The United States vs Harvard
CNN Anchor and Correspondent Omar Jimenez premieres an inside look at how the Trump administration's crackdown on academic institutions came to a head at Harvard University.
Harvard, a monument to America's higher education system and the oldest, wealthiest, and most influential American university, has become a figurehead for an emerging conservative focus on reshaping academia in recent years. DEI policies, critical race theory, and affirmative action became partisan rallying cries against universities like Harvard.
"This is really a battle between two of the world's most powerful institutions in their respective categories," Jimenez said. "What happens with Harvard will likely set the tone for what other universities do if faced with similar headwinds. That's why this story is so important," Jimenez added.
In this episode, Jimenez reports on the ground from Harvard's campus, finding a range of perspectives among the student body and faculty, tracing how the political drama has unfolded on campus and its impact. He investigates how Harvard quietly made changes aligning with the conservative agenda, even as they publicly fought what they considered government overreach into a private university. Jimenez also uncovers why the world's richest university needs federal funding, and the devastating consequences on potentially life-saving scientific research when that funding was cut off.
