From Daily Mail: President Donald Trump has banned foreign nationals from studying at Harvard University in the latest escalation of his clash with the Ivy League institution.
The president issued an executive order Wednesday entitled Enhancing National Security by Addressing Risks at Harvard University, which suspends the Ivy League’s student visa program – declaring that is a ‘privilege granted by our government, not a guarantee.’
He also doubled down on his claims that the school violated federal law, and argued it is important to limit international students for national security reasons while he also restricted travel from a dozen countries.
The executive order states:
“The Federal Bureau of Investigation has long warned that foreign adversaries and competitors take advantage of easy access to American higher education to, among other things, steal technical information and products, exploit expensive research and development to advance their own ambitions and spread false information for political or other reasons.”
“Our adversaries, including the People’s Republic of China try to take advantage of American higher education by exploiting the student visa program for improper purposes and by using visiting students to collect information at elite universities in the United States.”
“We cannot have open migration from any country where we cannot safely and reliably vet and screen… That is why today I am signing a new executive order placing travel restrictions on countries including Yemen, Somalia, Haiti, Libya, and numerous others,” President Trump declared in a video announcement recorded from the Oval Office.

Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote in a statement on X, “Admission to the United States to study at an “elite” American university is a privilege, not a right. This Department of Justice will vigorously defend the President’s proclamation suspending the entry of new foreign students at Harvard University based on national security concerns.”
