A new episode of the Academic Freedom Podcast has been released. The podcast is sponsored by the Academic Freedom Alliance and the Center for Academic Freedom and Free Speech at Yale Law School.
This episode features a conversation with co-blogger Eugene Volokh, the Thomas M. Siebel Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution. He blogged about the Harvard situation here.
On May 22, the Department of Homeland Security announced that Harvard University has lost its certification to participate in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program. As a consequence, international students enrolled at Harvard University will no longer be given student visas. Harvard quickly filed suit, and received a temporary restraining order from the federal district court in Massachusetts.
On the podcast we discuss what the Trump administration is doing with international students at Harvard, the implications for the university and other universities that might find themselves in the crosshairs of the administration, and the First Amendment questions raised by the latest step by the administration to bring Harvard to heel.
