The Trump administration informed Harvard University on Monday that it will not be eligible for research grants from the federal government for the foreseeable future.
The move raises the stakes in President Donald Trump’s war against Harvard University. In recent weeks, the president and Department of Education Secretary Linda McMahon have frozen Harvard’s more than $2 billion in current federal funding and opened an investigation into alleged antisemitism and viewpoint discrimination taking place on its campus following the Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attacks.
The president has additionally floated revoking the university’s tax-exempt status but has yet to take significant steps toward that aim.
