As a selfless public service, I’ve decided to provide one roundup post of all this week’s Harvard news, screened and curated for all those tired of all things Harvard. And the Globe’s Joan Vennochi even has that angle covered, i.e. Harvard fatigue. … The WSJ editorial board poses a question: “Is Trump Trying to Destroy Harvard?” Its answer: Yes, unfortunately, for both Harvard and America. … From the NY Post: “Harvard President Alan Garber admits lack of conservative views on campus is a ‘problem’” It’s true. It is a problem. But as the WSJ notes in the previously linked piece: The problem requires reform, not destruction. …. Speaking of conservatives, Stanley Kurtz at the National Review drops the BS that the crackdown on Harvard is about antisemitism, making it clear it’s all about right-wing ideological resentment. I’m sticking with Steven Pinker in this debate. …. Trump has suggested a 15 percent cap on foreign students enrolled at Harvard, the Hill reports. It looks like the foreign students are obliging the president, requesting information about how to transfer out of Harvard, the NYT reports. … From Larry Edleman’s excellent Globe newsletter: “In Trump’s Bizarro World, kneecapping Harvard will make America great again.” … As a sort of financial coup de grâce after the research-grants kneecapping, Trump has announced he’s cutting all fed contracts with Harvard, reports the AP at GBH. … OK, another piece from the Globe, this one from a rural-Maine alum of Harvard who’s now proudly standing by the insufferable snobs who he had to endure while in Cambridge. …. And from the Harvard Crimson: “A Reluctant Fight: Inside Harvard’s War with Washington.”
