Harvard professors sue Trump over threat to $9 billion in funds
The administration’s review of Harvard includes $8.7 billion in grants and $225.6 million in contracts.
Harvard University’s professors sued the Trump administration on Friday over its threat to scrutinize billions of dollars of federal funding.
The lawsuit, filed by Harvard’s chapter of the American Association of University Professors, accuses the administration of exploiting Title VI of the Civil Rights Act to “coerce universities into undermining free speech and academic inquiry in service of the government’s political or policy preferences.”
The administration’s review of Harvard includes $8.7 billion in grants and $225.6 million in contracts. The university came under scrutiny after the government indicated it would seek major changes at the country’s top educational institutions after pro-Palestinian student protests.
Comment:
Why should Harvard be getting federal funding.
They have over $50 billion in endowment.
They should be spending their own money.
