Trump administration seeks to pull estimated US$100 million in Harvard funding KAYLA EPSTEIN and BERND DEBUSMANN The Trump administration will direct federal agencies to review their grants to Harvard University to potentially end or redistribute funding, as part of the White House’s escalating battle with America’s oldest university. The Government Services Agency (GSA) plans to circulate a letter to agencies “asking them to identify any contracts with Harvard, and whether they can be cancelled or redirected elsewhere”, a senior White House official says. The administration estimates about 30 contracts, collectively worth US$100 million, could be up for review. Harvard University did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The White House will not revoke the funds automatically, but rather kick off a review of money Harvard receives from the federal government to determine whether it is – in the administration’s eyes – critical. The GSA will recommend each agency “terminate for convenience each contract that it determines has failed to meet its standards” and consider reallocating those funds to other entities. A draft of the letter accuses Harvard of engaging in discrimination and antisemitism as justification for the move. An administration official told the BBC that potential cuts would not impact hospitals affiliated with Harvard University. If a federal grant is deemed critical to a particular agency’s functions, they said, that agency could make a case for continued funding. The White House and Harvard have been locked in a political, legal and financial battle whose stakes have dramatically escalated over the past two months. Last week, the Trump administration revoked Harvard’s ability to enrol international students or host foreign researchers, prompting mass confusion among thousands of impacted students. Harvard sued the Trump administration, alleging it has violated the university’s constitutional First Amendment rights as well as federal law. – BBC The post Trump administration seeks to pull estimated US$100 million in Harvard funding appeared first on The Namibian.

US to review US$9 billion in funding for Harvard University amid anti-Semitism concerns and campus protests The United States (US) government will review US$9 billion of funding for Harvard University over alleged anti-Semitism on campus, authorities said on Monday. This comes after it has cut millions from Columbia University, which has also seen fierce pro-Palestinian student protests. President Donald Trump has aggressively targeted prestigious universities that saw bitter protests sparked by Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza, stripping their federal funds and directing immigration officers to deport foreign student demonstrators, including those with green cards. Officials would look at US$255.6 million in contracts between Harvard and the government, as well as US$8.7 billion in multi-year grant commitments to the prestigious Ivy League institution, the general services administration has said in a statement. Critics argue that the Trump administration’s campaign is retributive and will have a chilling effect on free speech, while its supporters insist it is necessary to restore order to campuses and to protect Jewish students. Education secretary Linda McMahon said: “Harvard’s failure to protect students on campus from anti-Semitic discrimination – all while promoting divisive ideologies over free inquiry – has put its reputation in serious jeopardy.” “Harvard can right these wrongs and restore itself to a campus dedicated to academic excellence and truth seeking, where all students feel safe on its campus,” she said. In a statement, Harvard president Alan Garner said: “If this funding is stopped, it will halt life-saving research and imperil important scientific research and innovation.” “The government has informed us that they are considering this action because they are concerned that the university has not fulfilled its obligations to curb and combat anti-Semitic harassment.” Garner objected to this characterisation, saying the university has “strengthened our rules and our approach to disciplining those who violate them” over the past 15 months as a means of addressing anti-Semitism on campus. Trump has also targeted New York’s Columbia University, initially putting US$400 million of funding under review, detaining for deportation a graduate student linked to the protests, and seeking to arrest others. Columbia then announced a package of concessions to the government around defining anti-Semitism, policing protests and oversight for specific academic departments. They stopped short, however, of meeting some of the more strident demands of the Trump administration, which nonetheless welcomed the Ivy League college’s proposals. “Today’s actions by the task force follow a similar ongoing review of Columbia University,” said Monday’s official statement. “That review led to Columbia agreeing to comply with nine preconditions for further negotiations regarding a return of cancelled federal funds.” The post US to review US$9 billion in funding for Harvard University amid anti-Semitism concerns and campus protests appeared first on The Namibian.
