Harvard Trains Rising CCP Elites Through Partnership With Top Chinese Department, Congressional Investigation Finds
'Harvard can't hide. Garber must provide transparency,' Rep. Elise Stefanik says
July 30, 2025
A congressional investigation has uncovered new ties between Harvard University and the Chinese Communist Party, including the school's years-long role in training rising CCP elites, three top Republicans revealed Wednesday.
Reps. John Moolenaar (Mich.), Tim Walberg (Mich.), and Elise Stefanik (N.Y.)—who chair the Select Committee on the CCP, the Committee on Education and Workforce, and House Republican Leadership, respectively—told Harvard president Alan Garber in a letter obtained by the Washington Free Beacon that whistleblowers detailed the Ivy League university's partnerships with CCP entities, which have been in place for at least a decade.
One such partnership is a collaboration between the Harvard Kennedy School and the Chinese Executive Leadership Academy Pudong. That institution is controlled by the Central Organization Department, one of the most powerful bodies within the CCP. It oversees the "Xi Jinping Thought" training program for party elites and controls placement in key CCP leadership roles.
