President Donald Trump is threatening to strip Harvard of $3 billion in critical research dollars and redirect the money to trade schools unless the university complies with his executive orders dealing with campus policies and practices.

It鈥檚 a bully tactic that puts at risk both scientific progress and free speech, and one the president should end. But the second part of his threat, to shift more federal grant money to trade schools throughout the country, is a solid idea, and one that could be implemented without weakening the nation鈥檚 leadership position in science and research.
