Yay Alan! You and your team are standing up for us all. Glad you have a backbone when so many others do not.

Harvard made it possible for hundreds of other universities and colleges to stand up too (403 as of this am). The regime is trying to consolidate power by suborning the courts, the Congress, Big Law, and the entire higher ed system, which IS the center of innovation. https://www.aacu.org/newsroom/a-call-for-constructive-engagement?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

Harvard's refusal to compromise is a powerful stand for academic integrity and institutional autonomy. This defiance against Trump’s policies could set a precedent for other institutions to uphold their principles regardless of political pressures. #HigherEd #AcademicFreedom #DefendDemocracy

Bravo Harvard !!!!!

Good. Now if they’d also teach more ethics classes and stop their legacy and admittance via what amounts to bribery programs, we may avoid messes like this to begin with.

Same with all the other ivys.

Funding threat? Harvard has enough funds to give free education to every student for a thousand years and still not run out of money

Well done.

If enough people say “No!” to the Trump administration’s demands and “So what?” when they complain/whine/“throw hissy fits”… we may just save our nation from this idiocracy.

👍 and interesting he mentions the economy first...suggests he is thinking of a defensive coalition that centers around economic activity, maybe big businesses.

Absolutely right! It's not a society's administration, it's a nasty regime!
