Trump Administration lowers Harvard additional grants of 450 million US dollars

The Trump administration canceled further grants of 450 million US dollars for Harvard University on Tuesday, a new broad side in connection with the federal government and the oldest university in the country.

In a statement, there was no new allegations in a statement in which the latest cuts were announced that were issued by the Task Force of the administration for anti -Semitism. Instead, the school's government officials accused the “discrimination against passivation and anti -Semitic nuisance” that they “plagued”, the campus in Cambridge, trade fair, “plagued”.

“There is a dark problem on Harvard's campus and by priorizing the appeasement before the accountability obligation, the institutional leaders have forfeited the school's right to support the taxpayer,” said Task Force.

The Task Force did not describe which subsidies were canceled, although it was called, eight federal authorities were involved in the removal of the money. The officials said that the cuts of $ 450 million were at 2.2 billion US dollars that the administration had already frozen.

A Harvard spokesman did not immediately return a request for comments.

The government has been contradicting Harvard since the end of March when the Task Force said that it would check about 9 billion US dollars of federal money that were set for the university and its affiliated companies. Harvard later rejected a list of the Federal Government's intrusive requirements and filed a lawsuit to question the suspension of the overalls of several years in the amount of $ 2.2 billion.

Last week, the education secretary Linda McMahon Harvard asked not to apply for future federal grants. In an answer on Monday, the President of Harvard, Alan M. Garber, announced that the university and the Trump administration shared “similarities in a number of critical questions, including the importance of ending anti -Semitism and other bigotry on campus”.
