Rutgers University Under GOP-led House Investigation for Antisemitism

The House Education and Workforce Committee is probing Rutgers University for alleged failure to protect Jewish students, marking the school as the fifth under investigation for similar concerns.

A Republican-led House committee has launched an investigation into Rutgers University, focusing on the school's handling of antisemitism amid claims of a pervasive climate of bias.
Rutgers, known for its large Jewish student population, is scrutinized for incidents including faculty statements and student organization activities perceived as antisemitic.
The investigation targets the Rutgers-Newark Center for Security, Race and Rights, accused of promoting radical antisemitic and anti-Israel views.
Rutgers' Students for Justice in Palestine chapter was suspended last semester amid allegations of harassment and disruption on campus.
The inquiry into Rutgers follows similar probes into Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania, MIT, and Columbia University, with several resignations and subpoenas marking the investigation's progress.
