Trump’s latest move on Harvard is likely illegal but certainly stupid. 
US Bans Harvard From Enrolling Foreigners, Forcing Transfers
Bloomberg reports US Bans Harvard From Enrolling Foreigners, Forcing Transfers
The US revoked Harvard’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification, meaning foreign students can no longer attend the university. Existing international students must transfer or lose their legal status, the Department of Homeland Security said Thursday.
The blockade on international student enrollment will compound the financial pressures for Harvard. The Trump administration has frozen more than $2.6 billion of Harvard’s funding and cut off future grants in an increasingly contentious standoff over the school’s handling of alleged antisemitism on campus and government demands for more oversight.
Trump has also called for the institution to lose its tax-exempt status, a move that the Cambridge, Massachusetts-based school has cautioned would have “grave consequences for the future of higher education in America.”
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem in April demanded Harvard submit records of any violent or illegal activity by foreign students by April 30 or immediately lose certification under the federal government’s student visa program. At Harvard almost 6,800 students – 27% of the entire student body — come from other countries, up from 19.6% in 2006, according to the university’s data.
Question of the Day
Q: Why does it make any sense at all to stop 6,000 enormously talented people who want to come to the United States to study, from having that opportunity?
A: This is vicious. It is illegal. It is unwise. And it is very damaging.
Q&A by Larry Summers. I agree on all counts.
Letter to Harvard
The Department of Homeland Security issued this notice on Harvard: Harvard University Loses Student and Exchange Visitor Program Certification for Pro-Terrorist Conduct
WASHINGTON – Today, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem ordered DHS to terminate the Harvard University’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification.
This means Harvard can no longer enroll foreign students and existing foreign students must transfer or lose their legal status.
Harvard’s leadership has created an unsafe campus environment by permitting anti-American, pro-terrorist agitators to harass and physically assault individuals, including many Jewish students, and otherwise obstruct its once-venerable learning environment. Many of these agitators are foreign students. Harvard’s leadership further facilitated, and engaged in coordinated activity with the CCP, including hosting and training members of a CCP paramilitary group complicit in the Uyghur genocide.
“This administration is holding Harvard accountable for fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus,” said Secretary Noem. “It is a privilege, not a right, for universities to enroll foreign students and benefit from their higher tuition payments to help pad their multibillion-dollar endowments. Harvard had plenty of opportunity to do the right thing. It refused. They have lost their Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification as a result of their failure to adhere to the law. Let this serve as a warning to all universities and academic institutions across the country.”
…
Noem cites no law, regulation, or policy for her actions.
Appearing on Fox News, Noem said the administration is considering blocking international enrollment at other universities.
“This should be a warning to every other university to get your act together,” said Noem.
Trump is holding 6,800 innocent kids in his stupid power play with Harvard.
Returning to Bloomberg
In addition to Harvard itself, a ban on international enrollment also threatens to have sweeping implications for the broader Massachusetts economy and a regional ecosystem that thrives off the university’s existence.
