On the 19th local time, the U.S. Department of Education successively took two measures against Harvard University: First, it issued a "refusal of access letter" to Harvard University because it continued to fail to provide enrollment data; Second, for the sake of financial responsibility, Harvard University was included in the list of strengthened cash monitoring.
The U.S. Department of Education said that as a member of the federal student funding agency, Harvard University must first use its own funds to pay federal student aid, which can then be withdrawn from the Department of Education.
Harvard receives part of frozen research funding
According to Bloomberg, Harvard University said it has received $46 million in federal research funding, which is part of the $2 billion research funding previously frozen by the Trump administration over allegations that the university failed to adequately curb anti-Semitism on campus.
Earlier this month, a federal judge ruled that the U.S. government’s freezing of funds was unlawful and Harvard won the court case. The U.S. Department of Health and Public Services subsequently resumed part of the allocation. But the Trump administration has said it will appeal.
