Judge Rules Antisemitism Lawsuit Against Harvard Will Proceed to Trial on August 6, 2024
Aug 6, 2024, 03:58 PM
On August 6, 2024, a judge ruled that a lawsuit against Harvard University, alleging failure to protect Jewish students from antisemitism, will proceed to trial. This decision follows Harvard's unsuccessful motion to dismiss the case. The lawsuit claims that Harvard's response to antisemitism was 'so lax, so misdirected, or so poorly executed as to be clearly unreasonable under the known circumstances.' The ruling was made by a respected progressive federal judge, Stearns, who previously dismissed a similar lawsuit against MIT. This marks a step towards holding Harvard accountable for its actions.
