""We must fight against antisemitism, but we equally need to protect our rights, including our right to free speech, and neither goal should nor needs to be sacrificed on the altar of the other.""
""Harvard sued the Trump administration in April after the federal government froze $2.2 billion in funding when the Ivy League university rejected demands to enact a far-reaching slate of changes that would have overhauled admissions, governance, hiring and much more.""
""The Trump administration has demanded a $500 million settlement that would force other changes to admissions and discipline policies, similar to agreements made by Ivy League peers Columbia University and Brown University."}],"
Judge Allison Burroughs of the U.S. District Court in Boston found the federal government illegally froze $2.2 billion in Harvard research funding and violated Harvard's First Amendment rights and the U.S. Civil Rights Act. Harvard sued after the government withheld funds when the university declined demands to implement sweeping changes to admissions, governance, and hiring. The judge expressed skepticism that the government adequately proved Harvard failed to address antisemitism and previously blocked efforts to halt Harvard’s ability to host international students. The Trump administration is seeking a $500 million settlement tied to additional policy changes.
