Harvard joins colleges moving to self-fund some research to offset federal funding cuts
Briefly

Amid a federal funding freeze instigated by the Trump administration, Harvard University is allocating $250 million of its own funds to support critical research efforts. The funding cut, amounting to over $2.6 billion, has forced Harvard to take drastic measures, leading President Alan Garber to announce potential "difficult decisions and sacrifices" in the future. As the university strives to maintain operations, it stands out for being the first institution to challenge the administration's demands openly, facing consequences such as ineligibility for new federal research grants until disputes are resolved.
