Harvard University found itself at the center of a growing conflict with the Trump Administration, which has steadily escalated over the past several months.
Tensions began early in Trump’s presidency, with campus protests sparked by both domestic policies and international issues. A timeline of key events marks the progression of this situation.
On April 14th, Harvard made headlines by formally rejecting demands from the administration, standing firm on its policies and values. Two days later, on April 16th, the federal government responded by threatening the university’s ability to enroll international students, which are a crucial part of Harvard’s diverse student body. Additionally, over $2.7 million in funding was put at risk.
The conflict reached a new level on April 21st when a lawsuit was filed, marking the latest chapter in this high-profile standoff.
