Harvard University Row: Trump wants foreign students named to 'check if they’re okay' | N18G

President Donald Trump’s administration has escalated its crackdown on Harvard University, targeting foreign students and the university’s funding. Trump demanded Harvard reduce foreign student enrollment and provide their names, claiming no foreign government funds the school and threatening to reconsider U.S. grants. Last week, the administration revoked Harvard’s ability to enroll foreign students, a move temporarily blocked by a federal judge. Since taking office in January 2025, Trump has vowed to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs, signing executive orders against them and launching a multiagency Task Force to combat campus anti-Semitism. Harvard, among dozens of universities under investigation for alleged civil rights violations related to anti-Semitic harassment, faces reviews of its federal contracts and grants totaling billions. The administration has threatened to revoke Harvard’s tax-exempt status, halted new federal research funding, and initiated legal battles, with Harvard suing the government over these actions. The ongoing conflict highlights a broader effort to challenge elite universities’ policies and funding under Trump’s leadership.
