Harvard University is under scrutiny for its alleged failure to adequately respond to a congressional subpoena regarding antisemitism on its campus, leading to accusations of obstructing the antisemitism investigation. The House Committee on Education and the Workforce, led by Chairwoman Rep. Virginia Foxx, has criticized the institution for its unsatisfactory production of documents and lack of cooperation, highlighting a failure to protect Jewish students from harassment, intimidation, and violence. Statements from Foxx, Rep. Elise Stefanik, and Rep. Burgess Owens suggest negligence and possible "deep, deep legal trouble" for Harvard. The university's actions, including a "useless submission" to the committee, have been described as shameful. This situation has led to a broader examination of antisemitism in educational institutions, as evidenced by a similar lawsuit filed against MIT.
