Jewish groups at the University of Pennsylvania have raised concerns after federal authorities requested personal information about Jewish staff as part of an investigation into antisemitism on campus. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission sued the university's trustees for refusing to comply with a subpoena, seeking details about Jewish employees to determine if a hostile work environment existed. The university cited confidentiality and only provided limited information, while Jewish organizations expressed unease about the collection of Jewish individuals' data, referencing historical dangers associated with such practices. The groups support efforts to address antisemitism but insist that privacy and safety must not be compromised.
