Fortunately, that quota scheme would never be gamed. "Of course I'm a Republican. Look at my party registration. You say I'm not a Republican because I support Black Lives Matter, racial quotas, racial reparations, higher taxes, and censorship against misinformation. I am a proud member of the progressive wing of the Republican Party."

Of course it will be gamed -- in the future. If a quota system is started in 2025, requiring Rep registration from 2024 or before, it can't easily be gamed by BLM supporters who were NOT R in 2024.
Reps in Congress create a partisan Rep commission to accept or reject claims of being a Republican for the Trustees; with similar commission for the Dems.
Obviously you need Republican decision makers to have the power to specify criteria for being a Rep, like publicly supporting at least 2 of the last 3 Rep candidates (or 4 of 6).
Yeah, a Rep NeverTrumper who supported Romney & McCain, maybe like Liz Cheney, could qualify under this. But Trump will pass, win or not in 2024.
If a BLM supporting Harvard prof claims to be a registered R, but supports all Dem policies, he'll be a bit of a laughing stock known liar. Trolling works ok in tweets on X, but unlikely to get respect or status at any decent college.
I'd expect none of the top 100 endowed colleges to qualify -- and they'd all object as they lose their tax exemptions. Losing tax exemptions, then guaranteed student loans, than Fed research -- colleges like all orgs will follow the money. Quotas will lead to immediate attempts at change, as well as big increases in govt tax revenue from Dem orgs who haven't been paying their "fair share", yet arguing for more govt spending.
Roger, do you have a better idea? You realize you are claiming "no change, continued demonization of Reps" is preferable to quotas which help immediately but likely get somewhat gamed over time.
Finally, we need to accept that our society is split in values, and. like prosecutor & defense in court searching for truth, we need Rep partisans and Dem partisans in govt, checking and balancing the other and increasing the rule of law.
