Harvard President Takes Serious Swipe At Trump Without Saying His Name At Commencement
HuffPost
Alan Garber got a massive ovation from thousands of graduates in attendance and reportedly upset the White House in the process.
Harvard University President Alan Garber took a not-so-subtle jab at President Donald Trump on Thursday as his administration continues to pile on its attacks toward the Ivy League institution.
Garber — who has previously ripped the administration’s “perplexing” approach to federal funding cuts — used his welcoming remarks at the university’s commencement ceremony to knock Trump without saying his name.
“Members of the Class of 2025 from down the street, across the country and around the world,” said Garber, who was initially met with a minute-long wave of cheers and applause when he graced the stage.
He went on to stress, “Around the world, just as it should be.”
His comments — which got a roaring ovation from the thousands of graduates and Harvard community members in attendance — appeared to be a swipe at the administration’s push to bar the university from enrolling foreign students, a plan that was blocked by a federal judge.
