The first Confucius Institute opened in the United States in 2005 at the University of Maryland, which closed in 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In May 2022, Alfred University was awarded a $13.5 million contract to support a project with the U.S. Army to \u201cconduct advanced manufacturing and characterization research of high temperature materials,\u201d according to an announcement from Alfred University. That research was meant to help materials withstand the extreme temperatures that occur when cruise missiles travel at hypersonic speeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This week\u2019s announcement comes after the committee said it would investigate Alfred University over hosting its institute. Gallagher sent a letter on May 31 to Defense Secretary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2023\/06\/12\/pentagon-celebrates-75-years-of-women-in-permanent-military-roles\/\" target=\"_blank\">Lloyd Austin<\/a>, where he requested information about the Pentagon\u2019s efforts to protect the United States\u2019 military research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 2021 National Defense Authorization Act prohibited the Pentagon from providing funds to colleges and universities that host a Confucius Institute. The 2021 NDAA gave universities a deadline of October 1, 2023, to end their relationships with the Chinese government-linked groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To date, three universities continue to conduct \u201csensitive military research\u201d while hosting a Confucius Institute on its campus, according to the statement. The University of Toledo and University of Utah continue to host the institutes on their campuses. St. Cloud State University has paused its institute\u2019s operations while the university conducts a review, according to the National Association of Scholars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alfred University did not respond to request for comment. More than 100 universities and colleges have closed \u2014 or are in the process of closing \u2014 their Confucius Institutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alfred University,
