The decision by the prestigious Davis Polk law firm to rescind job offers to Harvard and Columbia students over their pro-Hamas stance has sparked a widespread debate on accountability and freedom of speech on college campuses. The students were part of over 30 Harvard student groups that posted an anti-Israel letter, which led to their doxxing. The controversy has been fueled by prominent academics signing a letter justifying violent struggle against Israel and over 70 Harvard academics calling for condemnation of harassment towards students supporting Palestinian liberation. University leaders are now re-evaluating their roles as moral arbiters in response to the increasing anti-Israel sentiments, campus demonstrations, and threats to university donations.
