According to Homeland Security, an organization may turn over records of “illegal and violent activities” committed by holders of student visas for foreign students.
The Department of Homeland Security issued a severe warning to Harvard University on Wednesday in response to rising conflicts, putting pressure on the institution’s ability to accept foreign students for its alleged antisemitism.
By April 30th, Harvard must provide the national government with “detailed information” about foreign students ‘ “illegal and harsh activities,” according to Department Secretary Kristi Noem in a letter.
Harvard’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program documentation may be voided if it is not done, Noem said.
Noem stated in a news release that Harvard’s “bending the hip” to antisemitism, which is motivated by its cowardly leadership, causes a wave of fundamentalist riots and threatens our country’s protection. America demands more from the institutions that are funded by the government.
The office even canceled$ 2.7 million in college grants, according to The Harvard Crimson.
The$ 1.9 million Blue Campaign Program Evaluation and Violence Advisement grant, which supported studies on efforts to combat mass murder and human trafficking elimination, is one of the canceled offers. In the press release, the DHS stated that the offer “funded Harvard’s open heath propaganda.”
The$ 800,000 Implementation Science for Targeted Violence Prevention award was the other award that was canceled because it was alleged that a shockingly biased review compared conservatives to far-right dissidents.
Sarah E. KennedyO’Reilly, a spokesperson for Harvard, stated in a speech that the school is aware of the notice but continues to support its claim that it” will never give up its independence or abandon its constitutional rights.”
We anticipate that any national action taken against a member of our community will be based on solid evidence, adhere to proven legal standards, and adhere to the rights that are guaranteed to all people, according to KennedyO’Reilly.
The Trump administration froze$ 2.2 billion in funding to the Ivy League university for refusing to handle racism, according to The College Fix. The news came just a few days after that.
President Donald Trump also made a suggestion that the school’s tax exemption could be repealed in a post on Truth Social on Tuesday.
However, even among liberal scientists, these actions have received mixed reactions.
There are better ways to implement reform, according to Jonathan Turley, a laws professor at George Washington University.
The most crucial thing is that those who support the demands of any political party been granted position. By granting this position, he wrote on his weblog on Thursday, “free speech and participatory rights are promoted.”
In the meantime, William Jacobson, a professor of law at Cornell University, told Fox News that accepting tax money comes with responsibility.
According to Jacobson,” You are obligated to adhere to the civil rights laws when you accept national funding as a school.” You are in the decision-making process. It’s a matter of upholding the law, not a problem of free conversation.
Further: The Trump administration freezes$ 2.2 billion to Harvard after the institution objects to needs.
