The Trump administration isn’t playing games when it comes to national security—and now, Berklee College of Music is the latest school to feel the heat. Three students at the elite Boston institution have had their visas revoked and student statuses terminated, joining a growing list of Massachusetts schools under federal scrutiny.
While Berklee claims it wasn’t given advance notice or a reason, the message from Washington is loud and clear: schools can’t turn a blind eye when it comes to who they’re letting in—and what they’re supporting. As radical groups continue to push dangerous agendas, including support for terrorist organizations that have kidnapped American citizens, the Trump administration is drawing a line in the sand.
With eight colleges in Massachusetts already caught in the dragnet, the move marks a broader national trend of accountability in higher education. No more safe spaces for those international students justifying the violence of America’s enemies.
Trump is making it clear—if you’re here on a visa and you’re supporting violence and backing the wrong side, you’re out.
