Trump suspends green card lottery program that let Brown University, MIT shootings suspect into US

The Diversity Immigrant Visa program, which grants up to 55,000 visas annually, was suspended after the Brown University suspect entered via this lottery, raising security concerns.

  • On Dec. 13, the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Federal Student Aid opened a probe into Brown University to examine potential Clery Act violations before and after the shooting.
  • Amid widespread reporting, officials cited gaps in Brown's campus surveillance and security systems and delayed emergency notifications reported by many students and staff.
  • Suspect Claudio Neves Valente, 48, fired at least 44 rounds from a 9 mm pistol in the Barus & Holley building, killing two students and wounding nine.
  • Brown placed Rodney Chatman on leave, named Hugh T. Clements interim, and announced more cameras, panic alarms, doubled patrols, plus external safety reviews; the Education Department demands records by Jan. 30, 2026.
  • If investigators find Clery Act breaches, Brown University could face fines or lose federal student aid, amid disputes over nearly $510 million in government funding.
