Lawrence Summers: 我对哈佛大学在反犹太主义、学生纪律和观点多样化方面提出了尖锐批评。我认为哈佛大学需要进行改革,以解决这些问题。然而,特朗普政府的做法是极端且非法的,与民权法案和哈佛大学的言论自由权相悖。政府冻结资金的做法毫无意义,因为这些资金主要用于科研,而非大学内部事务。政府无权干涉大学内部的学术观点和价值观。如果政府持续打压大学,将会严重损害美国的科研进步和国家安全。美国在高等教育领域的领先地位正受到威胁。政府和大学之间需要更成熟的关系,但政府不应以牺牲科研和学生机会为代价来施压大学。总统干涉哈佛大学的税务问题是令人担忧的政治干预行为,总统干涉税务机构的行为是不可接受的,总统呼吁改变其对手的税务地位是专制行为,对民主构成威胁。特朗普政府对国税局的行动是渎职行为,对国税局的削弱导致税务遵从性问题加剧,特朗普政府破坏了税务执法的政治中立性。 David Westin: 就特朗普政府对哈佛大学采取的行动,以及政府与大学之间关系的更广泛问题,向Lawrence Summers 提出了问题,并引导讨论。

Former US Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers says there is a substantial need for Harvard University to reform in respect to antisemitism, discipline of students and widening of perspectives. Speaking to Wall Street Week Anchor David Westin, Summers says he believes there's a risk on both sides as he wants the institution to make changes but does not want the government to "order universities around."
