Harvard pledges reforms following internal reports on antisemitism and anti-Arab bias
Harvard University released two internal reports on May 27, 2025, addressing antisemitism and anti-Arab prejudice on campus following protests last year.
These reports respond to documented bigotry against Jewish and Muslim students during 2024 protests and a federal scrutiny linked to admissions policies and campus climate.
University President Alan Garber pledged to review admissions, curriculum, and disciplinary procedures and advance viewpoint diversity to combat intolerance and exclusion.
The administration faces a two billion dollar federal funding freeze tied to demands from the Trump administration, which Harvard is challenging in court as a threat to academic freedom.
Harvard’s reforms and reports highlight a need for systemic change to create a safer environment, but some students remain dissatisfied and feel marginalized on campus.
