Harvard has rejected the Trump administration's demands for change, stating that the government is overreaching and violating the university's First Amendment rights. The White House had requested 10 categories of changes, including reducing student and faculty power and reporting 'hostile' students to the federal government. President Trump has been pressuring universities to curb antisemitism and end diversity practices. Over a billion dollars in federal funds have been frozen to multiple universities since Trump took office. Harvard professors have filed a lawsuit, claiming the government is attacking freedom of speech and academic freedom.
