WASHINGTON – The Trump administration has canceled another $450 million in grants to Harvard University, two weeks after the Ivy League school released a scathing internal review about antisemitism on its campus.
The move ramps up the considerable pressure on one of the nation's most revered colleges, which has been the target of a barrage of White House threats and investigations, including reviews of its tax-exempt status and compliance with regulations that determine its ability to enroll international students.
In April, a multiagency federal task force paused roughly $2.2 billion in funding for Harvard. The Trump administration still has not clarified exactly how that pause has been implemented and which research grants are affected. On May 5, Education Secretary Linda McMahon escalated the fight and told Harvard's Jewish president, Alan Garber, that the school would no longer be eligible to receive any new federally supported research grants.
In an initial announcement, the administration said the grants come from eight agencies. The federal Education Department did not immediately respond to questions about which new funding has been terminated. Harvard officials also did not immediately respond to an inquiry.
