Ugh-- this is terrible for so many reasons. Two on mind right now: 1) PhD-granting institutions can't function without PhD students. 2) Applicants pay a lot to apply! This disproportionately affects lower-means folks. Places that reduce or stop PhD admissions should refund application fees.

This is about the fifth major university who announced reductions in PhD admissions this week in response to federal research cuts.
Absolutely awful for students who are trying to get into grad school right now.
