Harvard University is under scrutiny for its handling of antisemitism on campus, with accusations of inadequate response. Representatives, including Rep. Stefanik and Rep. Carlos, have condemned @Harvard for not taking stronger action against antisemitic incidents, such as protests and the invitation of controversial speakers. The @EdWorkforceCmte highlighted a recent example of antisemitic protests, criticizing the administration for its endorsement through inaction. Furthermore, Harvard students have been reported to participate in intermittent fasting in honor of Hamas, adding to the controversy. Amidst this, antisemitic posters have appeared on campus, though it is not clear who is responsible. The issue extends beyond Harvard, as Columbia University and other Ivy League institutions face investigations for their handling of similar incidents.
The "banned" @ColumbiaSJP chapter held an unauthorized protest on campus, shouting "There is no safe place, DEATH to the Zionist State!" among other genocidal chants. @Columbia prof @ShaiDavidai says Columbia KNEW about the protest in advance & did nothing. https://t.co/9tKAhFaQB7 https://t.co/sEJkgMKfbg
The appearance of antisemitic and anti-Palestinian posters on Harvard’s campus and a string of poster vandalisms have caused controversy on a campus already divided since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel. @mnamponsah and @joycekim324 report. https://t.co/423xZY4VHe
Protesters disrupted a talk at New York’s Jewish Museum earlier this week to demonstrate against an exhibition of drawings by Israeli artist Zoya Cherkassky about the October 7 Hamas attack. https://t.co/9sUiFkRmQv
Antisemitism at Harvard isn’t going away. Once again, we are seeing the university’s leadership facilitate the spread of antisemitism on their campus rather than condemn it. https://t.co/oWLx883sp0
Amid rash of vandalism, New York art world grapples with divide on Israel-Hamas war. https://t.co/A5fc71X9mg
Antisemitic posters appear at #Harvard - not clear who is responsible, but clear who is targeted. https://t.co/T0J7VbaqaQ
Harvard students are intermittent fasting in honour of Hamas…the terror group they glorified for the Oct 7th atrocity. https://t.co/JS5G2WaND4
Columbia University is the latest university under investigation for its handling of antisemitism. Other Ivy League universities under investigation include Harvard University, the University of Pennsylvania and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology https://t.co/BBWBUSljWF
Students for Justice in Palestine @Columbia are very clear: “We don’t want two states - we want all of it”. Another day, another unapproved demonstration with hate speech. 📹Brave student @EylonALevy @ShaiDavidai @Omer_Lubi @ShanyGranot @EllaTravelsLove @ShirionOrg https://t.co/hQzCYqV0FX
The latest example of antisemitic protests happening at Harvard. Instead of acknowledging and combating hate on its campus, Harvard's administration is endorsing it by doing nothing to stop it and obstructing the Committee's investigation. Video: @ShabbosK https://t.co/Tr2Ke7AtI9
🚨NEW: I entirely CONDEMN the latest displays of anti-Semitic hate by the pro-Hamas mob at Harvard. Claudine Gay may no longer be the University President, but @Harvard is continuing to FAIL its students by allowing this hate to strangle the institution. https://t.co/WfqLrvk4D3
Only a university as tone-deaf & dishonorable as @harvard could promise to clean up its rampant antisemitism problem while at the same time inviting @FranceskAlbs - who just justified Hamas’ October 7 slaughter - to talk about human rights. https://t.co/oO0D5Lqqis https://t.co/7wL1oxtiT1 https://t.co/hBZitSdvLN
.@Harvard still refuses to address the rot of antisemitism on campus & only further emphasizes the need for @EdWorkforceCmte's investigation. https://t.co/DPZbayMcJN
