I assume these numbers haven't changed, otherwise Harvard presumably would have announced it.

Fellow Harvard alumni: our alma mater is under attack. The government is threatening its independence, cutting research funding, and undermining free inquiry.

We've added our names to an amicus brief defending Harvard’s values and freedoms. Join us here: bit.ly/HarvardAmicusBrief

Please share!

Heartbreaking essay from our colleague & fellow @haw-uaw.bsky.social union member, unjustly imprisoned since February: “I hope that the judge rules Wednesday that I can be released, so I can return to my lab. There is a data set that I’m halfway finished analyzing. I want to go home and finish it.”

Boston turned out STRONG! 💪 Nearly 20 unions & worker units from across the region came together to say: Hands off our healthcare, research, and jobs!

Billionaires want to gut higher ed & medical research to fund their tax cuts. We’re fighting back. #LaborForHigherEd
