Harvard Promises Changes After Reports on Antisemitism and Islamophobia

A Harvard task force released reports on antisemitism and anti-Arab, anti-Muslim, and anti-Palestinian bias on campus, finding widespread discomfort and alienation among affected students. The reports come at a time when Harvard is being scrutinized by the Trump administration over accusations of antisemitism. The university has sued the administration in hopes of restoring funding. In response to the reports, Harvard's president apologized for the problems and promised to address them, stating that Harvard 'cannot -- and will not -- abide bigotry.' The reports found that antisemitism had infiltrated coursework, social life, faculty hiring, and certain academic programs, while Muslim, Arab, and Palestinian students felt 'abandoned and silenced.'
