The Trump administration on Wednesday challenged Harvard University’s accredited status due to accusations that the school violated federal civil rights laws in its handling of antisemitism on campus. 

The Departments of Education and Health and Human Services notified the New England commission controlling Harvard’s accreditation that the Ivy League Institution “may fail to meet the standards for accreditation” due to federal findings that the school violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits recipients of government funding from discriminating on the basis of race, color, or national origin.
