Judge Delays Ruling on Trump Efforts to Bar Harvard’s International Students
A federal district judge on Monday delayed a ruling on whether to continue blocking President Trump’s proclamation that barred international students from attending Harvard University.
A temporary injunction on implementing the proclamation remains in place until next week.
Judge Allison D. Burroughs said she would rule by next week on the White House proclamation, after hearing arguments from lawyers for both Harvard and the Trump Administration on Monday morning.
About 5,000 international students are enrolled at Harvard. Another 2,000 recent graduates are in the United States on visas permitting them to work temporarily.
Losing those students could deliver a disabling blow to the campus’s finances, curriculum and identity.
