  Presidents of more than 150 U.S. colleges and universities, including six in Pennsylvania, co-signed a letter condemning what they called "unprecedented government overreach and political interference" by the federal government.

In an article from TribLIVE, college presidents from various Pennsylvania institutions, including Chatham University, Washington & Jefferson College, and Westminster College, have publicly condemned what they describe as "unprecedented government overreach" by the Trump administration. This criticism stems from a new federal rule that requires international students to leave the U.S. if their courses are entirely online, a policy seen as detrimental to the educational and cultural diversity of their campuses. The presidents argue that this rule not only jeopardizes the safety and well-being of international students during the ongoing global health crisis but also undermines the contributions these students make to their academic communities. They are calling for the rule to be rescinded and for a more inclusive approach that supports all students, regardless of their country of origin.
