US president says ‘Linda is finishing up the details’ but not clear whether university ready to announce agreement
Donald Trump said on Tuesday that his administration had reached a deal with Harvard and that the school would pay $500m to settle the dispute between the federal government and the university.
“Linda is finishing up the final details,” Trump told reporters at an event in the Oval Office, referring to Linda McMahon, the education secretary. “And they’ll be paying about $500m and they’ll be operating trade schools. They’re going to be teaching people how to do AI and lots of other things, engines, lots of things.”
