Democrat for governor Jay Gonzalez said his plan to tax the endowments of wealthy private universities should not inhibit schools like Harvard University from funding research and financial aid, two reasons Democrats like U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren opposed the idea when President Donald Trump offered it last year.
An all-male so-called "final club" at Harvard College has decided not to allow female undergraduates to join, reversing a decision to let females in and thus escape penalties Harvard is threatening.
The Fox Club is one of several private social clubs associate with the school that historically allowed in only male undergraduates. But Harvard is cracking down on single-sex organizations, threatening their members with sanctions such as not being able to serve as captain of an undergraduate sports team and not being eligible to get an endorsement from the school to apply for a Rhodes scholarship.
