The University of Columbia stated that it was having “good faith” interaction with the administration of US President Donald Trump, to regain federal money, Harvard rejected the demands of administration to audit his students and faculty, with other overhaul, to audit the “approach variety” of his students and faculty.
The interim president of Columbia, Claire Shipman, on Monday night said that the private New York School would not occupy his commitment to academic freedom during a conversation with the New York School Administration.
Starting with Colombia, the Trump administration has threatened universities across the country to deal with anti -Palestinian protests, which are rooted campuses on Gaza after the 2023 Hamas -led attacks and subsequent Israeli attacks inside Israel last year.
The Trump administration has stated that antisementism erupted amid protests. The protesters say their criticism of Israel and American foreign policy is wrongly confused with antisementism.
In a Monday letter, Harvard President Alan Garber dismissed the demands of the Trump administration that the Harvard ends the diversity efforts and takes other steps to protect funding as “precious from the claims of power, the law”, which violated the school’s constitutional free speech rights and civil rights.
He has written that threatened money has supported medical, engineering and other scientific research, which has given birth to those innovations that have “made countless people in our country and around the world.”
Garber, a few hours after the issuance of his letter, asked the Joint Task Force of the Trump Administration to deal with the anti-Jewish, that it was the country’s oldest and richest university, Harvard, a contract and grant, which was priced more than $ 2 billion, out of a total of $ 9 billion.
Later on Monday, a trustee Shipman from Columbia said that Columbia would be seen as “Good Faith discussion” and “creative dialogue” with the Antismitism Task Force of the US Department of Justice, which began with the government’s announcement in early March that it was ending the Colombia grant and $ 400 million contracts.
Shipman wrote, “Those discussions have not ended, and we have not reached any agreement with the government at this point.” He has written that the Trump administration has demanded universities, addressing the shared regime and addressing the “approach diversity”, “not subject to the conversation.”
He wrote, “We will reject any agreement in which the government teaches what we teach, research, or what we rented,” he wrote.
He also wrote that in Massachusetts, Harvard rejected the demands by the government that “a lot of heart strike of the respected mission of that university.”
Shipman did not address the claim by Harvard and some Columbia professors, who are sueing the Trump administration through their labor associations, that the government’s functions are illegal.
Under the title VI of the Civil Rights Act, which prevents discrimination by recipients of federal funding based on race or national origin, federal funds can be eliminated only after a long investigation and hearing process, which has not happened in Colombia.
One of the most famous alumni of Columbia, former US President Barack Obama, “reacted to Ham-Hand-Handed attempt to prevent academic freedom.”
“Let’s expect other institutions follow the suit,” Obama, a Democrat, wrote in Monday night’s statement.
Trump, a Republican, said in a social media post on Tuesday that he was looking to end the tax-free situation of the hard, if he inspires “political, ideological and terrorist and ‘disease support/support/support” “?
The deadlock between the Trump administration and universities comes when it faces the challenges of the court for its immigration policies, and is trying to stop the pushback of the state’s lawyers to stop the pushback of the pushback of government employees and the trillion dollar suspension in federal grants, loans and financial assistance.
Later on Tuesday, one of the immigration matters, which has raised questions about whether the administration would respect judges and the constitutional order can come as a chief because American District Judge Paula Shinis has considered his next steps that he called Trump’s failure, who calls an individual who used to make an alvodor’s attempts to illegally defraud the attempts to make him update. Is.
The US Supreme Court upheld an order from Xinis last week that the administration provided a return to Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s withdrawal from Al Salvador, where he was being kept in a high security jail. The Trump administration has said that it is powerless to bring back Abrego Garcia.
