Federal Judge Sides Against Jewish Students in Antisemitism Lawsuit Against UPenn
Federal judge dismisses lawsuit from Jewish students who sued the University of Pennsylvania over allegations of permitting, tolerating, or facilitating antisemitic incidents on campus.
A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed by Jewish students against the University of Pennsylvania, ruling that the Ivy League school did not 'permit, tolerate and/or facilitate' multiple antisemitic incidents on its campus as alleged in the case. The students claimed that UPenn failed to address severe antisemitism and other forms of bias on campus, but the judge found insufficient evidence to support their claims. The decision marks a significant victory for the university in a high-profile lawsuit that drew attention to issues of antisemitism on college campuses nationwide. The ruling rejects allegations of widespread institutional tolerance or complicity in perpetuating hate speech and discriminatory behavior.
