Harvard University appears in federal court Monday, challenging $2.6 billion in funding cuts by the Trump administration. The university accuses the government of using funding as leverage to control its academic decisions. The cuts followed Harvard’s rejection of demands from a federal antisemitism task force. The task force wanted sweeping changes to Harvard’s policies on campus protests, admissions, hiring and more. Harvard, with a $53 billion endowment, has self-funded some research but warns it can’t cover all losses. The Trump administration denies retaliation, stating the cuts align with its policies.
