For Trump’s Harvard Deal, $500 Million Is Only a Starting Point
The White House is reportedly seeking a settlement from Harvard University that could exceed $500 million. This comes after the Trump administration alleged that the university's admissions policies discriminate against Asian American applicants. While the $500 million figure is seen as a starting point, the cost of the deal could rise significantly if Harvard does not agree to government oversight provisions. The negotiations are ongoing, and the final settlement amount could be much higher than the initial $500 million demand. The White House is taking a tough stance, indicating that it views the oversight measures as a crucial component of any potential agreement. The outcome of these negotiations could have far-reaching implications for the relationship between the federal government and higher education institutions.
