Report: "Harvard refuses to comply"

"Harvard University has said it will not comply with a list of demands from the Trump administration that purport to crack down on anti-Semitism."

The refusal puts $9bn of federal grants & contracts on the line.

Harvard's president said the institution would “not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights”.

No one should wear armour. Power corrupts...

@DrALJONES the $9B would have been on the line after the next demand or the next. No reason to start with compliance.
