The Supreme Court on Thursday reinforced its order allowing the Trump administration to deport migrants to countries other than their own without a “meaningful opportunity” to raise fear-based claims of torture. The court’s action clears the way for the deportation of eight men being held in a makeshift detention center at a U.S. naval base in East Africa to conflict-ridden South Sudan. Their fate was unclear after the justices initially gave the go-ahead in late June for Trump officials to deport immigrants to t

Cutler ’87 dismissed the faculty leaders of the Center for Middle Eastern Studies on Wednesday, according to a faculty member familiar with the situation — a dramatic shakeup at a center that has come under fire for its programming on Israel and Palestine. The CMES’ director, professor of Turkish Studies Cemal Kafadar, and its associate director, History professor Rosie Bsheer, were both forced to leave their posts, according to the faculty member. Global Health professor Salmaan A. Keshavjee — the center’s interim director while Kafadar was on leave — will continue to hold his post. The departures come after the CMES has repeatedly faced public criticism from Harvard affiliates who have alleged that some of the center’s programming has been antisemitic and has failed to represent Israeli perspectives.
Harvard has dismissed the faculty leaders of its Center for Middle Eastern Studies due to the specious claim of ‘antisemitism’ for a ‘failure to represent [genocidal] Israeli perspectives.’
