The Department of Homeland Security confirmed on Thursday that Secretary Kristi Noem had ordered the elimination of the school's Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) certification, Reuters reported.
"This administration is holding Harvard accountable for fostering violence, antisemitism, and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus. It is a privilege, not a right, for universities to enroll foreign students and benefit from their higher tuition payments to help pad their multibillion-dollar endowments," Noem said.
The move comes as the administration feuds with the school over its efforts to combat antisemitism in the wake of the Oct. 7 massacre that kicked off the ongoing Israel-Hamas War.