International students don’t just pay tuition to Harvard; they also spend money on restaurants and other activities and many of them stay in the area to work at the state’s prestigious hospitals, research institutions and biotechnology companies.
This action continues the Trump Administration’s assault on free speech and university autonomy, said Robert Shireman, a former deputy undersecretary of education in the Obama administration, who’s now a senior fellow at the Century Foundation.
“International scholars bring enormous benefits to America,” Shireman said. “This is a malicious attempt to chill the exchange of ideas, instead imposing centralized control of scientific and historical study.”
Services Surplus
The US runs a goods trade deficit, but a services surplus with most of the world.
Higher education is a big part of the US services surplus. US students get scholarships and financial aid. Foreign students pay the full sticker price.
The US should welcome the best and brightest minds in the world to study here.
Instead, Trump threatens to kick them out. In doing so, he is single-handedly destroying America’s research base.
Why?
Harvard bruised Trump’s fragile ego by not kissing his ass.
Please recall this all started in April when The Letter to Harvard Setting Off Trump Confrontation Was a Mistake
Oops, the letter was a mistake.
I expect the courts to quickly squash this obvious idiocy. Trump has truly lost it … again.
Trump is taking a US international competitive advantage and pissing on it to satisfy a personal vendetta against Harvard that started with a letter that was not supposed to be sent.
It’s sickening.
Mish ; Your blinded by you’re own bias. Our Colleges cannot continue doing the same radical liberal causes. They suck off my tax dollars , and we allow foreigners to come here protesting hate etc. Tax these Colleges Endowments to change the bad behavior. No more Fed money to support this crap
no more state money to state universities. waste of my taxes.
Is it possible that “Trump Stupidly….” is redundant?
There is no right to a Student Visa.
There is no right to grant money.
There is no right to govt Student Loan guarantees.
End all of these arrangements with any institution that practices overt Racism or Sexism ie DEI programs and anti-Title IX policies which allow males to obtain benefits intended for women by Title IX ie Scholarships, Sports Competition, not to mention the common sense policy of female only space like bathrooms and locker rooms.
trump said = SUPPRESS FREE SPEECH AGAINST Zionist REGIME IN Israel= by foreign students in Harvard!
if any person IN HARVARD terrifies any jew on campus physically , he must be arrested and possibly thrown out from country.
dont have problem w/, as long as EXISTS DUE PROCESS
If Hollywood makes a movie about this era, it will be called The Revenge of the Unwashed.
For decades the unwashed have watched their jobs shipped offshore, replaced by foreign workers, and train their replacements while the Harvard types cooked up esoteric economic theories saying how good it was for them.
I think we can all agree that Noem has an IQ less than 50. She should stick to what she does best – killing innocent animals for pleasure.
As i recall, she didn’t lock down during Covid. She was smarter than all who did.
no need to lock down in rural areas. amerika should have just made fat folks lock down
Smart? I was in NYC in 2020. Two people close to me died. Yes, they were older. A neighbor in his 60s died. Two people I knew in their 20s died. Three friends got long COVID. One got so sick in March 2020, he thought he was going to die. I have no proof, but I think that is how he developed aggressive kidney cancer two years later.
Trump made a perfectly legal and fair request to Harvard – stop discriminating on the basis of race, and in particular, stop discriminating against Jews. Harvard said no way. So here they are.
lie! lie! lie!
trump said = SUPPRESS FREE SPEECH AGAINST Zionist REGIME IN Israel= by foreign students in Harvard!
you should Google 1st amendment.

