US EditionHarvard Students March After Trump Seeks to Cut Remaining Contracts
- On May 27, 2025, hundreds of Harvard students protested at the university in Cambridge, Massachusetts, against the US government's plan to cancel remaining financial contracts worth $100 million.
- The cancellations follow President Donald Trump's attempt to force Harvard to accept oversight after it refused control over curriculum, admissions, and research.
- Harvard, the country's oldest research powerhouse with 27% foreign students, has faced frozen federal grants and revoked accreditation to the Student and Exchange Visitor program.
- During the protest, students held signs declaring "Trump = traitor" and repeatedly called out for the continued inclusion of international students in classrooms, while legal analysts predicted that courts would probably invalidate the executive actions taken by Trump.
- The dispute escalates with a court hearing scheduled for May 29, coinciding with Harvard's commencement, as alumni plan to file a lawsuit on June 9 to challenge the contract cancellations.
