The pulse, which Donald Trump supports against Harvard, entered the graduation ceremony. President of the Institution Alan Garber, who was the most noticeable person in the fight against the President of the United States, received applause from students and teachers before they began to speak.
Garber did not mention Trump, but, welcoming the participants in the promotion of 2025, he made special attention to students and families “from around the world, for example, the indirect order of the US president in order to block their ability to enroll foreign students. His phrase caused a new outbreak of applause.
Harvard President continued his brief speech, asking students to defend education. “The best way to recognize Harvard, and what these years had for you is to defend education. Everything that we can achieve, scientifically, technologically and even economically, it is based on previous knowledge. In what other place are you going to find the way to knowledge, but in education? ”
Trump’s desire to intervene in university centers to apply his ultra -conservative agenda – under the excuse of anti -Semitism and the rejection of gender diversity and policy of sexual orientation – has encountered the oldest university in the country, which currently confronts the threats and economic reductions of the administration. Since last month, the administration froze about 3.2 billion dollars in subsidies and contracts with Harvard, in addition to the fact that they ordered to block their ability to enroll foreign students.
