| Antisemitism lawsuit against Harvard to go ahead after judge rejects request to dismiss |
| 2024-08-08 |
| [IsraelTimes] A US judge refuses to dismiss a lawsuit in which Jewish students accuse Harvard University of letting its campus become a bastion of antisemitism. Without ruling on the merits, US District Judge Richard Stearns says the plaintiffs plausibly allege that Harvard’s response to on-campus incidents is inadequate, and that "the facts as pled show that Harvard failed its Jewish students."

| #1 Jewish student populations at Harvard, Yale and Cornell were estimated to be between 20 and 25 percent, while those at Dartmouth, Princeton and Brown hovered between 13 and 20 percent. Jews now make up 9.9 percent of Harvard’s undergraduate enrollment and 12.2 percent at Yale, according to estimates on Hillel’s website. |
