The Trump administration has exerted substantial pressure on Harvard, withholding billions in federal funding and restricting its ability to draw overseas students. The administration has criticized the university for not effectively combating antisemitism. Recent actions by Harvard, including the removal of websites for centers serving minority and LGBTQ students, signal a response to this pressure. This reflects a broader trend where prestigious institutions, including Biglaw firms, are adjusting their public stances to negotiate compliance with the administration, to avoid jeopardizing their accreditation status.
