Trump Suspends Visas for New Harvard International Students

Trump Suspends Visas for New Harvard International Students

This article was originally published by The Epoch Times: Trump Suspends Visas for New Harvard International Students

In a striking move, President Donald Trump has issued a proclamation suspending international visas for incoming students at Harvard University, citing a failure to adequately address conduct violations on campus. This decision, made on June 4, emerges amidst an ongoing legal tussle between the Trump administration and the prestigious Ivy League institution over halted federal funding.

The proclamation, titled “Enhancing National Security by Addressing Risks at Harvard University,” effectively bars any new foreign students from entering the U.S. under nonimmigrant student (F), vocational (M), and exchange visitor (J) visas. Furthermore, it instructs the Secretary of State to consider rescinding existing visas for current Harvard students who fall under the proclamation’s specifications.

Central to Trump’s argument is the assertion that Harvard has neglected to “discipline at least some categories of conduct violations on campus.” The proclamation also raises concerns that adversaries, such as the Chinese Communist Party, may be exploiting American higher education to misuse the student visa program for espionage purposes.

The administration accuses Harvard of inadequate responses to allegations and of ignoring requests from the Department of Homeland Security regarding information on foreign students’ purported illegal activities. “These actions and failures directly undermine the Federal Government’s ability to ensure compliance with Federal law,” the proclamation warns.

In response, Harvard maintains its commitment to protecting its international students, asserting that the administration’s actions amount to an illegal retaliation that violates the university’s First Amendment rights. A spokesperson for Harvard stated, “This is yet another illegal retaliatory step taken by the Administration in violation of Harvard’s First Amendment rights.”

The White House argues that the drastic measures are necessary to “safeguard national security,” criticizing Harvard for allegedly failing to provide sufficient data on its foreign students and reporting deficiencies concerning just three individuals. The proclamation suggests that Harvard is either not fully transparent about its disciplinary records or is lax in overseeing its foreign student population.

This proclamation follows a U.S. District Court ruling on May 29, where Judge Allison Burroughs decided to maintain a block on the Department of Homeland Security’s attempt to revoke Harvard’s certification under the Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP), which allows the institution to enroll foreign students. During the same week, she ordered the Trump administration to refrain indefinitely from altering Harvard’s international student visa protocol.

Previously, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem had directed the termination of Harvard’s SEVP certification, citing the university’s unwillingness to provide requested conduct records for foreign students. Harvard has consistently defended its actions, claiming that the administration’s aggressive stance is retaliation for its refusal to comply with a series of demands earlier this year, which coincided with the announcement of a freeze on billions of dollars in federal funding.

In addition to accusations of insufficient action against anti-Semitism on campus, the Trump administration has suggested that Harvard maintains connections with the Chinese Communist Party. As the situation unfolds, Harvard is also pursuing legal action to recover its frozen federal funding, asserting that its First Amendment rights have been infringed upon.
