Description

Harvard University is suing the Trump Administration to stop a federal freeze on over $2.2 billion in grants. This lawsuit comes after Harvard announced it would not comply with the administration's requests to limit campus activism. In a letter dated April 11, the Trump administration called for extensive government and leadership reforms at Harvard and changes to its admissions policies. They also requested that the university review its approach to diversity on campus and cease recognizing certain student clubs. In its lawsuit, Harvard described the funding freeze as "arbitrary and capricious," arguing that it violates the university's First Amendment rights and contravenes the statutory provisions of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act.

That funding is conditional and certain conditions have to be met but uh that is clearly a civil rights violation and not a condition. Harvard has contributed so much to society in all fields. I mean only 8 presidents went there
