Trump administration bars Harvard from future research grants

The Trump administration has decided to cut off federal funding from Harvard University due to claims of anti-Semitism and high foreign student admissions. In a letter to Harvard, Education Secretary Linda McMahon instructed the university to become privately funded, citing concerns about government control and viewpoint diversity. McMahon criticized Harvard for fostering lax academic standards and admitting students who engage negatively with American values, using all caps for emphasis. Harvard, fighting back in court, has pledged to defend its commitment to respect and combat government overreach.
