UCLA has been notified by the federal government that hundreds of millions of dollars in research funding have been frozen over charges of civil rights violations.

The Trump administration has frozen roughly $200 million in National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health and other federal agency-funded research at UCLA, citing allegations the school discriminates in admissions and has failed to protect the civil rights of Jewish students.

UCLA Chancellor Julio Frenk says that a loss of funding will impact everyone who relies on the "groundbreaking" research.
