United States President Donald Trump asserted on Wednesday that Harvard should cap the amount of international students to around 15 percent to make more space for American applicants. The comments are followed by his administration cutting the university바카라s federal funding while also curtailing its ability to intake foreign students. He had also directed the institutes to share information about foreign students with the government.
Trump gave a statement to the media stating that, 바카라I think they should have a cap of maybe around 15 per cent, not 31 per cent. We have people who want to go to Harvard and other schools, but they can바카라t get in because we have foreign students there.바카라
The Trump administration has imposed these restrictions on Harvard as its leaders did not meet the administrations바카라 directives to crack down on the Pro Palestine protest, which they have labelled as antisemitic and also exert control over the university바카라s academia.
바카라Harvard has to show us their lists. They have foreign students, almost 31 percent of their students. We want to know where those students come from. Are they troublemakers? What countries do they come from?,바카라 he added further.
Trump also claimed that 바카라Harvard is treating our country with great disrespect바카라 and claimed that he wants 바카라Harvard to be great again.바카라
The university had earlier sought a stay on Trump바카라s directives which was granted on Friday. While releasing a statement, the University said that the order was part of a 바카라series of government actions to retaliate against Harvard for our refusal to surrender our academic independence and to submit to the federal government바카라s illegal assertion of control over our curriculum, our faculty, and our student body바카라.
Trump has also floated the idea of redirecting federal funds from Harvard to trade schools. "They바카라re taking $5 billion and I바카라d rather see that money go to trade schools. And by the way, they are totally anti-semitic at Harvard, as you know, and some other colleges too, in all fairness to them, and it바카라s been exposed, very exposed,바카라 he said.
