The People of the United States, via the DOJ, seeks to recover the $2.6 billion in federal funds Harvard received while in violation of Title VI. Among the charges:
- Harvard selectively enforced its own campus rules by allowing the assaults and harassment of Jewish students to continue by students, faculty, and visitors.
- Harvard ignored its own Committee to Combat Antisemitism’s findings that Israeli and pro-Israel students were excluded from social spaces and extracurricular activities
- Harvard failed to meaningfully discipline the mobs of students who occupied buildings and terrorized Jewish students
Today, the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division filed a lawsuit against Harvard University for race and national origin discrimination against Jewish and Israeli students, in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
