Harvard hires conservative lawyers to fight Trump administration | JQJO

Harvard University has assembled a team of prominent conservative lawyers to defend itself against a lawsuit from the Trump administration. This high-profile legal team, including a former Texas solicitor general and former clerks to Justice Clarence Thomas, contrasts with Harvard's previous approach. The university is facing demands to eliminate certain professors and ban international students who oppose 'American values'. This legal battle marks a significant shift from Harvard's previous defense of affirmative action.
