US EditionFunding cuts, lawsuits, foreign students: The latest on Trump’s war with Harvard University
- On Wednesday, President Donald Trump signed a proclamation imposing a six-month ban on foreign students entering the U.S. To study at Harvard University.
- The proclamation followed the Department of Homeland Security's effort to revoke Harvard's certification to enroll international students, which Harvard challenged in court.
- A federal judge granted a temporary restraining order blocking the ban, noting that international students make up 27% of Harvard’s population and indicated a forthcoming permanent injunction.
- Trump justified the action citing national security and campus antisemitism, while a Harvard spokesperson called it an illegal retaliatory step violating First Amendment rights.
- Experts advise Canadian students to consider schools in Canada or abroad to avoid uncertainty but say the ban should not deter those passionate about studying in the U.S.
