Harvard says Trump lawsuit 'another retaliatory action' over its refusal to let gov't control school

Harvard University has condemned a lawsuit filed by the Trump administration over its treatment of Jewish students, calling it 'another pretextual and retaliatory action' tied to the school’s refusal to allow government control of the institution.

In a statement, Harvard said it remains committed to ensuring that Jewish and Israeli members of its community are welcomed, respected, and able to thrive on campus. The university rejected allegations of 'deliberate indifference,' arguing that its actions demonstrate the opposite.

Harvard said it will defend itself against the lawsuit, framing the legal challenge as part of a broader dispute over the university’s independence and governance.
