Harvard University is in trouble with the U.S. government because it does not provide authorities with information about foreign students who engage in "illegal and violent activities." Harvard staff say it is important for them to adhere to their own principles and values of independence from constitutional rights. Standing up for your own values is good, but it comes at a cost, because by refusing to provide information, Harvard can be deprived of the opportunity to accept citizens of another country for studying, revoking its SEVP certification. The U.S. government has already suspended financial support for the university, freezing federal grants, which amount to almost $3,000,000 .
Harvard can correct the situation until April 30 - this is the deadline set by the government for the university so that they still provide information about offending students.
