Antisemitism At Harvard University and Harvard Law School

From The Volokh Conspiracy: Antisemitism Lawsuit Filed against Harvard University, Includes Allegations re Harvard Law School

Harvard has a problem with antisemitism. That hasn't changed just because the president of the university has resigned. As president. She is still a professor.

As in previous complaints related to university antisemitism, I find that the strongest claims are that (a) the university refuses to enforce its own, content-neutral, rules (In this context, for example, I can't see any legitimate reason for HLS to allow pro-Hamas students to take over Casperson lounge); and (b) the university reacts quite differently to complaints of antisemitism than it does to complaints of other sorts of bias, resulting in disparate treatment of Jewish students.

One teaching assistant assaulted a Jewish student at an "event."

At the time of this filing, Bharmal has faced no discipline for his assault—he is still a Harvard Law student, still on the Harvard Law Review, and still employed by Harvard as a teaching fellow.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
