Harvard will not comply.
“No government — regardless of which party is in power — should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.”
— Harvard President Alan M. Garber

Scripps is currently searching for a VAP in American Studies for AY 2025-26. Please share widely. I’m not on the search committee but I’m happy to answer any questions about the position: www.scrippscollege.edu/hr/faculty/v...
They're actively coming after the scholars. Friends who are not US citizens, it is dangerous traveling out of the country. They will come up with any flimsy excuse not to let you back in and to deport you. Or they will kidnap you.
They are arresting people on the streets, terminating their visas, and disappearing them for writing things they disagree with. This is where we are. Two months in. Right now. If you think they won’t begin coming after citizens soon, you are mistaken.
What people in every part of higher education need to understand is that Republicans now want to do to universities what they’ve tried to do to labor unions: erase them from the institutional landscape. The question is how much you want to collaborate in your own destruction.
Over a thousand protesters gathered in Somerville, Massachusetts, on Wednesday to demand the freedom of Rumeysa Ozturk, a Tufts PhD student and Fulbright scholar abducted by ICE agents.
Ozturk is believed to have been targeted for co-authoring an opinion piece for her student newspaper about Gaza.

Tenure didn’t protect anyone at Columbia. Let this be a lesson in the need for labor solidarity across all ranks in higher ed.
Must read: Mahmoud Khalil speaks out for the first time since his arrest by the Trump administration in an exclusive letter, dictated over the phone to his family, from ICE detention in Louisiana.
From a source: “Just had a co-presenter for a buildings research conference bow out. She’s a dual citizen and the FBI came knocking to ask her about her involvement in coauthoring chunks of the Paris Agreement.
Climate science is being literally (and I mean literally) criminalized.”
"The root of alienation is insanity," Hiʻilei Hobart writes.
Part family history, part history of land rights and land tenure in Hawai‘i, @hiokinai.bsky.social's essay, "In Pieces," applies pressure to our ideas of land value + private property.
A must read:
X post by Timothy Snyder (@TimothyD ...), posted 6 hours ago. The post reads, "The people Attorney General Bondi is calling 'terrorists' have had no trial and no chance to defend them. We do not know they are. Ignoring the Constitution does not make us safe. It puts us all in peril."
I know this first hand. When I was a child, my entire community was branded as spies and sabateurs, justifying our internment inside barbed wire camps for years without due process, trial or charge.
A screenshot from a court filing reads, in part: "Julio Noriega is 54 years old, was born in Chicago, and is a U.S. citizen. On January 31, 2025, he was walking near the corner of Cermak Road and Harlem Avenue in Berwyn, Illinois, handing out his resume to local businesses. As he walked out of a Jiffy Lube, he was approached by ICE officers who grabbed and handcuffed him and put him into a van, without an opportunity to explain his citizenship. The officers drove Julio and others around for more than an hour before bringing him to an ICE processing center, where he remained, still handcuffed, for several more hours. All the while, Julio had a wallet containing identification that ICE had confiscated. The officers never showed Julio a warrant, and they did not ask him any questions to ascertain whether he was a noncitizen or a flight risk. After about 10 hours, ICE officers reviewed the contents of Julio’s wallet, realized he was a U.S. citizen, and released him with no money and no paperwork."
A US-born citizen was walking near Chicago in January. ICE snatched him off the street, handcuffed him, threw into a van. His wallet, which contained his ID, was confiscated. He was detained for 10 hours before being released without a record of what occurred.

Cover of Ice Geographies: The Colonial Politics of Race & Indigeneity in the Arctic. The cover features an abstract art piece by Darcie Bernhardt. The piece is titled Beluga Hunting and depicts a light pink, green, and blue marbled pattern. Forked green and white lines within the pattern evoke topographic striations.
"Ice Geographies" by Jen Rose Smith @sprucehen.bsky.social centers ice to critically study racialization, land dispossession, and Indigenous knowledge production about icy places, both historically and in the modern moment of climate change. Read the intro for free now! #Environment

If you're a science, mathematics, or engineering student or post-doc who is interested in supporting work for the abolition of nuclear weapons, consider applying for the Princeton School on Science and Global Security from 9-15 October 2025. Applications close 15 June. sgs.princeton.edu/school2025
They claim they can snatch people up, put them on planes, and deport them to a country run by an authoritarian, where those people will be forced to work slave labor at an inhumane prison. All without due process, and in defiance of federal courts.
The hypotheticals are over. This is the nightmare.
If they’re doing this to white, European green card holders, just imagine what they’re doing to undocumented, indigenous Central American workers www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...
Today is the last day to apply for this postdoc with me!