Harvard’s “White Man Last” policy is outrageous. DOGE, clean that up!
I’m an old guy from third world country.
Whatever it is – Thanks Trump, you stop the brain drain from our countries even if it
is not reverse brain drain.
Whether he’s doing it intentionally or not, probably not, every time he gets the courts to rule against one of his “popular” executive orders he uses it to weaken support for judges and consolidate power with DJT.
FAFO Harvard didn’t play ball so they lost a privilege. Now they can educate more promising American students:
WASHINGTON – Today, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem ordered DHS to terminate the Harvard University’s Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification.
This means Harvard can no longer enroll foreign students and existing foreign students must transfer or lose their legal status.
SEVP stands for the Student and Exchange Visitor Program. It’s a program within U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), managed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), that oversees and manages foreign students and exchange visitors in the United States. SEVP is also responsible for the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS), a database that tracks this information.
Purpose: SEVP’s main function is to ensure that international students and exchange visitors are complying with U.S. immigration laws and regulations.
Seems like a slam dunk to me.
While they are not eligible for government benefits like Pell grants, they do get scholarships from Harvard.

Got exit strategy?
The Great Taking doesn’t allow for an exit strategy. Too much counter party risk. JP Morgan laid claim to the account holders money at MF Global. The GM bond holders got screwed. Stocks people think they own are in Street Name. It’s the bank’s money, once deposited. The account holder has no more than a claim. Something is up, if gold is going from a tier 3 asset to tier 1 and central banks are buying up supply.
This is a fun thread today. God King Trump vs. the evil minions of Harvard the Great Satan!
we should stop all taxpayer funding of higher ed. all state universities shuttered. also, k to 12 is really a luxury. let the middlebrows and lumpenproles work
You might be jesting but what you say is actually correct. Taxpayers should not be paying for any educational institution including schools. Pay for your own kids, or if you want you can give money to fund scholarships.
It’s unjust that home schoolers make sacrifices for their own kids and are then forced to pay for government schools that employ mostly leftist dullards teaching DEI.
Also most people don’t realise that it’s inherently racist to force taxpayers to pay for others when those taxpayers might not have children in the country. Being n a mixed race marriage I have plenty of relatives back in Africa that I’ve helped with school expenses. Hard to do that properly when the money I have available has already had a chunk taken to school well off white kids.
“If you think education is expensive, try ignorance”. I have childless friends who whine about having to pay taxes for schools. Of course, it’s my children, raised at tremendous expense to myself, that will pay for their social security. So far, none of them has offered to write me a check for ensuring their financial security in their doddering old age.
Another thing: nearly all the $$ going to colleges from the federal government is for funding research. A few cents go to DEI-related education stuff, but aside from that education is funded by state taxes (for state colleges) and tuition. The research $$ goes for stuff like cures for cancer, fiber optics invention (internet) etc etc, that corporations simply would never fund: they need to make money.
So, when Trump talks about eliminating federal money for colleges, he’s not talking about cutting education subsidies, he’s talking about research dollars, which has made US higher education the wonder of the world and has paid back taxpayers a hundred times over.
Except SS is supposed to be a trust fund where your friend will be currently paying into and will be available when they retire. Problem is that both sides have been using that money so it isn’t really there.
Government needs to reduced to a much smaller size doing a few tasks. Protect the border (military, ICE), run the legal system, run the embassies, set standards and manage common property such as roads, parks,, waterways, the air and oceans.
Getting the government involved in providing schools, hospitals, insurance and loans is what has lead to big government and the debt/deficit mess.
i was following the logic. i think it is stupid really. if you don’t know the reason for the public schools i suggest a little deep dive. it’s quite interesting. the real story. but alas we can really go full commie and make all the elites work the fields. i know chinese doctors who were forced to do that. very stupid.
It’s all about owning the libs.
No. The lowbrow conservative media personalities spin it that way and unsophisticated conservatives (which is not all of them) see it that way. The truth is it’s about following the orders of radical Zionists who cannot brook any criticism of Israel. They argue that student critics of Israel have been inciting violence but have presented zero evidence of that claim. They say that Jewish students feel unsafe but ignore that many of the student protestors have been Jewish. Israel has been indiscriminately killing Palestinians and starving them and the response in the US has been to talk about the supposed rise of antisemitism. You could not make this shit up. It’s like Norm Macdonald’s joke that his biggest fear is that ISIS would kill millions of Americans with a dirty bomb – because the blowback against innocent Muslims would be terrible.
fuck zionism. they started as total terrorists and now have moved into being nazis. ironic as hell. i love jews. hate zionists. as do many of my hasidic jew neighbors agree here in brooklyn.
You said: “They argue that student critics of Israel have been inciting violence but have presented zero evidence of that claim.” –
I guess you missed the two murders in WA DC this week at a Jewish function by a guy yelling “free Palestine?” The murders were congratulated by Hamas and other terrorist groups.
That doesn’t mean student protesters are responsible.
The shooter was born in the USA to a father that fought for the USA in Iraq. He’s a 31-year-old that got his English degree from the University of Illinois. It’s not the fault of foreign students that an American citizen, born in the USA and raised by an American “war hero”, committed a double homicide.
The father actually killed more innocent people than the son, as hundreds of thousands of Iraqis, mostly civilians, were killed in the American wars conducted there at the urging of Benjamin Netanyahu, the same Netanyahu that sponsored Hamas for decades.

bingo. nothing more. and headlines
(Freedom is just another word for nothing left to lose) Well maybe Harvard can moved to Iran , to Have the Freedom to Educate the World’s youth!
Nothing screams socialism like having the government censor a private university and tell them who they can enroll. Always the victims.
Yeah, the visas which foreign students receive are not Harvard’s to give. Goes through the State Department
And apparently the State Department does the bidding of the Israel lobby. It’s fucking embarrassing. Every American who doesn’t have dual citizenship should be ashamed at American subservience to a foreign country.
Funny because Biden’s cabinet was the most Jewish ever. Jewish politics is not a monolith. Inside of Israel, its savagely divided. Jews here who are Zionist and not Zionist, including the monied interests and Wall Street oligarchs. Or the orthodox Jews who voted overwhelmingly for Trump.
Why bring up that old coot Biden? I didn’t vote for him.
Biden did the bidding of his overlords too. It’s why the Yemenis were getting bombed during his presidency too.

