The Trump administration has directed federal agencies to identify and potentially terminate all existing contracts with Harvard University, citing concerns over the university’s defiance of a Supreme Court ruling on race-based admissions and its alleged failure to address antisemitism on campus. Agencies have until June 6 to report which contracts have been canceled, and are being encouraged to avoid Harvard in future procurements. The move affects around 30 contracts totaling an estimated $100 million. President Trump also proposed redirecting $3 billion in grants from Harvard to trade schools. The escalating feud follows Harvard’s rejection of federal demands to audit faculty and admissions, which already resulted in a $2 billion cut to research funding and a legal battle over foreign student visa restrictions.
