Howard University notified hundreds of first-year incoming students that their spots for the upcoming semester were no longer being held. This has left students like 17-year-old Keana Johnson scrambling for alternatives. Johnson, living in a New York City shelter, is considering the University of the District of Columbia, which has extended its application deadline. In response, other schools like the University of the District of Columbia and the State University of New York and City University of New York are opening or extending applications for admission deadlines to former Howard students scrambling to find campuses for the fall.
A school district in a rural corner of upstate New York is hitting pause on plans to deploy an AI-powered, humanoid robot in the classroom. Salamanca City Central School District had purchased the female-looking robot to enhance the education of high school students studying robotics and technology fields starting this fall.

A reworked Senate bill aims to regulate college sports by more than doubling the money schools can share with players. The Protect College Sports Act proposes up to $25 million for a “retention” pool to pay athletes to stay on rosters. This is in addition to the $21.3 million schools are allowed to spend this season. The House settlement calls for 22% of certain revenues to be shared with athletes. The bill's future in the Senate remains uncertain.
