‘Sheer uncertainty and panic’: Harvard student body co-president on Trump admin. attacks

International Harvard students say they are experiencing “pure panic” amid the Trump administration’s move to bar foreign enrollment, as students from around the world told CNN they are coming to grips with the possibility of revoked visas, suspended research and being blocked from reentry to the United States if they leave this summer.

A federal judge temporarily halted the Trump administration’s ban on Friday, after the nation’s oldest and wealthiest college filed a suit in federal court. Harvard argued revocation of its certification in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program was “clear retaliation” for its refusal of the government’s ideologically rooted policy demands.

CNN’s Victor Blackwell spoke with Harvard student body co-president Abdullah Shahid Sial, who is from Lahore, Pakistan, and CNN’s Fredricka Whitfield spoke with Harvard Law professor emeritus Laurence Tribe.
