First Report

📚 Harvard’s New Policy

In a pivotal shift, Harvard University declared it will abstain from commenting on public matters unrelated to its “core function.” This decision follows a period marked by significant controversy, including the resignation of its first Black president, Claudine Gay. The new stance, advocated by a working group formed in April, aims to maintain the university’s integrity by focusing solely on issues that directly impact its academic freedom and autonomy. 🏛️

TL;DR ⏳: Harvard will now only address public issues that directly impact its educational and operational mandate.

📱 T-Mobile Expands Reach

T-Mobile has announced a massive $4.4 billion acquisition of U.S. Cellular’s wireless operations, including customers, stores, and a significant portion of its spectrum assets. This strategic move is expected to enhance T-Mobile’s network coverage and comes after U.S. Cellular’s exploration of strategic options last year. U.S. Cellular will retain 70% of its spectrum and remain a key player with ownership over thousands of telecom towers, with T-Mobile becoming a major tenant. 🛜 💵

TL;DR ⏳: T-Mobile is set to acquire U.S. Cellular’s operations for $4.4 billion, aiming to boost service coverage and efficiency without affecting its 2024 financial outlook.
