Trump's Harvard visa threat could wipe out several of the school's sports teams
Briefly

A recent decision by the Trump administration could significantly impact Harvard University's athletic programs by revoking its ability to enroll international students. Many of its successful sports teams, such as crew, hockey, squash, soccer, and golf, include a notable percentage of international athletes, which could result in diminished rosters. This action is linked to claims of antisemitism on campus, with the Department of Homeland Security stating that the campus environment is unsafe for Jewish students. Harvard strongly opposes this decision and plans to assist affected students while challenging the legality of the government's actions.
Harvard's ability to enroll international students was revoked, impacting a significant portion of its athletic program, particularly among teams heavily reliant on international athletes.
The Department of Homeland Security's decision is framed as a response to allegations of insufficient protection from antisemitism, with broad consequences for the school's international student population.
