Harvard President Garber reponded in a public statement that Harvard will not comply with these demands. He relies on the values of traditional independence of universities and on Harvard's motto of Veritas.

Harvard at the moment, is not capitulating to Trump and is seemingly ready to fight.
A public letter from the Office of the President of Harvard University, addressed to the Harvard community. President Alan M. Garber discusses the history of federal funding supporting research at Harvard and criticizes a recent set of demands from the federal government, which he claims threaten Harvard’s independence under the guise of combating antisemitism. The letter argues the government’s proposed requirements—including audits of viewpoints, reductions in power for certain students and faculty, and controls over hiring and teaching—are unconstitutional and infringe on academic freedom. Garber affirms that Harvard will not accept the government’s proposed agreement and stresses the university’s commitment to free inquiry and expression. Continuation of President Garber’s letter, emphasizing Harvard’s moral obligation to fight antisemitism while defending academic freedom. He outlines three commitments: nurturing open inquiry, affirming free speech and consistent discipline, and fostering a community that values difference. He references the Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard decision, reaffirming legal compliance with non-discrimination based on race. The letter concludes with a strong defense of academic independence, asserting that progress and truth arise from free inquiry, not from governmental control, and pledges continued work toward Harvard’s mission of education and discovery.
