Plaintiffs called on a federal judge to block the state-mandated restructuring of Kentucky State, including barring any program or employee cuts.他们还要求法官要求州官员提出一项计划，以纠正多年来该大学资金不足的情况。
Their attorneys point to multiple laws, findings and federal directives going back to the passage of federal civil rights legislation in the 1960s that have required state officials to bring Kentucky State’s funding in line with thatof University of Kentucky, the state’s other land-grant university.
Kentucky State was founded in 1886 as part of a segregated higher education system.In 1890, it became one of 19 land-grant HBCUs in the U.S. created under the Second Morrill Actthat directed states to establish such institutions if their existing land-grant universities excluded Black students.
In 1981, the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights concluded that Kentucky had continued to operate a segregated public higher ed system and mandated improvements at Kentucky State.
The federal government under the Biden administration found that Kentucky, along with 15 other states, systematically shortchanged their land-grant HBCUs.
