The U.S. Department of Education has frozen over $2 billion in federal funding for Harvard University after the school rejected President Donald Trump's demands for policy changes on diversity. The move marks a new level of contentiousness between the Trump administration and American universities. Trump's administration has frozen federal funding for several universities, accusing them of failing to fight antisemitism on campus. Harvard has rejected the demands, stating that they would stifle intellectual freedoms. The Department of Education said that Harvard's response reinforces an entitlement mindset in prestigious universities.
