TL;DR

Harvard University announced it will no longer issue official statements on public matters that do not impact its core function, following recommendations from a working group formed in April. This policy shift comes after Claudine Gay, the first Black president of Harvard, stepped down amid controversy and plagiarism allegations. Alan Garber, the interim president, stated that the university will focus on protecting its autonomy and academic freedom.
