🎓 CNN previews “The United States vs Harvard,” chronicling a landmark court fight over alleged government influence on campuses, escalating after October 7 and culminating in a multibillion‑dollar funding freeze threat. 💰 The Trump administration moved to freeze more than $2B in promised federal funds, amid a broader crackdown tied to pro‑Palestinian demonstrations and claims universities failed to protect students. 🗣️ Campus climate: dueling student narratives describe fear, doxxing, and harassment, while letters, protests, and donor pressure ignited a national debate over antisemitism, anti‑Zionism, and university responses. 🧭 Governance shock: congressional scrutiny, plagiarism allegations, and political pressure preceded President Claudine Gay’s resignation and interim leadership under Alan Garber. 📺 Program note: Report by Omar Jimenez airs on “The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper,” September 28 at 10pm ET/PT. #Hashtags
