The Time article is clearer.

It's not a ban, it's rather a request than universities were free to follow. Of the 60 universities, 34 totally refuse any changes (including the 2 most prestigious), 17 abolish those programs, 9 will abolish elective courses in those programs to force students to take "more practical" electives.

well, that's somewhat of a relief
