As Wu’s Congressional Hearing Looms, Experts See a High-Stakes Showdown
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu ’07 is set to testify before Congress regarding the city’s sanctuary policies, facing scrutiny from House Republicans who argue such policies endanger public safety. The hearing, likened to the intense questioning that led to former Harvard President Claudine Gay’s resignation, could impact Boston’s federal funding. While legal experts assert that sanctuary policies do not violate federal law, Republican lawmakers have threatened funding cuts, potentially affecting education, healthcare, and infrastructure projects. Wu has retained legal counsel to prepare, emphasizing that the city is on solid legal ground. The uncertainty over funding remains a key concern.

By William C. Mao and Veronica H. Paulus

Harvard Students Walk Out of Class To Protest Time Caps for Academic Workers
More than 200 Harvard students and faculty members protested outside University Hall against time caps that limit non-tenure-track faculty positions, as part of the Harvard Academic Workers Union-United Auto Workers' ongoing contract negotiations. The union delivered a petition with nearly 1,400 signatures demanding an end to these employment limits, but Harvard has yet to respond.

Columns: Harvard Isn’t a Trade School. It’s a Liberal Arts Institution.
By Zoe Yu. Zoe Yu ’27, a Crimson Editorial editor, is a Government concentrator in Pforzheimer House.
Harvard student Zoe Yu critiques the growing prioritization of pre-professionalism over academics, arguing that students are treating the university as a networking hub rather than a place for intellectual growth. She highlights how many students disengage from meaningful classroom discussions out of fear of challenging viewpoints or risking lower grades. Yu warns that this academic apathy leads to conformity, undermining the liberal arts education that Harvard champions. She calls for a renewed commitment to learning for its own sake, emphasizing that true education is about thinking critically, questioning beliefs, and valuing intellectual curiosity over mere career preparation.
专栏：哈佛不是一所职业学校，而是一所文理学院。
作者：Zoe Yu。Zoe Yu（27岁）是Crimson的编辑，也是Pforzheimer House的政府专业讲师。
哈佛学生佐伊·余批评高度重视职业教育是学术的现象，她认为学生不是把大学当成社交中心，而是人才成长的场所。她强调，许多学生挑战或冒着降低成绩的风险，而引发有意义的课堂讨论。警告说，这种冷酷的学术漠会导致波逐流，破坏哈佛所资助的文科教育。她没有真正强调教育是论性、争论、重视知欲、是重要的准备职业。
Editorials: Worried About Foreign Influence? Start With Trump, Not Harvard
The Crimson Editorial Board argues that congressional scrutiny of Harvard’s foreign funding is misplaced, especially given the financial challenges the University faces due to declining donations and potential federal funding cuts under the Trump administration. While acknowledging the importance of assessing donations for undue influence, the editorial contends that foreign contributions should not be rejected outright. Instead, it criticizes the hypocrisy of lawmakers who focus on Harvard while overlooking Donald Trump’s undisclosed foreign gifts during his presidency. The board calls for equal scrutiny of foreign influence in government, particularly in the White House.
社论：担心外国影响？先从特朗普开始，而不是哈佛
《深红》编辑委员会认为，国会对哈佛大学外国资助的审查是错误的，尤其是考虑到特朗普政府领导下，由于捐款减少和后续资金可能受到同样的哈佛大学的财政挑战。虽然承认评估捐款是否受到不当影响的重要性，但社会认为，不能完全拒绝外国资助。正好，批评了那些只关注哈佛而特朗普总统尊重未公开的外国报道的外国报道的虚伪。委员会呼吁政府，特别是对阿富汗的外国影响力进行审查。
Editorials Dissent: On Tyrannical Middle Eastern Regimes, the Editorial Board Wavers
