…under the framework coming together, #Harvard would agree to spend $500 million on vocational & educational programs & research, three of the people said. That figure, currently penciled in to be paid out over years, would meet a demand from #Trump that Harvard spend more than double what #ColumbiaUniversity agreed last month to pay. It would also satisfy Harvard’s wish that it not pay the government directly, as #Columbia is doing.#law #extortion #AcademicFreedom #dictatorship #tyranny

#Harvard would also make commitments to continue its efforts to combat *antisemitism* [#FreeSpeech] on campus, two of the people said.In return, Harvard — one of the largest recipients in #HigherEducation of federal #research money — would see its research #funding restored & avoid the appointment of a #monitor, a condition the #school has demanded as a way to preserve its #AcademicFreedom.#Trump #law #extortion #education #dictatorship #tyranny

The #Trump admin would also end its widening number of investigations into #Harvard, including ones conducted by the #DOJ & another inquiry that the #Commerce Dept announced on Friday. The deal would also stop attempts by the Trump admin to block the #university from enrolling thousands of #InternationalStudents….#law #extortion #AcademicFreedom #education #dictatorship #tyranny

@Nonilex Harvard and Harvardians would be the first to realize that any agreement to pay something to or on behalf of Donald Trump is just the first in an endless round of demands that will never cease. Blackmailers never stop blackmailing.

@Nonilex It’s a mistake to agree to any deal with Trump. It’s never enough and he will be back for more. Hasn’t Harvard seen this already from the ‘agreements’ with other universities? Huge mistake and the end of Harvard’s reputation, credibility and integrity.

@Nonilex ...every time I see these bits about our big universities "negotiating with trump and agreeing on a settlement" I just keep thinking "what in the hell did the universities do wrong?" Why would Harvard agree to pay $500 million for what trump wants? How is this not just buried in legal suits & claims in courts? Got $500 mil to throw out? Spend on defending the honor of the institution against the most corrupt president & administration in American history. Ok, I'm done ranting..
