Harvard announces new restrictions on statements about 'controversial public policy issues'
Fox News
Harvard announced on Tuesday that it would refrain from taking public positions on issues that “do not directly affect the university’s core function."
"There will be close cases where reasonable people disagree about whether a given issue is or is not directly related to the core function of the university," the report stated. "The university’s policy in those situations should be to err on the side of avoiding official statements." Lindsay Kornick is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.

These guidelines would likely apply to administrators, deans, board members and faculty councils.
