Judge Extends Court Order Protecting Harvard’s International Students from Trump’s Ban

A federal judge extended her block on the Trump administration's efforts to restrict Harvard's international students, allowing students to continue studying in the U.S. while legal proceedings continue. The administration had attempted to limit Harvard's enrollment through visa denials, secondary airport screenings, and social media vetting, which Harvard and students argue are illegal and retaliatory. Nearly 7,000 international students attend Harvard, representing 27% of the student body, and some are considering transferring due to the administration's actions.
