The HHS has identified Harvard University as violating Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 for its alleged negligence towards discrimination against Jewish and Israeli students. This follows a similar case against Columbia University and aligns with the Trump administration's efforts to enforce compliance in Ivy League schools. The findings are supported by a report from Harvard's own task force, highlighting serious instances of on-campus antisemitism. Harvard disputes these claims, asserting its commitment to addressing such discrimination with strengthened policies and disciplinary actions.
Reports of Jewish and Israeli students being spit on in the face for wearing a yarmulke, stalked on campus, and jeered by peers with calls of 'Heil Hitler' went unheeded by Harvard administration.
In responding to the government's investigation, Harvard not only shared its comprehensive and retrospective Antisemitism and Anti-Israeli Bias Report but also outlined the ways that it has strengthened policies.
