The courts said they couldn't just restrict Harvard's admission of international students, so they're restricting admission of all international students.

Most elite universities in the US rely on higher fees paid by foreign students to balance their enormous budgets, and elite universities in general are trump adversaries, ergo this.

Lol, wouldn't that mean that for instance German officials can't enter the US because muricans can't go to Germany and wave swastika flags?

Good luck with that I suppose
