U.S. Department of Education Opens Antisemitism Investigations at Multiple Universities

Over 50 investigations have been launched since the October Hamas attack, with the latest probes targeting the University of Minnesota, Temple University, and Brown University.

The U.S. Department of Education has opened antisemitism investigations at the University of Minnesota, Temple University, Brown University, and other institutions.
The investigations were triggered by complaints about anti-Israel protests and statements condemning Israel by faculty members.
Richard Painter, a law professor at the University of Minnesota, and Zachary Marschall, a professor at the University of Kentucky, are among those who filed the complaints.
More than 50 Title VI “shared ancestry” investigations have been opened since the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel.
The Department of Education is also investigating two large Bay Area public school districts where families have cited antisemitism concerns.