There is no right to a Student Visa, or any visa for that matter.
If this stands, it will pretty much ruin higher education in America. But maybe that’s the goal after all. Who needs higher education given that Trump knows it all?
Add to this Trump’s unpredictable, erratic, and illegal decisions, and you get a feeling for how it feels like to live in places like Russia, Iran, and North Korea. And the MAGA crowd thinks this is great!
If you lived in any of said places a black van would have whisked you away long ago. Assuming your an actual person.

Do you think the $700 million went to pay for people to get their MD degrees? No, it’s for research. Cures for cancer and other diseases we’ll all get if we live long enough. Neither corporations nor the government itself, except for a few agencies like NASA and NIH, are set up for or capable of doing the scientific research which has immeasurably improved the lives of everyone on this planet, more so for Americans than anyone else.
YOU are mistaken—most successful research springs from privately sponsored work not government grants. Grants include pay for the researchers institutions materials etc. Government grants must be of interest to the government committees that award the grants as well. Like Climate Change–to get a grant in this area guess what you must support–
I get it. You have a seething hatred of Trump that consumes every fiber of your body and soul, and like Vegans and Cross Fitters, you live to spread your sentiments onto everyone you encounter. It’s fine for someone to have opinions. It’s not fine to broadcast them when uninvited. I used to really enjoy your work. I hope one day that you choose to go back to that.

The “safe and effective” narrative collapsed on camera during an explosive Senate hearing on COVID-19 vaccine injuries Wednesday afternoon exposing how the government deliberately hid vaccine harms from the public..

Harvard’s endowment is $53bn. The so called beacon of education is an oligarch. Poor Harvard.
Your rampant anti-intellectualism is wishing ill on America’s ability to compete on the global stage. Why do we want to weaken our education system while offering a golden opportunity to all non-American universities? Do you really hate people who are not Americans that much?
Harvard is a shit show. Tear down false idols. You have fallen prey to marketing and bullshit. Which itself is an indictment of so called higher education.
don’t like harvard, don’t apply.
Is Harvard a prestigious institution, is that what you would like to protect? Its prestige as a common good? It might interest you to know that the etymology of the word “prestige” literally means a magic trick or illusion. Following from this, Harvard is a hotbed of jugglers and clowns. Which is perfectly apt.
Intellectualism????
ROFLMAO!!!!

Intellectualism! That’s real funny!
DEMOCRACY TRULY WORKS PERFECTLY. Trump is committing national sucide. From tariff wars to cutting off our huge comparative advantage like universities to cutting off medical care which will backfire and bankrupt rural county hospitals…………DEMOCRACY WORKS. AMERIKANS HAVE BEEN COMMITTING SUICIDE FOR DECADES. FIGURATIVELY AND METAPHORICALLY.
when you use phrases like “Amerikans” it belies your political beliefs and shows a knack for jingoism.

