""Harvard officials, already anxious about the prospect of backlash to any settlement with a president many on campus see as autocratic, are sensitive to the details of any agreement. For months, they have viewed an accord between Brown University and the Trump administration as a model," said the report. "Under that agreement, Brown agreed to spend $50 million on state workforce development programs over a decade. The university did not have to enter into a rigorous monitoring agreement, and it secured a provision that Brown leaders viewed as safeguarding academic independence." Trump kicked off his new term in office by demanding several legal agreements with groups that have opposed him in the past, including several law firms that agreed to spend millions of dollars on Trump-approved legal causes. A report in August revealed many of these law firms are now simply ignoring some provisions of the agreements."
