US Homeland Security Department threatens to revoke Harvard's ability to enrol foreign students
NEW YORK/WASHINGTON: (Apr 17) The US Department of Homeland Security has threatened to revoke Harvard University's ability to enrol foreign students if it failed to provide by April 30 records on its international student visa holders' "illegal and violent" activities.
It also cancelled grants totalling more than USD 2.7 million to Harvard University.
The latest action from the Trump administration against Harvard comes on the heels of a USD 2.2 billion federal funding freeze because the university rejected a list of demands. The administration also proposed the revocation of the university's tax-exempt status over its radical ideology.
