Trump is demanding Harvard become a vassal institution. There will be no free speech or academic freedom rights, and there will be ideological litmus tests for who gets hired or admitted.
Not only do these demands ignore the process for adjudicating alleged Title VI violations, they are fundamentally at odds with the First Amendment.
The feds cannot condition federal funding on a private university giving up its First Amendment rights.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
