Princeton under investigation after president deems racism 'embedded' in school

The New York Times also has an article [1], but interestingly, they used "Princeton Admitted Past Racism" in the title. Only in the 6th paragraph do they correct the misleading impression of the title and mention that he was referring to present racism as well.

This is some really great trolling by the Department of Education.

It amazes me that elite institutions like Princeton were so quick to come out and call themselves racist. Aren't they opening themselves up to endless lawsuits by saying that?
