Trump probably felt Barron was passed over for a DEI applicant or foreign student visa holder.

Yes Trump wants NO foreign students in US universities. Only American white males.

If Harvard and other Ivy League schools are so liberal, why would IT want his son to go there?

I find this unlikely...Melania essentially moved back to New York to coddle Barron at NYU

Don't most colleges look at a student's extra curiculars too? Barron doesn't strike me as having much interest in life.

Yep. His vendetta against Harvard likely has personal roots. It's how he works
