Kristi Noem: 作为国土安全部部长，我认为哈佛大学未能谴责反犹太主义，并且可能与其他对美国怀有敌意的国家或实体有联系。因此，我们阻止哈佛大学招收国际学生，并警告其他大学需要采取行动，确保学生在一个安全且免受歧视的环境中学习。反犹主义是不能容忍的，我们将阻止任何与憎恨美国并 perpetuates 这种暴力的国家、实体或恐怖组织合作的行为。 Larry Summers: 作为哈佛大学前校长，我认为特朗普政府的这一举动是对民主原则的公然侵犯，简直是暴政。哈佛大学应该抵制这种暴政，否则其他美国机构将无法做到。如果哈佛大学都无法抵制这种暴政，我不知道还有哪个美国机构可以做到。 Roslyn Matheson: 作为彭博社的记者，我认为特朗普政府要求哈佛大学提供学生信息，因为他们指控哈佛大学在学生和校园内营造了反犹太主义的氛围。如果哈佛大学在 72 小时内不提供信息，他们将无法招收国际学生，这将对哈佛大学产生重大影响。除了哈佛大学，哥伦比亚大学也可能成为目标。这关系到美国吸引聪明人进行科学研究、创新和为美国经济做出贡献的能力。学术界人士和学生是否会选择去其他地方？美国是否会逐渐失去优势？
