A new state office received 69 complaints about Texas universities, including allegations of banned DEI initiatives, restrictions on conservative speech and interference in academic affairs.

All but one complaint was closed without investigation, records obtained by The Texas Tribune show.

The Office of the Ombudsman's only investigation opened during its first five months examined whether an academic assistance program violated the state's ban on diversity, equity and inclusion by censoring conservative speech while encouraging liberal political speech and antisemitic speech, according to the records.
