The Task Force mentioned the disruption of learning on campuses and the harassment of Jewish students as unacceptable issues that require serious attention and meaningful changes.
Further, the Task Force announced a decision to freeze $2.2 billion in multi-year grants and $60 million in multi-year contract value to Harvard University.
