Harvard University has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration claiming that its freezing of federal grants worth billions of dollars is unlawful.
Its president, Alan M Garber, announced the action on Monday in a letter to the university community which said the $2 billion funding freeze would hamper critical disease research.
Harvard, the world's richest university, last week rejected a list of demands that the Trump administration said was designed to curb diversity initiatives and fight anti-semitism at the school.
In response to the lawsuit, the White House said the "gravy train of federal assistance" was coming to an end.
Funding cuts have also been implemented at other elite universities, and a new government anti-semitism task force has identified at least 60 universities for review.
President Donald Trump has accused universities of failing to protect Jewish students during last year's campus protests against the war in Gaza and US support for Israel.
In Monday's letter, Mr Garber – who is himself Jewish – said: "The consequences of the government's overreach will be severe and long-lasting."
Studies on pediatric cancer, Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease would be affected, he wrote.
"In recent weeks, the federal government has launched a broad attack on the critical funding partnerships that make this invaluable research possible," the school's lawsuit said.
It said the withholding of federal funding violated Harvard's constitutional rights and was being used as "leverage to gain control of academic decision making at Harvard".
The Trump administration has signaled that another $1billion of federal funding could be suspended. Harvard receives about $9 billion in total annually, which is mostly spent on research.
Harvard's tax exemption status and its ability to enroll international students could also be under threat.

My fit, 59-year-old wife Nina spends most of her days training. I have a lot of trouble keeping up with her. She has a great body - both tits and ass - and likes to show it off.

Trumputo es un sabelo todo y entiendelo nada. For his convenience of course. Even Melania has a prenuptial.
Trump needs to concentrate on fixing the mess he’s created. Leave the universities and colleges alone.
Let the free press do its work. You are not a king.
Hell no. Trump needs to tweak all systems, organizations and institutions. Nobody gets a break.
A prenuptial that she is always amending.
Trumputo needs to go, bring him to boca chica and launch him in or on, one of those rockets that never returns...
He's not telling them how or what to teach. He wants Harvard stop being antisemites like you, Montoya.
Only gringos get those awful sicknesses....pinches mugrosos y apestosos...FACT
9:45 Add corporate welfare to your gravy train of federal assistance. Tax subsidies, tax loopholes and no federal taxes. Must be nice.
