No Tax Dollars for College Encampments Act of 2025

This bill amends the Higher Education Act to require colleges receiving federal funds to disclose how they handle "civil disturbances" (defined as protests, riots, or strikes disrupting campus safety or learning) in their security policies. It directly affects institutions of higher education that receive federal student aid or other HEA-related funding. Key provisions include adding a specific requirement for schools to report on responding to such disruptions and mandating accreditors to monitor compliance with this new security reporting standard. The law does not prohibit protests but changes how schools must document and address campus disruptions that interfere with safety or education.
