A federal judge on Wednesday gave Harvard University a landmark victory in its fight against the Trump administration, siding with the Ivy League school in its effort to restore more than $2 billion in federal funding for research frozen by the White House.
The decision from US District Judge Allison Burroughs rejects the administration’s argument that it was targeting the university due to antisemitism on the school’s campus.
“A review of the administrative record makes it difficult to conclude anything other than that defendants used antisemitism as a smokescreen for a targeted, ideologically-motivated assault on this country’s premier universities,” wrote Burroughs, an appointee of former President Barack Obama.
Yeah because Harvard needs 2 billion dollars. How about instead of stealing from the rich to give to the rich, you loop the poor into it somewhere?
Can you do Harvard level research? There’s a reason that money was going where it was going, and it wasn’t just to pay tuition for rich kids.
I for one do not want all research privatized so that corporations can ransom their useful findings and skew results for their own benefit.
Yes, people capable of doing the research are fairly common.
Problem is most of the cash is horded.
You typed your dumbass comment on a device that exists because of Harvard research.
