Harvard Lawsuits Alleging Antisemitism Consolidated
A U.S. district judge has consolidated two lawsuits against Harvard University alleging the institution's failure to address antisemitism on campus, particularly following anti-Israel demonstrations in Fall 2023. The lawsuits, filed by Jewish students and advocacy groups, claim that Harvard violated Title VI of the Civil Rights Act by fostering a hostile educational environment. Judge Richard G. Stearns allowed the plaintiffs to pursue claims of deliberate indifference to harassment but dismissed allegations of direct discrimination and retaliation against Jewish students. Key incidents cited include a professor discouraging pro-Israel projects and protests that allegedly turned violent. The lawsuits reflect broader tensions regarding campus free speech and safety amid the Israel-Hamas conflict. A discovery deadline for the case has been set for May 23, 2025.
