Federal judge sides against Jewish students who sued UPenn over antisemitism

  • A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed in December 2023 against the University of Pennsylvania alleging mishandling of antisemitism complaints by students.
  • The suit stemmed from allegations that tensions rose after the September 2023 Palestine Writes Literature Festival and the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel increased antisemitic incidents on campus.
  • Plaintiffs claimed Penn tolerated antisemitic incidents that created a hostile environment, causing some to miss classes, feel unsafe, and hide Jewish identities, while the university responded with plans including a task force.
  • Judge Mitchell S. Goldberg noted some remarks could be seen as intended harm and allowed plaintiffs to refile on certain counts, while the U.S. Department of Education dropped its own antisemitism investigation last year citing overlapping claims.
  • The dismissal highlights ongoing national concerns about antisemitism on campuses amid increased incidents linked to Middle East conflicts and calls for stronger policies to protect Jewish students.
