A FEDERAL JUDGE on Friday temporarily blocked the Trump administration’s efforts to ban foreign students from attending Harvard University, the latest in the ongoing feud between President

Harvard University sued the Trump administration on Friday after having its ability to host foreign students revoked. The move marked the latest escalation in the ongoing back-and-forth between the president and one of the nation’s most prestigious universities.

Harvard University's bonds, which are part of the Ivy League school's $8.2 billion debt pile, struggled on Friday amid an increasingly fraught standoff with U.S. President Donald Trump's administration.

The lawsuit came less than a day after the Department of Homeland Security said it would block international students from enrolling at Harvard University.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services said on Monday that it was terminating $60 million in federal grants to Harvard University saying the Ivy League institution failed to address antisemitic harassment and ethnic discrimination on campus.

Columbia was cited for violating federal civil rights law by allegedly "acting with deliberate indifference towards student-on-student harassment of Jewish students.”

The total of government grants meant for Harvard University that have been frozen or cancelled is $3 billion since President Donald Trump has taken office.
