When classrooms become battlegrounds: Trump’s war on academia

【漫话天下丨环环打压 哈佛“硬刚”Can academia hold its ground against politics?】

近日，特朗普政府宣布暂停哈佛大学招收国际学生资格，引发广泛关注。哈佛大学奋起反击，起诉美国政府。该禁令虽被一名联邦法官叫停，特朗普却要求哈佛大学的外国学生比例不得超过15%。他还持续对哈佛施压，要求其提交外国学生名单。

Recently, the U.S. government announced the suspension of Harvard University's ability to enroll foreign students, drawing global attention. In response, Harvard filed a lawsuit against the government, prompting a federal judge to temporarily halt the ban. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump demanded that the proportion of foreign students at Harvard not exceed 15 percent and continued to pressure the university to hand over a list of its international students.

近几个月来，特朗普政府以哈佛大学等常青藤名校为重点打击目标，对高等教育体系展开了猛烈攻击，甚至还宣称要“采取一切合法手段关闭教育部”。通过冻结资金、发起审查、吊销招收国际学生资质等手段，特朗普政府试图削弱高校自主性，重塑美国高等教育体系。

In recent months, the Trump administration has made Harvard University a primary target, launching a series of aggressive measures against the Ivy League-led U.S. higher education system, and even claiming to "use every legal means to shut down the Department of Education." By freezing federal funds, launching investigations and suspending the ability to enroll foreign students, the administration aims to weaken university autonomy and reshape the college system.

不仅如此，特朗普政府还以“国家安全”为由持续收紧留学政策，包括暂停留学生签证面试、扩大社交媒体审查范围，甚至“狠狠”撤销中国留学生签证。政治干预学术自治、收紧赴美留学——不仅是特朗普政府强硬移民政策的延伸，也是美国两党博弈在教育领域的集中体现。因为在共和党看来，高等学府特别是顶尖高校是左翼自由派或民主党的大本营。特朗普政府对教育界的一轮又一轮进攻，正是为了推行保守派意识形态、巩固其政治基本盘。

Moreover, the administration has continued exerting pressure on foreign students, citing national security concerns: canceling visa interviews, censoring social media records and "aggressively revoking” visas for Chinese students. Politicizing university autonomy and shutting the gate to foreign students are not only part of the administration's immigration agenda but also reflect escalating partisan battles in education. For Republicans, higher education – especially Ivy League schools – is seen as a stronghold of liberal and Democratic influence. The administration's continuous attacks on the education system aim to promote conservative ideologies and secure its voter base.

当教育被政治裹挟，昔日的天之骄子沦为学术难民。这个本应理性的公共领域也被迫成为被“重构”的意识形态“堡垒”。

When education is politicized under the guise of "national security," what was once a rational public sphere descends into an ideological fortress that must be rebuilt.
