Harvard University

Harvard University has been ranked the world's best in 16 STEM subjects, according to a new subject-by-subject assessment. The result underlines the university's dominance in science, technology, engineering and mathematics education, though rankings like this always prompt debate among academics and rival institutions about methodology.

Norman Finkelstein, in an interview, takes issue with Harvard's antisemitism inquiry, which stated that Israeli Jewish students "don't feel wanted" on campus and that Harvard must be inclusive to correct for antisemitism. Finkelstein responds that he supports inclusivity but challenges the framing of the inquiry's findings. The remarks touch on the ongoing controversy over antisemitism, campus climate and the treatment of Jewish students at elite US universities.
