While many Americans welcome the end of unpopular left-wing policies, the Trump administration is using this opportunity to assert political control over higher education.

Harvard’s recent actions, including adopting a restrictive definition of antisemitism and canceling a Gaza-focused event, exemplify this trend of capitulation.
