So what form does the resistance take?

not if they want to keep doing their work - this administration has proven that it is extremely vindictive and will fire the most competent people because of personal grievances.
But that's okay because they are Republicans.

Depends on the facts of the case. Which we don't know.

Absurd. It's either happening or not. If it's happening, it's public record. Can't have your "easy class action lawsuit" without people talking publicly about what's happening. On the other hand, if it's not happening, that would explain why Tero is so vague.

Begging the question.

Is this the form the resistance takes? Logical fallacies and unsupported allegations?

She is not going to name the student, the student has enough grief from this.
The scholarship is named here.

It is happening - as is very easy to see - just ask anyone in Academia .

You are just desperate not to look
 
We have only about two counties protesting. Our Univesrsity is in both of them. I can feel at home here in my safe blue county, but the bulk of my state is red. From my blog:
What I am now thinking is that the state overall has gone too far into Trumpism. The voters. On one hand I am appalled at my neighbors voting for a candidate who is pretty much all about himself. What were they thinking? They cannot really like him, I tell myself. Must be that he scared them. On the other hand I realize that many of them are like Trump themselves. They have now rejected diversity. Perhaps the choice was just Trump vs Harris, but they also failed to see Trump would employ only evil people to run his four years. Musk was on stage with Trump. Musk now calls me, a retiree with 40 years contibuted to my field in America, a parasite.

I asked google instead. Seems no one anywhere, save this lone social media poster, is aware of this. She says 89 students are affected by the scholarship reversal and payback of the scholarship funds. Not only has no one else noticed this, but the program itself says (in an article dated about a week ago) that only16 students total received any kind of scholarship. The program itself is geared towards poor kids who want to get into a career in teaching in Nebraska, where they are woefully short on teachers.

Husker-led project is building the next generation of teachers | Nebraska Today

The pilot program will help recruit, retain and diversify the next generation of teachers. Led by University of Nebraska–Lincoln scholar Amanda Morales, the project is focusing initially on six districts dealing with teacher shortages and demographic shifts.

I looked. Seems this one teacher is repeating something she thinks she heard from one student the day before. There have been no other reports, or any of these alleged 89 students presenting the letter they received, even with personal info redacted. Nothing from the school, or program, or students, or parents. Nothing at all.

the left is so bad at messaging in part because we love nuance. we have trouble committing to little 2-5 word rhyming slogans and repeating them over and over. I'd posit that we need a bunch of those right now. on t-shirts and posters and in the mouth of every pundit for several years. for example:

Aw, bless. "What do we want, when do we want it" has entered the chat. Like the Left hasn't been spamming their slogans far and wide for generations. "My body, my choice!" Is Marian Call retarded? Or just ignorant?

Any local protests are likely to be sparsely attended tomorrow.

Dang, I thought it was going to be a copy of the letter supporting your claim about "DEI scholarship" claw-backs.

Keep hoping. No one else has reported hearing anything remotely like this. But hey, sounds good, right? That's all that really matters.
