Ryan&#8217;s resignation followed.<\/p>\n<p>In a letter to the UVA community, Ryan explained that he &#8220;cannot make a unilateral decision to fight the federal government in order to save my own job.&#8221; He nodded to a broad threat of federal action against the university and its students if he remained in office.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To do so would not only be quixotic but appear selfish and self-centered to the hundreds of employees who would lose their jobs, the researchers who would lose their funding, and the hundreds of students who could lose financial aid or have their visas withheld,&#8221; Ryan wrote.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for the school said &#8220;UVA is committed to complying with all federal laws and has been cooperating with the Department of Justice in the ongoing inquiries.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The federal government&#8217;s support of the University is essential to continue the core mission of research, education and, clinical care,&#8221; said the spokesperson, Brian Coy.
