The Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights concluded that Temple University failed to adequately respond to incidents of harassment related to shared ancestry, including antisemitism.
Despite taking some proactive measures, Temple's actions did not meet federal obligations outlined in Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, particularly regarding hostile environments.
Temple University is required to assess past complaints more thoroughly and implement a new annual campus climate survey to foster a welcoming atmosphere.
The case, which stemmed from a complaint by Campus Reform about discrimination against Jewish students, underscores the scrutiny universities face in addressing campus harassment.
