Pentagon to cut ties with Harvard over ‘wokesters’, ending training, programs and fellowships
Pentagon ditches Harvard as Hegseth declares university too ‘woke’
AI Summary
The Pentagon, under Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, is ending all military training, fellowships, and certificate programs with Harvard University. Hegseth, a former Fox host, cited Harvard's "wokeness" and alleged anti-military bias as the reason for the decision. This move follows months of threats and lawsuits from the Trump administration, which accuses Harvard and other universities of promoting antisemitism and leftist ideology. The Pentagon will also evaluate graduate programs for active-duty service members at all Ivy League and other civilian universities. Hegseth claims that these institutions harbor pervasive bias and toxic ideologies that undermine the military's mission. The decision marks an escalation in the administration's efforts to pressure educational institutions to align with its views.
