U.S. President Donald Trump said Tuesday that his administration is nearing a deal with Harvard University to resolve a months-long standoff.
U.S. President Donald Trump said that Harvard University will pay $500 million as part of a deal with his administration, after months of negotiations.
“We're in the process of getting very close, and Linda's finishing up the final details, and they'd be paying about $500 million and they'll be operating trade schools. They're going to be teaching people how to do AI and lots of other things, engines, lots of things,” Trump said at an Oval Office event, referring to Education Secretary Linda McMahon.
“This would be a giant trade school, series of trade schools. It would be run by Harvard. Now, this is something that we're close to finalising. We haven't done it yet,” he added, signalling that completion of the agreement would put an end to Harvard’s disputes with the administration. “Their sins are forgiven,” Trump said.
The administration has reached similar settlements with Columbia and Brown universities, which agreed to comply with certain government demands.
