Education Secretary Linda McMahon said Wednesday that U.S. universities can continue federally funded research only if they align with the Trump administration's goals and values.
The Trump administration has ramped up pressure on elite institutions like Harvard, threatening to cancel federal research contracts over what it claims is ideological bias and insufficient cooperation on immigration-related data, according to Newsweek. Tensions escalated after Harvard resisted turning over international student records and faced accusations of tolerating antisemitism on campus.
