We will continue to fight for our constitutional rights for students, faculty, workers and all of society. When we fight we win. And as the court affirmed today, we cannot and must not be punished for the fight. That is un-American. Full ruling: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

We’ll be rallying at the Moakley Courthouse in Boston today from noon to 2:30 and can’t wait to see MA-based Harvard alums there, as well as faculty and students, many representing their unions. Here’s some background on today’s hearing from The NY Times. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/21/u...

Today, the Harvard Crimson reported that the Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences (FAS) has “replaced” its diversity offices. www.thecrimson.com/article/2025... We are deeply concerned by and have sent this letter to the Harvard President and Fellows: www.crimsoncourage.com/letter-to-ha....

With deepest thanks to Dr. Doug Hendren A.B.‘73, here’s a musical expression of Crimson Courage that connects the current moment to the late ‘60’s protests on campus by invoking Bob Dylan. Thank you, Doug! youtu.be/lZOnWxT-t-Y?...

Crimson Courage statement on the resignation of UVA President James E. Ryan is on crimsoncourage.com. Excerpt: "Ryan’s resignation is a clarion call not only for Harvard, but for all universities to stand together against government interference and to fight for...democracy in higher education."

Robert Reich says “A deal with Trump would be a surrender if Harvard agrees to even a smidgeon of government oversight over who’s hired or admitted or what’s taught. Even negotiating with Trump gives his demands a degree of legitimacy he should never have.” robertreich.substack.com/p/how-not-to...

There are some thoughtful pieces coming out about what negotiation with the administration might mean for Harvard. We think this is a particularly good one by Steven Levitsky and Ryan Enos in The Crimson. www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

“Harvard’s status as a global leader in higher education would be decimated if Harvard were to compromise on these ideals,” Crimson Courage wrote. “We cannot stand for ‘veritas’ if we refuse to stand up for truth when the moment demands it or if we dilute our values because it is expedient.”

Harvard must continue to protect its constitutional rights and academic freedom.

This morning, we sent a letter to the President and Fellows of Harvard University, the Harvard Alumni Association, and the Deans of all 12 Harvard schools urging them to resist compromising our values or integrity in any deal with the administration. Read it: www.crimsoncourage.com/letter-to-ha...

Fellow Harvard alumni: our alma mater is under attack. The government is threatening its independence, cutting research funding, and undermining free inquiry. We've added our names to an amicus brief defending Harvard’s values and freedoms. Join us here: bit.ly/HarvardAmicusBrief Please share!

Mark Dyen...said that he has never been prouder to be an alumnus. “Harvard stood up for itself, for us, for higher education and democracy,” he said as he passed out stickers. “And by doing so, it created space for people who are more vulnerable.” #AcademicFreedom #harvard #democracy
