HHS Finds Harvard in Violation of Title IX Over Antisemitism on Campus

If there aren’t some long faces around Harvard Yard this morning, there ought to be. On Monday, Education Secretary Linda McMahon took to her official X account to announce that the Health & Human Services has found Harvard University in violation of Title IX due to indifference – I would argue tacit support of – overt acts of antisemitism on campus.

The attached document states in part:

Today, the Joint Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism is notifying you that the Office for Civil Rights at the United States Department of Health and Human Services has concluded its Title IX investigation regarding anti-Semitism at Harvard University. After a thorough investigation, HHS OCR finds that Harvard University is in violent violation of Title IX of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, and national origin.

They are in violent violation, no less, as befits a case where there have been acts of violence.

In a White House press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt presented more details.

Some examples from that statement:

The majority of Jewish students reported that they experienced negative bias or discrimination…while a quarter of Jewish students at Harvard felt physically unsafe… 

Jewish and Israeli students were assaulted and spit on… 

They hid their kippahs for fear of being harassed… 

Images were widely circulated…including one that showed a dollar sign inside of a star of David… 

Vandalized with anti-Semitic stickers including one that showed the Israeli flag with a swastika… 

Violent protests that violated the university’s rules of conduct… 

The demonstrations called for genocide and murder, denied Jewish and Israeli students access to campus spaces…

This is horrific and shocking behavior for an institution that is, supposedly, an elite establishment of education – or, it was. And this isn’t the only such Ivy League/elite university where such unforgivable behavior is taking place.