The dissenting opinion argues that Harvard’s acceptance of foreign donations from repressive Middle Eastern regimes is both naive and morally indefensible. It criticizes the Crimson Editorial Board for dismissing concerns about foreign influence, highlighting donations from countries with poor human rights records like Qatar and Saudi Arabia. The piece also questions the potential impact of such funding on Harvard’s Center for Middle Eastern Studies, citing its alleged anti-Israel stance. Finally, the dissent calls out the Board’s hypocrisy in supporting the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel while remaining lenient toward oppressive Islamist regimes.
社论异议：关于中东暴政，编辑部动摇了
反对意见，哈佛接受来自中东专制的外国援军既幼稚，又在道德影响上站不住脚。它批评《深红》杂志编辑委员会无视外国的恐慌，加强紧张调整等情况不佳的国家的文章。该还质疑此类对哈佛中东研究中心的潜在影响，是该中心的反校园。最后，反对意见指出资金，该委员会支持阻止、撤回和制裁（BDS）反对叙利亚的运动，同时对叙利亚的伊斯兰保持宽容，是善意的。
Columns: Faculty Time Caps Hurt Harvard’s Students, Too
This column argues that Harvard’s time caps on non-tenure-track faculty harm not only instructors but also students by disrupting relationships, reducing teaching quality, and undermining educational consistency. The author highlights that many of Harvard’s best teachers—preceptors, lecturers, and mentors—are on limited contracts, forcing them to leave just as they gain experience and establish connections with students. Other universities, such as Michigan and Rutgers, have abandoned similar policies, and even some Harvard schools allow indefinite contract renewals. The piece calls for an end to time caps, asserting that students and faculty alike deserve better.
专栏：教师时间限制也伤害了哈佛的学生
本专栏认为，哈佛大学对非限制终身教职员工的时间不仅损害了教师的利益，也损害了学生的利益，破坏了教师与学生之间的关系，降低了教学质量，破坏了教育的一致性。作者强调，哈佛大学许多最好的教师——导师、讲师和指导教师——都完成了有限的合同，一旦他们获得了经验并与学生建立了联系后就离开。德克萨斯大学和罗格斯大学等其他大学已经放弃了类似的政策，甚至一些哈佛学院也允许无限期续签合同。要求取消时间限制，并要求学生和教师都应该得到更好的待遇。
Flyby: Would’ve, Could’ve, Should’ve: Blocking Group Names
By Carly Y. Chen, Arezoo Ghazagh, and Sneha M. Yelamanchili
This humorous column playfully critiques Harvard students’ often uninspired choices for blocking group names while offering a series of witty, alternative suggestions. From pop culture references like Jenny from the Block and New Kids on the Block to Harvard-specific puns like Blochannalia (for Lowell House hopefuls) and Johann Sebastian Block (for musically inclined students), the piece suggests students could have done better. With a mix of satire and self-awareness, the writers lament missed opportunities and encourage future students to choose more creative names—or at least consult them before making any major decisions.
飞越：本来可以、本来应该：屏蔽群组 名称
作者： Carly Y. Chen、 Arezoo Ghazagh和 Sneha M. Yelamanchili
这篇幽默的专栏文章以巧合的方式批评了佛学生通常没有灵感激发的群体名称选择，同时提供了一系列巧合、其他类的暗示。来自流行文化的引用，如来自街区的珍妮和街区的新孩子，到哈佛特有的双关语，Blochannalia（针对洛厄尔学院的希望之人）和约翰·塞巴斯蒂安·布洛克（针对音乐倾向的学生），这篇文章表明学生可以做得更好。作者将论自我意识相结合，哀叹错失的，并鼓励未来的学生选择更多创意的名字——或者至少在获得任何重大机会之前咨询他们。
Worried About the Market? Here's How Warren Buffett, Ray Dalio, and Harvard University Protect Their Portfolios - Three asset allocation recipes that can keep your investments steady.
Harvard and Yale’s massive endowments operate with a mindset focused on long-term growth and risk diversification rather than a fixed investment formula. David Swensen, who managed Yale’s endowment, transformed it by shifting away from traditional stocks and bonds toward alternative assets like venture capital, real estate, and hedge funds. This strategy, known as the "endowment model," protects against major losses by investing in assets with low correlation, ensuring stability across economic cycles. The approach allows elite universities to sustain financial health while supporting institutional goals.
