Pentagon chief blocks officers from Ivy League schools and top universities

4 hours ago

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is overhauling military education programs, cutting ties with certain universities.
Ivy League schools like Harvard, MIT, Yale, and others are removed from the approved list for military fellowships.
Hegseth criticizes these institutions for being 'anti-American' and not aligning with military values.
New partner schools include Liberty University, George Mason University, and others.
Some banned schools, like Carnegie Mellon and Johns Hopkins, have key military partnerships in AI and space education.
The change coincides with the Trump administration shifting AI partnerships from Anthropic to OpenAI and xAI.
