Harvard University has initiated legal action against the Trump administration to reverse a freeze on over $2.2 billion in federal grants. This funding was suspended following the university's refusal to comply with government demands to restrict campus activism and modify admissions policies. The administration also demanded that Harvard audit the diversity of viewpoints among students and faculty and discipline protests more stringently. Harvard's President, Alan Garber, argued in the lawsuit that the administration's actions jeopardize critical research and lack justification in relation to antisemitism concerns.
