The #Trump admin would also end its widening number of investigations into #Harvard, including ones conducted by the #DOJ & another inquiry that the #Commerce Dept announced on Friday. The deal would also stop attempts by the Trump admin to block the #university from enrolling thousands of #InternationalStudents….

#Harvard would also make commitments to continue its efforts to combat *antisemitism* [#FreeSpeech] on campus, two of the people said.
In return, Harvard — one of the largest recipients in #HigherEducation of federal #research money — would see its research #funding restored & avoid the appointment of a #monitor, a condition the #school has demanded as a way to preserve its #AcademicFreedom.

…under the framework coming together, #Harvard would agree to spend $500 million on vocational & educational programs & research, three of the people said. That figure, currently penciled in to be paid out over years, would meet a demand from #Trump that Harvard spend more than double what #ColumbiaUniversity agreed last month to pay. It would also satisfy Harvard’s wish that it not pay the government directly, as #Columbia is doing.
Don’t do it!!! 
#Harvard & White House Move Toward Potential Landmark #Settlement
A potential $500 million settlement would end a monthslong battle that pitted the nation’s wealthiest school against the #Trump administration’s extraordinary crackdown on #HigherEducation.

Also Friday, #Commerce Secy Howard Lutnick sent a letter to Alan M. Garber, #Harvard’s president, claiming that the #university had not lived up to its obligations surrounding federally funded #patents, which are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Acc/to the letter, the agency will begin a comprehensive review of Harvard’s compliance w/federal #law.
The new pressures on Harvard come during a week when the govt had also taken significant steps to bring other schools into line with its agenda.
#Trump stepped up pressure on #Harvard Friday, adding a new investigation into the university’s #patents & renewing a host of claims that the #university is unfit to host #InternationalStudents.
[The Trump admin filed a court motion Friday accusing] Harvard of failure to control crime, & claims that Harvard’s leadership has “shown itself to be incapable of properly hosting, monitoring, disciplining, & reporting on its foreign students.”

Slim van #Harvard. Behalve meer erkenning voor #bitcoin ook een lange neus naar #Trump. Als die de koers van bitcoin opjaagt - bv door #btc toe te laten in #401k pensioenpotjes - verrijkt hij behalve zichzelf ook de uni waar hij zo'n hekel aan heeft. https://www.theblock.co/post/366224/harvard-had-more-money-in-blackrocks-bitcoin-etf-than-google-shares-at-end-of-last-quarter
