Probationary workers were fired, employees were blocked from accessing information on their computers, and a national center that dates to the time of Abraham Lincoln was effectively decommissioned overnight. Employees worked late into the evenings downloading data that had taken decades to compile, according to interviews with more than a dozen people fired from the Institute of Education Sciences (<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/IES" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IES</span></a>), an independent and nonpartisan agency within the U.S. Department of Education [<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/DOE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DOE</span></a>], and its National Center for Education Statistics (<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/NCES" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NCES</span></a>)…IES, which had 173 employees before the cuts, was left with just over a dozen after Elon <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Musk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Musk</span></a>’s Department of Government Efficiency swept through the Education Department early last month. The crippling of the office was so swift and haphazard that it left serious doubts about how much of the educational data that has informed higher-education policy and practice will continue to be available." </p><p><a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/DefendResearch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DefendResearch</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/OpenData" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenData</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Takedowns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Takedowns</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPol</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USPolitics</span></a></p>
