American professors sue the Trump administration.

Harvard files lawsuit against the Trump administration due to threat to halt funding

The Association of Presidents of Universities in the U.S. and its branch at Harvard have filed a lawsuit against the president's administration. The statement concerns the threat to stop federal funding to Harvard amounting to $8.7 billion. The main goal of the lawsuit is to reduce pressure on higher education institutions.

Some prestigious universities in the U.S. have been deprived of federal grants by the government. The government is dissatisfied with the demands regarding the closure of projects aimed at diversity, equality, and inclusivity. One such university is Harvard.

'It is important to fight against discrimination and protect students. But Trump is using grants for hospitals and research to influence scholars through our policy,' said Nicholas Bouwh, a Harvard professor.

The president's administration is also considering taking action against other educational institutions, including Stanford, the University of Washington, and the University of California.

The U.S. president has announced strict sanctions against educational institutions and students participating in protests. Any college or university that allows 'illegal protests' will be deprived of federal funding.

Harvard and Stanford have already decided to suspend the hiring of new staff due to the threat of reduced federal funding.

President Trump has also announced the possibility of eliminating the Department of Education.

Analysis: Harvard professors are going to court due to the threat of halting funding, which heavily impacts the university's activities. This issue also concerns other universities subject to the Trump administration's restrictions. The participants of the lawsuit not only aim to preserve funding but also to protect students' policies and rights. However, there is a risk that such a court battle could negatively affect diplomatic relations between universities and the government.
