UC Berkeley Hit With Federal Investigation Over Foreign Funding

The Department of Education has just launched an investigation into UC Berkeley centering around foreign funding from China.

Allegedly, the major university failed to disclose a whopping $220 million in donations from the Chinese government for a new campus in Shenzhen.

Colleges and universities are required to report any foreign gifts valued at $250,000 or more to the Education Department.

In 2023, UC Berkeley admitted failing to properly disclose the millions of dollars in foreign government funding.
