s news editor, is back to help us unpack the latest higher ed news out of Washington. She speaks with editor in chief Sara Custer about the Trump administration’s higher ed compact—who’s said no, who’s said yes please, and who’s artfully dodging the question. We’ll give you the latest on the current round of negotiated rule making. Plus: the TRIO funding cuts affecting 40,000 students, UVA’s zero-dollar settlement that still cost them their president and looking for signs of life at the Department of Education.
