For a college with endowment over $50 Billion (as of 2023), they don’t need government funding.

Amen, bro. That goes for any college or university (what’s the difference anyway?). If they can’t afford to stay in business even with their ludicrous tuitions, then they shouldn’t be in business.

The Hahvud prez sez: "Our motto—Veritas, or truth—guides us ..."

What a joke!

The real motto of Harvard used to be "All Power to the Soviets."
Now it is "Death to America!"

Trump should tell Harvard “Glad we can agree”. You are a private college and the Feds should not be involved in your business in any way. Have a nice day. That is all. Conservatives have been on the wrong side of this meat grinder for years. Be it gay marriage, men in women’s sports. Men in women’s bathrooms etc the feds cut your funds unless you do what they say. The courts have made clear that this is a dandy way to handle things. Hell, they cut off highway funds if you didn’t raise the drinking age. Libertarians have argued that this is no way to run a government. maybe now Harvard types will agree.

If they truly believed in Marxism for ALL, they’d realize they are the rich. And eat themselves instead of taking federal money away from veterans and highways.

Yes, and that’s a prevailing status at an amazing segment of
our universities.

There rationality and perception of reality degrades in direct proportion as they come to believe Marxism.
