Affected by Trump's decision to bar international students from enrolling at Harvard? Share your thoughts with The Globe
Harvard's foreign students must now transfer schools or lose their legal status. However, on May 23, a U.S. judge blocked the Trump administration's decision while it hears a lawsuit filed by Harvard, who claims the move violates the First Amendment.
If the decision stands, it would have an impact on more than 5,000 foreign students from over 100 countries who attend Harvard. One university website found that approximately 500 to 800 Canadians are part of the student body at Harvard in a given year.
The Globe wants to hear from you about how the Trump Administration's decision on international students could affect you or someone you know. Are you an international student at a U.S. college or university? A concerned parent planning their child's future education? Is this making you reconsider pursuing postsecondary education in the U.S.?

Trump tells Schumer to ‘go to hell' as U.S. Senate attempts to strike deal on nominees fail
Hours after U.S. President Donald Trump told Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer to 'go to hell' in a Saturday post on social media, the Senate was poised to head into recess following failed attempts to reach a deal over confirming Trump's nominees. Senate Republican leader John Thune, Schumer and the White House had been engaged in a round of intense talks to end the standoff so senators could return to their home states, sources briefed on the conversations told CNN. Schumer had requested federal funds be released and that Trump agree not to push another legislative package that would slash federal funding, sources told CNN. But, on social media, Trump called Schumer's demands 'egregious and unprecedented,' a sign that talks had collapsed. Trump had wanted the Senate to confirm his nominees even if that meant skipping the August recess. On the Senate floor Saturday night, Thune asked for unanimous consent for the chamber to vote on a handful of nominations and then break for a month. Democrats had been slow-walking Trump's lower-level nominees, forcing Thune to keep the Senate in session this weekend to confirm them. In the minority, Democrats have the power to force Thune to jump over time-consuming hurdles before they can vote. Schumer made several demands to agree to let a batch of nominations be quickly confirmed by the Senate, according to the sources. The demands included the unfreezing of federal funds for an array of programs, including the National Institutes of Health and foreign aid. Schumer also wanted Trump to agree that he won't attempt to push through another package to slash federal funding known as 'rescissions' — after a US$9 billion package to codify some cuts was approved earlier this summer. 'Tell Schumer, who is under tremendous political pressure from within his own party, the Radical Left Lunatics, to GO TO HELL!' Trump wrote Saturday. 'Do not accept the offer, go home and explain to your constituents what bad people the Democrats are, and what a great job the Republicans are doing, and have done, for our Country. Have a great RECESS.'

U.S. Senate confirms former Fox News host Pirro as D.C. top federal prosecutor
Interim U.S. Attorney General for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro, listening to President Donald Trump speaks, during her swearing in ceremony, Wednesday, May 28, 2025, in Washington. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci) WASHINGTON — The U.S. Senate has confirmed former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro as the top federal prosecutor for the nation's capital, filling the post after President Donald Trump withdrew his controversial first pick, conservative activist Ed Martin Jr. Pirro, a former county prosecutor and elected judge, was confirmed 50-45. Before becoming the acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia in May, she co-hosted the Fox News show 'The Five' on weekday evenings, where she frequently interviewed Trump. Trump yanked Martin's nomination after a key Republican senator said he could not support him due to Martin's outspoken support for rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. Martin now serves as the Justice Department's pardon attorney. In 2021, voting technology company Smartmatic USA sued Fox News, Pirro and others for spreading false claims that the company helped 'steal' the 2020 presidential election from Trump. The company's libel suit, filed in a New York state court, sought $2.7 billion from the defendants. Last month, Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee voted unanimously to send Pirro's nomination to the Senate floor after Democrats walked out to protest Emil Bove's nomination to become a federal appeals court judge. Pirro, a 1975 graduate of Albany Law School, has significantly more courtroom experience than Martin, who had never served as a prosecutor or tried a case before taking office in January. She was elected as a judge in New York's Westchester County Court in 1990 before serving three terms as the county's elected district attorney. In the final minutes of his first term as president, Trump issued a pardon to Pirro's ex-husband, Albert Pirro, who was convicted in 2000 on conspiracy and tax evasion charges.
