The Trump administration has suspended dozens of federal grants to Princeton University, making it the fourth Ivy League school to see its financial support reduced or threatened. The administration has accused universities of not doing enough to combat antisemitism and comply with administration priorities. Princeton's president, Christopher L. Eisgruber, stated that the university will comply with the law, fight antisemitism, and defend academic freedom. The university did not immediately disclose the value of the affected grants. The Trump administration has previously stripped Columbia University of $400 million in grants and contracts and suspended $175 million to the University of Pennsylvania.
