Trump administration says Harvard will receive no new grants until it meets demands

Harvard University will receive no new federal grants until it meets a series of demands from President Donald Trump's administration, the Education Department announced Monday.

On July 8, 2020, the Trump administration announced that it would block Harvard University and other elite colleges from receiving federal funds through the CARES Act, due to their large endowments and the perceived lack of need for such funds. This decision came after Harvard had already received $8.6 million from the Act, prompting the Department of Education to demand the return of these funds. The move was part of a broader effort to redirect emergency financial aid to institutions more in need, amidst the economic challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Critics argued that this action was politically motivated, especially given the timing and the ongoing legal battle between Harvard and the administration over a separate issue concerning international student visas.
