If you are a university technologist or administrator, and you have the ability (political and/or technical) to dump data the university doesn't need, it's time.
That includes students' and employees' races, religions, gender markers (probably including pronouns, and I hate that, we fought so hard for that), countries of origin — anything you aren't *required* to keep needs to go.
You can put counts of those things into a database for reporting purposes, but they can't be tied to individuals.
This is something else. Trump regime is demanding UPenn compile and turn over lists of Jewish facts and students to the Trump executive branch. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/13/upenn-trump-jews-list
