Judge blocks Trump ban on Harvard foreign student enrollment DW 05/23/2025
Briefly

A federal judge in Boston suspended the Trump administration's move to revoke Harvard University's certification for enrolling international students. Harvard claimed this action was unconstitutional and could severely impact over 7,000 students. The lawsuit stemmed from the government's decision to rescind the school's Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification. Harvard argued that this was retaliation against its rejection of government influence over its governance and ideology, especially after accusations of antisemitism and 'woke' values directed at the university by President Trump.
"The ruling from the Boston federal judge prevents the Trump administration from revoking Harvard's certification that allows enrollment of international students, highlighting constitutional concerns."
"Harvard called the government's actions a 'blatant violation' of the US Constitution, emphasizing that the ban could devastate their international student body."
