  • On Monday evening, Harvard University filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration in a Massachusetts federal court concerning the suspension of $2.2 billion in federal funding.
  • The lawsuit followed government demands issued in April to reform Harvard's policies on antisemitism, which the university rejected as a federal takeover.
  • The administration halted more than $1 billion in NIH grants and other multi-year contracts, accusing Harvard of entitlement toward federal funds tied to policy compliance.

  • The action threatens ongoing research and academic freedom at Harvard while signaling deeper tensions over federal funding conditions in higher education.
