Federal Judge Orders UCLA to Protect Jewish Students' Rights

University must devise a plan ensuring equal campus access and safety following pro-Palestinian protests

A federal judge has mandated UCLA to collaborate with Jewish students to create a court-enforceable plan for equal campus access.
The ruling follows a lawsuit by three Jewish students alleging discrimination and restricted access due to pro-Palestinian encampments.
UCLA has until August 5 to submit the plan, which aims to safeguard Jewish students' rights and ensure their safety on campus.
The university has faced criticism for its handling of the protests, with claims of antisemitic behavior and inadequate response measures.
UCLA asserts its commitment to fostering an inclusive environment and addressing antisemitism in all forms.
