Ross Stevens, CEO of Stone Ridge Asset Management, has withdrawn a $100 million donation to the University of Pennsylvania over President Liz Magill's handling of antisemitism. The decision was prompted by the university's permissive approach to hate speech calling for violence against Jews. This has led to an emergency meeting of the board of trustees and calls for Magill's resignation. The Wharton Board of Advisors has also demanded a leadership change at the university. Lawmakers are pressuring Harvard, MIT, and Penn to remove their presidents over responses to antisemitism hearings.