Vote stupid, we become stupid
It’s like Mish does not understand how to fight a war. This is a significant hit to all liberal northeast universities. Even if ruled unconstitutional eventually by some court. The Federal government has massive power and sway. We all know you do not fight the Federal Reserve when investing and Harvard is learning that Trump populism is this generation’s pendulum swing
Why is Trump trying to destroy the USA from within? As if the greatest research institution in US history is somehow a cancer. That’s the dumbest idea.
They’re not bright people, Rando. I think we all know this, including themselves, which is why they’re so angry about something like Harvard!
A Harvard degree is great for social networking in the professions. Meanwhile, the social engineers have taken extreme measures of fictionalizing even biological realities, foisting ill conceived notions of Marxism, which by the way were ill conceived by Marx himself. The superficiality of what wokeness presents would deeply disturb old Karl. $700M in medical research can get better results at better universities.Etc.
Sounds lovely – we now condone a government crushing organisations because of a personal dislike, not a broken law. The USA is rapidly declining into lawlessness. And a lot of people are cheering it on because they like who is impacted by this lawlessness and abuse of power.
I’m amazed at the stupidity and short sightedness of removing Harvard’s access to international students. Having the world’s best universities is a privilege (not a right) of the United States, and the administration is squandering that.
Having global elites at elite is also a mechanism to brainwash them into worshipping America. From a purely imperialistic perspective, it is advantageous for the US to educate global elites. Now I’m sure some of these will now just send their kids to Duke, Yale, etc, but this will likely encourage some of them to instead go to Nanjing or Heidelberg.
This also applies to currently enrolled students, it’s cruel and will trash the reputation of the entire American university system. Students that are already here should be permitted to finish their degrees.
I’ll state that I’m an academic with a poor impression of Harvard as an institution who in the abstract supports the federal government incentivizing reforms. But that’s not what this. I believe and assume that this is almost certainly due to pressure from Zionist mega donors. Bill Ackman for example has been regularly blasting Harvard and Columbia on his Twitter feed.

didn’t you read the comment,its a dying empire no one wants to be here or wants a visa to get an education here. Why is Harvard fighting over non-existent students who are fleeing a dying empire? of so his line of reasoning goes.
I admit I cannot understand how the mentallly ill think, so I may have misinterpreted simple hysteria into an actual logical thought train.
suggest you interrogate the original poster to understand. I was positing that in foreign lands they fight for the honor and prividedge of an American college degree. And pay a premium to do so…

If you have some spare time, you should try to get acquainted with facts. Foreign students are almost always paying full tuition and they are cross-subsidizing the American students. Besides that, the average foreign student is brighter than the average American student, and that’s why Harvard wants them.
Last time I checked foreign students tuition did absolutely nothing to subsidize American students. Have you looked at the cost curve of tuition in the last 3 decades ? Why exactly does Harvard receive 2.2 billion from the US government ? F that. These folks are a bunch of Anti-Semites. I say, pull it all.
they are all anti Zionists. it is diff.
you should read books , or travel outside local county
or find who who were founders of Israel, or last name of netanyahu! for example
or golda meir
israel was founded by violent terrorists. ask the british about hotel bombings.
i dont have problems some stupid chip-and-fish died!
point is . those were not historical jews .
those were eastern Europe (mostly Russian empire ) people
before ww1 80% of ‘jews’ lived in Russian empire.!
Poor argument. Foreigners subsidize US students by paying full tuition, which US students, on average, do not. Has nothing to do with the cost curve (which rising tuition is, again, also paid by the foreigners).
Harvard receives lots of $$ from the US gov mostly for research. Want to clean up wasteful grants? Sure. Agreed. Is Harvard not doing enough to protect Jewish students? Yes, there are civil remedies available to make sure that legitimate protests don’t infringe on students’ rights, including Jewish students. We should use those remedies.
But to tell the world’s brightest lights to go study elsewhere is national suicide. Conversely, we should staple a green card to every engineering/medical (and many other) diplomas awarded in the US. Google how many US tech CEO’s were born elsewhere. Our dynamism is built on openness to creativity and innovation. We Americans don’t hold a monopoly on that. Trumps move is classic ‘baby/bathwater’ idiocy.
I agree with what you are saying. Problem is Harvard has being paying lip service to upholding the law to protect Jewish students. So Trump is using leverage and a sledge hammer to get them to hand over the videos and other evidence of the protests, harassment and assaults. Note that the time given for Harvard to comply is the same as the time given for international students to transfer to another university. So if Harvard falls in line then odds are the transfer requirements will be dropped.
Cheap student loans were a scam to move tuition up, do your homework.
They pay full boat tuition. Its a biz racket. Prep schools and universities across the country.
tell the maga morons that colleges are big business. watch their dumbfuck heads explode. defund tax dollars to state u and K through 12. let them eat cake. trump cake and trump steaks.
