During a segment on Fox News Channel's "America Reports", Education Secretary Linda McMahon articulated the Trump administration's strategic aim to engage Harvard University in negotiations aimed at enhancing the institution.
McMahon highlighted the administration's success in similar efforts with Columbia University, expressing optimism by stating, "I think that were making great strides" with Columbia.
As reported by Breitbart, McMahon elaborated on the administration's intentions, saying, "The goal really is to have Harvard come to the table, lets negotiate, lets work through the things that we have put forward that we believe are going to make things better on the campus of Harvard."
She emphasized the administration's proactive approach, referencing a firm letter sent to Harvard's Provost Alan Garber, which outlined their objectives. Despite the administration's hopes for dialogue, the response from Harvard was a lawsuit, a move that McMahon described as a setback in their efforts to foster constructive discussions.
The administration's approach underscores a broader commitment to reforming higher education institutions, aligning with conservative principles of accountability and improvement. McMahon's remarks reflect a determination to return to negotiations, with the ultimate aim of benefiting both Harvard and its student body.
