A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by Yoav Segev, a Harvard Business School graduate, who alleged he was assaulted for being Jewish and that Harvard University mishandled the incident. The judge found no evidence that the attack was motivated by anti-Jewish hate, noting that Segev's visible support for Israel did not clearly indicate the motive of the assailants. The court also concluded that Harvard did not promise disciplinary action and fail to deliver, and that Segev's dissatisfaction with the university's response did not amount to legal wrongdoing. The ruling comes amid broader scrutiny of Harvard's handling of antisemitism and ongoing disputes with the federal government over research funding and campus policies.
