Trump's attack on Harvard was never just about academia - it was a test run for crushing dissent everywhere. If he can dictate what universities teach, he can silence the press, rig the courts, and dismantle democracy itself.

NECESSARY! Higher Education MUST develop COLLECTIVE RESISTANCE! Trump wants to kill the First Amendment! The ugly irony: Trump said Harvard "should lose its Tax Exempt Status and be Taxed as a Political Entity" ...uh.. if it does not submit to his demands to make Harvard his "political entity."

Interesting. Would have thought that conservative bastion that it is, it would have held back.

It’s time for a class action against the administration by the universities

I think the point being missed with focus on school responses: exactly which federal spigots to colleges will be left open? NONE. The plan is NO Federal spending. Once the schools recognize this maybe they can better organize themselves into a resistance…

Now we're talking.

Sure weren't waiting for the alumnus senator in Missouri to make a stand.

Must be a busy spot, fighting for the right to exist.

Gen X really hasn't had a whole lot of monumental challenges in their time.

Perhaps they'll come through here and be remembered.

Wow. I did not expect to see this from my "viewpoint diversity" loving alma mater. That was a pleasant surprise!

“The Supreme Court recognized this years ago when it articulated the essential freedoms of universities under the First Amendment as the ability to determine who gets to teach, what is taught, how it is taught, and who is admitted to study.”

Yes, I will write them a letter.

No science , no progression

Fitting that the administration is launching a war against "Veritas"—Latin for “truth”—the very word emblazoned on Harvard’s seal.

Thank you Stanford.

They're figuring out solidarity is the only way. Better late than never.

Good.

More colleges showing they’re antisemitic

roxanadaneshjou.bsky.social•45 days ago

I stand strongly against anti-semitism and if you read the Harvard president’s comments, so do they. The federal government has no place taking over universities.
