Federal judge blocks Trump effort to keep Harvard from hosting foreign students

It maintains the American boycott judge Alison Buruz in Boston’s ability to host foreign students while determining the case, but it is no less than resolving all legal obstacles to Harvard University to host international students. It is worth noting that Buroz said that the federal government still has the authority to review Harvard’s ability to host international students through the normal operations shown in the law.

Harvard University filed a lawsuit against the Ministry of Internal Security in May after the agency suddenly withdrew the school’s certificate to host foreign students, issue papers for their visas, and avoid most of its usual procedures. This procedure had forced nearly 7,000 international students to Harvard – about a quarter of his total registration – to transfer or risk in the United States illegally. New foreign students could have been prevented from coming to Harvard University.

The university said it was suffering from illegal revenge to reject the White House’s demands to reform Harvard’s policies related to campus protests, admission, employment and more. Poroz temporarily stopped the government’s working hours after sustaining Harvard.

Less than two weeks later, in early June, President Donald Trump tried a new strategy. He issued an announcement to prevent foreign students from entering the United States to attend Harvard University, citing a different legal justification. Harvard University challenged the move, saying that the president was trying to end over the temporary court. Borose has temporarily prevented Trump’s announcement. The emergency bloc is still in effect, and Boroz did not address the advertisement on Friday.

“We expect the judge to issue a more permanent decision in the coming days,” Harvard said on Friday in an e -mail to international students. “Our schools will continue to develop emergency plans to ensure that our international students and scientists can follow their academic work to the maximum extent possible, in the event of a change in the qualification of students’ visa or their ability to register at Harvard University. ”

Students are forgotten

The stopping and beginnings of the legal battle led to the instability of the current students and left others around the world pending knowing whether they will be able to attend the oldest and wealthy University of America.

The university said in the court file that the Trump administration’s efforts to prevent Harvard from registering international students had created an environment of “deep fear, anxiety and confusion.” Mourin Martin, director of immigration services at Harvard University, said countless international students asked about the transfer from the university.

However, admission and students advisers indicated that most of the current Harvard and potential scientists reserve the hope that they can enroll in the university.

For a potential graduate student, admission to Harvard’s Graduate Studies College has saved her educational dreams. Huang, who requested that it be recognized only by her title for fear of targeting her, witnessed the original doctorate at Vanderbilt University, which was canceled after federal discounts in research and programs related to diversity, fairness and integration.

After a few weeks, Harvard University climbed a scholarship that she could not reject. She rushed to make a visa interview date in Beijing. After more than a month of appointment, despite the court’s orders against the Trump administration policies, they still have not heard.

“Your personal efforts and your ability mean nothing in this era,” Huang said in a post on social media. “Why should it be very difficult to go to school?”

An ongoing battle

Trump was fighting with Harvard University for several months after the university rejected a series of government demands aimed at addressing conservative complaints that the school has become very liberal and has been tolerated with hostile harassment. Trump officials reduced more than $ 2.6 billion in research grants, ending federal contracts and threatened to cancel the state of tax exemption in Harvard.

On Friday, the president said in a post on the social truth that the administration is working with Harvard University to address its “circular violations” and that a deal with Harvard University can be announced next week. “They acted very appropriately during these negotiations, and they seem to be committed to what is right,” said Post Trump.

The Trump administration targeted the first Harvard international students in April. The Minister of Internal Security, Christie, called for Harvard to hand over a set of records related to any dangerous or illegal activity by foreign students. Harvard says she complied, but Nayyim said that the response had decreased on May 22, and he canceled Harvard’s certificate in the student and stock exchange program.

The school said in a lawsuit, that the punishment was instantly put Harvard in a non -favorable position because it is competing for the best students in the world. “Without its international students, Harvard University is not Harvard,” the lawsuit said.

This procedure had lifted some of the graduate schools that were highly recruited from abroad. Some schools abroad have quickly made invitations to Harvard students, including two universities in Hong Kong.

Harvard University President Alan Garper said previously that the university has made changes to fight anti -Semitism. But Harvard, as he said, will not shout from its “basic principle -protected principles”, even after receiving the federal warning.
