The Ivy League resistance is just getting started
From Politico: “Leaders who once helmed the nation’s most prestigious universities are homing in on a message for their successors: resist, defend and litigate…Since Trump started his second term, he has punished elite universities for what his administration says is inadequate action on campus antisemitism and weaponizing diversity initiatives. His administration cut more than $2 billion in federal funding to Harvard University and at least $400 million to Columbia University. Columbia has agreed to place its Middle Eastern, South Asian and African Studies Departments and the Center for Palestine Studies under the authority of a new senior vice provost, among other concessions, in an effort to restore their funding.”
