A federal judge in Massachusetts has once again intervened to block an attempt by the Trump administration to restrict international students from enrolling at Harvard University.

US District Judge Allison Burroughs, based in Boston, delivered her ruling on Monday. The preliminary injunction safeguards the ability of foreign students to enter the United States and pursue their academic goals at Harvard, pending the outcome of the case.

This legal decision is another chapter in the ongoing battle between the federal government and higher education institutions over the rights and mobility of international students.
