Why Harvard is under fire for erasing its DEI presence and what it means for US students

Harvard University has removed several Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) webpages and renamed its central DEI office amid rising federal pressure in the US. This digital purge affects support for women, LGBTQ+ students, and students of colour, raising concerns over funding, programming, and transparency. The university has yet to clarify the future of identity-based support, prompting widespread debate about its commitment to marginalised students and the broader impact on US higher education.
