Since the outbreak of the Gaza war in October 2023, President Trump has pressured some Ivy League universities, where anti-Israel protests have taken place, to halt subsidies and has demanded that the government be allowed to intervene in university personnel matters.
In this context, as Harvard University resisted by stating that it could not tolerate infringement on university autonomy, the Trump administration increased pressure by cutting off various forms of support to Harvard, warning of subsidy withdrawals, and moving to terminate government service contracts.
