with Hamas, has financed institutions such as Georgetown and Northwestern, where critics claim that specific programs encourage anti-Israel viewpoints. A 2024 House report revealed that
many universities, including Harvard and Yale, tend to underreport foreign donations, thus keeping substantial amounts concealed from public scrutiny. Furthermore, the White House
claimed that $60 billion in foreign gifts and contracts have been funneled into the nation’s universities over the past several decades, with only about 300 of the approximately 6,000 institutions self- reporting foreign money each year. In April, Trump signed an executive
order demanding that schools receiv- ing foreign funds open their books to the public. “For far too long, foreign funds have

university is already feeling the crunch. In March, President Alan Garber wrote that Harvard will “implement a temporary pause on staff and faculty hiring,” among other austerity measures, in response to “substantial financial uncertainties driven by rapidly shifting federal policies.” Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., a
Harvard alum, told Newsmax that the school has become nearly unrecognizable and has swung so far out of the mainstream that “we are seeing parents and students voting with their feet.” — M.L.
