More Than 600 Harvard Faculty Urge Governing Boards To Resist Demands From Trump
More than 600 Harvard faculty members signed a letter urging the University’s governing boards to publicly oppose political attacks on higher education, particularly those linked to the Trump administration. Prompted by Columbia University's concessions under federal pressure, the letter calls on Harvard to legally resist demands that threaten academic freedom and university autonomy. Faculty from across disciplines emphasized the need for collective resistance among universities. The letter, supported by students and alumni, highlights rising concern over threats to free expression and democratic principles within academia. Harvard has yet to issue a public response.

Columns: Harvard Can’t Fight Dirty if Its Hands Aren’t Clean
In this opinion column, Jacob M. Miller argues that Harvard must reform its internal policies proactively to maintain credibility and resist political pressure from Donald Trump. While Trump's demands of universities like Columbia include some reasonable reforms—such as enforcing existing rules—his authoritarian tactics have gained traction partly due to universities’ inaction and perceived leniency. Miller urges Harvard to fix flawed disciplinary systems, enforce speech regulations, and reduce faculty interference in governance to avoid appearing as though it's capitulating to external pressure. Ultimately, he warns, Harvard must clean house or risk being dismantled by Washington.
专栏：哈佛若不廉洁，就无法对抗肮脏
在这篇专栏文章中，雅各布·米勒认为，哈佛大学必须改革其内部政策，以保持积极信誉并反抗唐纳德·特朗普的政治压力。虽然特朗普对哥伦比亚大学等大学的要求包括一些合理的改革——例如执行现有规则——但他的独裁策略因此获得支持持，部分原因是大学的不那么明显的宽容。米勒敦促哈佛大学修复有缺陷的纪律制度，执行宗教管制，教师减少对管理的权力，贵族看起来似乎屈服于外部压力。最终，他警告说，哈佛大学必须整顿内部，否则就涉及华盛顿被拆散的风险。
Columns: Harvard Students Don’t Need To Work Harder. Administrators Do.

He emphasizes that real progress requires collaboration with students and prioritizing their holistic development—not just increasing academic pressure.

An exhibition at the Harvard Art Museums asks what we can learn from Edvard Munch’s 40-year obsession with a man and woman at the shore.
An exhibition at the Harvard Art Museums, Edvard Munch: Technically Speaking, explores Munch’s decades-long fascination with the motif Two Human Beings (The Lonely Ones)—a man and woman standing at a shoreline, both together and apart. Through variations in painting and printmaking, Munch revisited the scene for over 40 years, experimenting with color, technique, and emotional tone. Curators Elizabeth Rudy and Lynette Roth highlight how Munch used this repeated imagery to explore human connection, solitude, and artistic imperfection. While long interpreted as a symbol of loneliness, the exhibition invites viewers to consider the motif as a reflection of quiet companionship.
