Trump's war against universities has seen him threaten to cut federal funding over policies meant to encourage diversity among students and staff AFP More than 100 US universities and colleges, including Ivy League institutions Princeton and Brown, issued a joint letter on Tuesday condemning President Donald Trump's "political interference" in the education system. The move comes a day after Harvard University sued the Trump administration, which has threatened to cut funding and impose outside political supervision. "We speak with one voice against the unprecedented government overreach and political interference now endangering American higher education," the letter read.
