Trump Officials Warn 60 Colleges of Possible Antisemitism Penalties

Trump Officials Warn 60 Colleges of Possible Antisemitism Penalties
SHARE

The Trump administration has issued warnings to 60 universities about potential penalties stemming from investigations into antisemitism on college campuses. This threat has been amplified by recent events, including the withholding of funding from Columbia University and the arrest of a protest leader at the institution.

The list of universities under scrutiny includes a mix of schools from both Republican- and Democratic-leaning states. It encompasses prestigious Ivy League institutions like Brown and Yale, public universities such as Arizona State University and the University of Tennessee, and smaller colleges like Muhlenberg College in Pennsylvania.

President Trump has made combating antisemitism a focal point of his administration, using it as a tool to criticize Democrats. The definition of antisemitism and its application to protests against Israel have sparked debates on college campuses, even among Jewish students who participate in such demonstrations.

Last week, Trump threatened to withdraw funding from schools that permit “illegal protests,” though he did not clarify what constitutes an illegal protest.

The administration recently revoked $400 million in federal funding from Columbia University, citing the school’s alleged failure to address ongoing harassment of Jewish students. This decision followed the establishment of a new antisemitism task force by Trump, which initiated a comprehensive review of Columbia’s federal contracts and grants.

In a controversial move, the administration utilized a little-known legal statute to detain and attempt to deport a Columbia graduate who led protests on campus. However, a federal judge intervened to prevent his immediate removal from the United States.

During a confirmation hearing for Education Secretary Linda McMahon, Senator Bill Cassidy pressed her on the backlog of antisemitism investigations within the department. McMahon pledged to prioritize the resolution of these cases, leading to the announcement that the department would expedite its efforts in addressing antisemitism allegations.

As of now, there are ongoing investigations into religious discrimination at 40 of the 60 universities targeted by the administration. Federal funding for colleges is contingent on strict adherence to anti-discrimination laws, according to McMahon, who expressed concern over the safety of Jewish students on elite campuses.

The Education Department has vowed to address the issue of antisemitism on college campuses and ensure that Jewish students can study without fear of discrimination or harassment.
