I guess so , as says Suzianne. Tell me, do they, barring any disqualifying actions on their part (sorry if this seems a sarcastic comment,,,it is not), have any Right to government funds?

International students are usually charged full tuition prices, but this is often paid by their government in exchange for returning to work in their country afterwards for a period of time. 😆

Are you of the 'Answer Like Zahlanzi' school? Jesus. Did you just answer my question......does the college have rights to USA govt funding? Geez.

The Trump administration on Thursday revoked Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students, marking a sharp escalation in the battle over the Ivy League school’s autonomy in the face of the administration’s policy demands.

“Harvard can no longer enroll foreign students and existing foreign students must transfer or lose their legal status,” the US Department of Homeland Security said in a statement.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said on Monday that it was terminating $60 million in federal grants to Harvard because the Ivy League institution failed to address antisemitic harassment and ethnic discrimination on campus.

This is why asked if there is a RIght of Harvard to govt funds. Y'all are so argumentative that you see 'heat' in every repub post. It is a good question.

I guess it would be argumentative for me, though, to ask if y'all think that we need to stop antisemitism? This would be a good way, I'd think.

Some of these universities have students who are raising funds for or providing material support for terrorists. It is one thing to voice support, [ie have free speech], but when it crosses over into action like material support and action like violence against Jews [for example], then it becomes a criminal act.

That is a reason to prosecute individuals who have committed crimes or incite others to violence; not a good reason to bar all foreign students from Harvard and expel those already there who have committed no crimes.

you might want to ask yourself... what has me supporting terrorists and supporting racists to the extent one group want to extinguish the other, constantly calling for killing them?

what happened to you?

Well that has been done. But Havard is courting with some Chinese Communist Party [on campus], and is encouraging the abuse of Jews. Apparently there is also some permission / certification, all universities need, to have foreign students. Homeland Security revoked Harvard's. I need to read up on this because Im not certain what the certification is about.

Universities don't have "rights" of course but this illegal attempt to punish a university for the political viewpoints of some of their students is beyond any legitimate power ever given to the Executive Branch.

Expect another slapdown of Trump in the courts.

You are also a supporter terrorism so I guess you wont be happy about it. Kristi Noem asked for information about students demonstrations in support of Hamas and Harvard refused so their 'Student and Exchange Visitor Program' certification was revoked.

Collective punishment, eh? Ban all foreigners because some of them are nasty?

Say, I have a plan to make America Really Great For One And All: Cut all federal funding (for roads, education, bridge inspection and repairs, emergency loans when tornados hit, forestry and parks services, etc. etc. etc.) to all states and the District of Columbia and that floating island of garbage (I think it's called Puerto Rico) which have so much as a single KKK member, or WASP (White angry stupid person) who posts on Internet forums. We'll call it Collective Republican Equalisation & Economic Punishment (CREEP).


Whoa, that oughta balance the budget AND get rid of racism and anti-Semitism, in one swell foop !
