The Trump administration plans to audit Harvard University's federal contracts totaling $255.6 million amid accusations of failing to address anti-Semitism on campus. This move follows similar actions against Columbia University, which faced contract revocations due to its handling of pro-Palestinian demonstrations. The scrutiny has raised concerns among critics who view it as an effort to silence pro-Palestinian voices in higher education, highlighting an ongoing clash between free inquiry and perceived anti-Semitic rhetoric within elite academic institutions.
"Harvard's failure to protect students on campus from anti-Semitic discrimination while promoting divisive ideologies over free inquiry has put its reputation in serious jeopardy."
"The announcement follows similar actions taken against another private Ivy League campus, Columbia University, which saw millions in contracts revoked."
