This action follows a complaint from the Brandeis Center and the Anti-Defamation League concerning an assault on a Jewish student. Despite UMass Amherst's quick condemnation of the attack, it has been criticized for not adequately addressing the victim's concerns. The investigation aims to ensure compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination based on national origin and heritage.
