Release-to-release tracker diff with separate policy-text, newly-extracted claim, evidence, and source snapshot categories.

Change summary

Current public record freshness and review state.

Brown University currently has 9 source-backed claim records and 6 official source attributions. Latest tracked changed date: May 12, 2026. No tracker diff rows are recorded in the latest public release.

This tracker is not legal advice, not academic integrity advice, and not an official university statement unless a linked source is the university's own official page.

Newly extracted claims are tracker additions and are not necessarily newly published by the university. Source snapshot changes show hash changes for the same source URL and are not by themselves policy changes.
