Summers Says Harvard Gave Trump an Opportunity To Threaten University Over Antisemitism Response
Former Harvard President Lawrence H. Summers criticized Harvard’s leadership for responding too slowly to campus antisemitism, saying that delay created an opening for the Trump administration’s threats to revoke $9 billion in federal funding. Speaking at a 1636 Forum alumni event, Summers backed recent disciplinary actions but warned they appeared politically reactive. He emphasized that reforms must be framed as Harvard-led, not Trump-driven, or they risk losing legitimacy. While he praised President Garber’s support for academic freedom, Summers said the Corporation failed in its duty to lead decisively and condemned the slow response of the University’s antisemitism task force.
萨默斯称哈佛大学为特朗普提供了因反犹太主义回应而威胁大学的机会
哈佛大学前校长劳伦斯·H·萨默斯批评哈佛领导层对校园反犹主义反应太慢，称这种惩罚为特朗普政府威胁撤销90亿美元的联邦资金创造了机会。萨默斯于1636年论坛校友活动上发表讲话，支持最近的学科处分，但警告说，这些处分似乎是出于政治反应。他强调，改革必须由哈佛主导，而不是由特朗普推动，否则将失去合法性。萨默斯赞扬加伯校长对学术自由的支持，同时表示，学校未能履行果断领导职责，并谴责大学反犹主义工作特别组反应迟缓。

The letters emphasize protecting free speech, due process, and university self-governance, while condemning antisemitism and warning against its use as a political pretext. Signatories, including law professors and civil rights leaders, stress that recent federal actions represent an unprecedented threat to higher education’s independence and the rule of law.

Amid Freeze, Harvard Will Continue Hiring Undergraduate Course Assistants
Despite a University-wide hiring freeze, Harvard's Faculty of Arts and Sciences will continue hiring undergraduate course assistants (CAs) for large, intro-level courses like Economics 10 and CS50 in fall 2025. Professors say the freeze primarily targets external faculty and staff hires, not student academic positions. However, non-academic student jobs — such as in libraries or cafes — may be impacted, with hires now evaluated case-by-case. The freeze comes amid looming $8B federal funding threats tied to the Trump administration's demands, including cuts to DEI programs and compliance with federal protest restrictions.

‘Inconsistent with Basic Economics’: Harvard Economics Baffled by Trump’s Tariff Policy
Harvard economists sharply criticized Trump’s sweeping tariff policy, calling it “economic malpractice” and a historic self-inflicted supply shock likely to push the U.S. into recession. Former Harvard president Larry Summers labeled it the worst economic mistake since WWII, while professors Mankiw, Furman, Antràs, and Rogoff dismissed Trump's zero-sum views on trade as inconsistent with basic economics. Tariffs on China remain at 125%, despite global backlash. The economists warned of global recession risks, U.S. credibility loss, and deviation from conventional economic norms.
“不符合基本经济学”：哈佛经济学教授对特朗普的关税政策感到困惑
哈佛大学经济学家严厉批评特朗普的全面关税政策，称其为“经济弊端”，是一场历史性的自寻的反弹冲击，可能将美国推入关税。前哈佛大学校长拉里·萨默斯称这是战后最严重的经济逆转。曼昆、弗曼、安特拉斯和罗戈夫等教授则认为，特朗普的贸易零和博弈与经济学基本原理不符。全球强烈反对，但尽管其对中国的关税仍维持在125%风险经济学家们警告称，全球经济增长、美国信誉受损以及丧失传统经济规范的情况正在发生。
Harvard Researchers Develop AI-Driven Framework To Study Social Interactions, A Step Forward for Autism Research
Harvard researchers, led by Bence Ölveczky and Ugne Klibaite, have developed an AI-driven framework to precisely track rat social interactions, marking a breakthrough in studying autism-related behaviors. Using machine learning, the system converts 2D video into 3D pose estimations for multiple animals, replacing time-consuming manual annotation. The study reveals wide variation in behavior among genetically modified rats lacking autism-associated genes, supporting their value as models. While cautioning against overinterpreting animal models, the researchers emphasized the broad potential of this tool to study movement and neurological disorders.

Columns: Putting Academics First Starts With All of Us
In her column, Kelli D. Higgins ’28 argues that while student leadership is celebrated at Harvard, it often overshadows academics, the true purpose of college. Driven by the pressure to stand out in a competitive environment, students may overload on extracurriculars and treat coursework as secondary. Higgins calls for a culture shift that re-centers academic growth, emphasizing that Harvard’s intellectual resources — not just leadership roles — are what truly prepare students for long-term success. Balance, she argues, is key to making the most of a Harvard education.
专栏：学术优先，从我们每个人做起
28届大学生凯莉·D·希金斯（Kelli D.希金斯）在她的专栏中指出，虽然哈佛大学推崇学生领导力，但往往忽视了学术——大学的真正目的。迫于在竞争环境中施加的压力，学生们可能会过度投入课外活动，而将课程置于作业次要地位。希金斯呼吁文化转型，重新以学术发展为中心，并强调哈佛的资源——而不仅仅是领导角色——才是真正为学生长期成功做好准备的因素。她认为，平衡是充分利用哈佛教育的关键。
Op Eds: Where Did All the Radicals Go?
In her op-ed, Sylvia A. Langer ’28 laments the commercialization of Harvard Square, arguing that the rise of chains and loss of local coffeehouses has eroded community spaces crucial for political discourse and activism. Drawing from history, she emphasizes that such "third places" once served as hubs for radical thought and grassroots organizing. With increasing crackdowns on campus protest and growing national instability, she urges students to reconnect with Cambridge residents and reignite collective action — just as past generations did.
专栏：激进分子都去哪儿了？
28节教程 西尔维娅·A·兰格（Sylvia A.兰格）在她的专栏文章中哀叹哈佛广场的商业化，认为连锁店的兴起和局部局部的概览消失了对政治讨论和行动主义至关重要的社区空间。她以历史为鉴，强调这些“第三空间”曾是思想和基层组织的中心。随着抗议活动受到越来越多的城镇压力，国家战争也紧急，她推动学生们与剑桥居民重新建立，重新点燃集体行动的火花联系——就像过去一代人所做的那样。
