The Trump administration has barred Harvard University from enrolling international students, with thousands of existing students now ordered to transfer or be ejected from the U.S.
The Ivy League school enrolls almost 6,800 foreign students from around the world at its campus—more than a quarter of its entire student body—who now face a panicked scramble to find another college to transfer to.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced the move on Thursday, claiming that Harvard had allowed "anti-American, pro-terrorist agitators" to assault Jewish students and had collaborated with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus.
The decision comes as a judge in California blocked the Trump administration from terminating the legal status of international students across the U.S. until a legal battle over previous terminations is resolved.
Again, this is Harvard shouting "How dare you threaten us to not persecute our Jewish faculty and students!"
