Harvard University Ro: Federal Judge stepped into the Trump administration to ban foreign student enrollment

On Friday, a federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s ban, preventing Harvard University from nominating international students.American District Judge Elison Baroz released the ruling hours after Harvard filed a case challenging the government’s decision. According to CNN report, Harvard described his certification under the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) as “clear vengeance” as “clear vengeance” as “clear vengeance”.Legitimate warJudge Baroz, who is also handling a separate case against the government’s freeze at $ 2.65 billion in federal funding to Harvard, is now overseeing the case on international student ban. Harvard’s latest complaint argues that it is illegal to remove the university from the SEVP system and violate procedural rules.“This is the latest Act in clear vengeance for Harvard to reject the government’s demands to control Harvard’s rule, courses, and its faculty and students’ ‘ideology’, in clear vengeance for Harvard,” the trial said.The university’s request highlighted the sudden confusion caused by the ban, saying: “Immediately effective, countless academic programs, research laboratories, clinics and Harvard’s F -1 and J -1 visa students have been thrown into chaos. Immediate relief is necessary.”Impact on thousands of studentsThe Homeland Security Department (DHS) announced that it is canceling Harvard’s ability to enroll foreign students, which effectively means the university’s international students would have to move elsewhere or the risk of losing their legal status.“With a stroke of a pen, the government has sought to erase a quarter of Harvard’s student body,” said Harvard’s trial.The university has around 7,000 international students from more than 140 countries. This number is about 27 percent of the total enrollment, including coming and current students.Harvard President Alan Garber expressed solidarity with the ruling international students: “You are our classmates and friends, our colleagues and mentor, our companions in the work of this great institution. Thanks to you, we know more, we know more, and our country and our world are more enlightened and more flexible. We will support you because we will try our best to ensure that Harvard remains open to the world.,Government’s stanceThe Trump administration has insisted that universities nominate foreign students as a privilege, not as an authority, especially when they refuse to follow the new policies demanded by the White House. Homeland’s Security Assistant Secretary Trisia McLaglin said, “The lawsuit attempts to squeeze the constitutionally vested powers of the President under Article II. It is a privilege, not an right, to help universities to nominate foreign students and benefit your multibilian-dollars endowments to benefit from their high tuition.,DHS Secretary Christie NoM justified the reculation, refusing to hand over the disciplinary record of Harvard and indicating alleged failures in compliance with government requests, including demands related to the policies of the campus on equity, diversity and inclusion.“NOEM stated that it ordered his department to abolish Harvard’s SEVP certification, refusing to turn on the conduct records of foreign students requested by DHS last month,” said the trial. Although Harvard Counters said that it provided requested information, but the department called its response “insufficient”.Educational backlashThe ban instigated backlash from Harvard’s academic community. Jason Furman, a professor of economics and former Obama administration official, called the move “horrific at every level”.“It is impossible to imagine Harvard without our amazing international students. They are great benefits for all here, innovation and the United States more widely,” Furman said. “Higher education is one of the great exports of America and is a major source of our soft power. I hope it will stop early before damage.”International students are also frightened. Carl Molden, an Austrian junior study in Harvard, said many international students have “worked throughout our life to go to a university like Harvard” but now face uncertainty and possibly need to move on visas.“This is forced recovery,” said the former President of Lawrence Summers, Harvard and the US Treasury Secretary. “This is a vengeance using all the powers of the government due to a political logic with Harvard.”Extensive implicationThe Trump administration’s move against Harvard is part of a comprehensive campaign targeting universities opposing the White House policies, especially around the Israeli-Hamas War, opposition to the campus related to anti-Jews and diversity programs.Harvard is also entangled in a separate case on federal grants and freeze of billions in contracts, and the internal revenue service plans to challenge its tax-free position.Harvard’s trial has warned that the government’s growing demands and punishments have been threatened with the university’s educational and research mission and the country to stand as a global education leader.
