In a clash of titans that’s got everyone from TikTok to lecture halls buzzing, Harvard University is locked in a high-stakes battle with the U.S. government over foreign student policies. 🎓⚖️ The drama began when federal authorities suspended Harvard’s ability to enroll international students, ordering current ones to transfer or face legal consequences—a move the Ivy League institution called "illegal" and "damaging."
A federal judge quickly hit pause on the order, but tensions are still red-hot. This showdown follows Harvard’s lawsuit last month accusing the government of using funding threats to meddle in academic decisions. 🚨 With over 5,000 international students at risk, the case raises bigger questions: Can universities protect their independence amid growing political pressure?
"This isn’t just about visas—it’s about values," said one student activist in a tweet that’s now gone viral. 🌍💬 As the legal drama unfolds, educators worldwide are watching closely: Will politics trump academic freedom?
