Upholding Our Values, Defending Our University. AI-Generated.
Following Harvard's refusal to comply with its illegal demands, the federal government has taken a number of actions over the course of the past week. Even though some administration members have claimed that the April 11 letter was sent in error, other statements and actions suggest otherwise. In addition to the initial freeze of $2.2 billion in funding, the government has considered taking steps to freeze an additional $1 billion in grants, initiated numerous investigations of Harvard's operations, threatened the education of international students, and announced that it is considering a revocation of Harvard's 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status—all of which would impose unprecedented and improper control over the University. Patients, students, faculty, staff, researchers, and the global standing of American higher education are directly affected by these actions.
