No grants for Harvard unless…

There would be no new federal grants for Harvard University until it meets the demands of the Trump administration.

The Trump administration has already frozen US$2.2 billion and Trump is pushing to strip the tax exempt status of the education institution.

Education Department said Harvard ill receive no new federal grants until it “demonstrates responsible management of the university” and satisfies federal demands on a range of subjects.

The ban is specifically on federal research grants and not financial aid for students.

The department viewed the outstanding issues as serious failures.

The issues, among others, are Harvard has allowed antisemitism and racial discrimination to perpetuate, it has abandoned rigorous academic standards, and it has failed to allow a range of views on its campus.

To become eligible for new grants, Harvard would need to enter negotiations with the federal government and prove it has satisfied the administration’s requirements.

The Trump administration has demanded that Harvard make broad government and leadership changes, revise its admissions policy and audit its faculty and student body to ensure the campus is home to many points of view.
