The Trump administration announced slashing another $450 millions in grants to Harvard on Tuesday, on top of the preexisting $2.2 billions that were cut last week.
The government바카라s eight agencies came together to cancel the $450 million funding, one day after Harvard President Alan Garber said that it shared "common ground" with the Trump administration.
바카라Jewish students were subjected to pervasive insults, physical assault, and intimidation, with no meaningful response from Harvard바카라s leadership,바카라 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services mentioned in a statement on Tuesday, announcing the grant cuts.
Harvard University - one of the oldest and most prestigious in the country - has been latest in line to catch Trump바카라s eye in his nationwide crackdown on campus activism. The Republican administration since coming to power in January has sent letters to multiple Ivy league universities, suggesting overhauling changes in policies and curriculum.
While many universities like Columbia University gave into the demands of Trump in the face of threats of fund slashing - Harvard University persisted.
Government바카라s Tuesday letter to Harvard mentioned that the 바카라campus, once a symbol of academic prestige, has become a breeding ground for virtue signaling and discrimination. This is not leadership; it is cowardice. And it바카라s not academic freedom; it바카라s institutional disenfranchisement.바카라
In a letter to Education Secretary Linda McMahon, Harvard President Alan Garber on Monday asserted that "we share common ground on a number of critical issues," according to media reports.
바카라Harvard바카라s efforts to achieve these goals are undermined and threatened by the federal government바카라s overreach into the constitutional freedoms of private universities and its continuing disregard of Harvard바카라s compliance with the law,바카라 Garber바카라s letter said.
The challenges in the academic year - after the October 7, 2023 Hamas assault on Israel - have led to meaningful reform and recommendations designed to eliminate antisemitism and other forms of hate from Harvard, Garber wrote.
Last month when the Trump administration had just started its crackdown on Harvard, Garber asserted that "the University will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights," in a letter to the Harvard community, saying that these demands violate the First Amendment rights of the students.
