HOUSE EDUCATION COMMITTEE TO LAUNCH PROBE INTO HARVARD, MIT AND PENN OVER
ANTISEMITISM

“We will use our full Congressional authority to hold these schools accountable
for their failure on the global stage,” Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) said.

student protesters' calls for “intifada” or “the genocide of Jews” violate their

The House Education and the Workforce Committee announced it will be
investigating Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the
University of Pennsylvania after their institutions’ leaders failed to
sufficiently condemn student protests calling for “Jewish genocide.”

“After this week’s pathetic and morally bankrupt testimony by university
presidents when answering my questions, the Education and Workforce Committee is
launching an official Congressional investigation with the full force of
subpoena power into Penn, MIT, & Harvard and others,” Rep. Elise Stefanik of New
York, the fourth-ranking House Republican, said in a statement.



“We will use our full Congressional authority to hold these schools accountable
for their failure on the global stage,” she said.



Stefanik, along with other Republicans on the House education committee, needled
Harvard President Claudine Gay, Penn President Liz Magill and MIT President
Sally Kornbluth at a more than five-hour hearing Tuesday over their response to
antisemitism on their campuses since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel. Stefanik
demanded the college leaders outline whether pro-Palestinian student protesters’
calls for “intifada” or “the genocide of Jews” violate their codes of conduct on
bullying or harassment.

The college presidents, some of whom have since apologized for their testimony,
refused to say “calling for Jewish genocide” is classified as bullying,
harassment or violates their school policy. They also said while they personally
did not agree with the rhetoric used by those students, they are committed to
preserving free speech on campus.

House Education and Workforce Chair Virginia Foxx on Thursday called the
presidents’ testimonies “unacceptable” and said committee members have “deep
concerns with their leadership” and “failure” to keep their campuses safe for
Jewish students. The committee’s formal investigation will probe the schools’
learning environments, policies and disciplinary procedures.

“This investigation will include substantial document requests, and the
Committee will not hesitate to utilize compulsory measures including subpoenas
if a full response is not immediately forthcoming,” Foxx said in a statement,
adding that the investigations will not be limited to just Harvard, MIT and
Penn.

“Other universities should expect investigations as well, as their litany of
similar failures has not gone unnoticed,” Foxx said.

Harvard and MIT, in response to the announcement, said they will work with the
committee and share information as lawmakers pursue their inquiry.

Harvard said its work to combat antisemitism “is advancing with the highest
commitment and attention from University leaders.” And MIT responded that it
“rejects antisemitism in all its forms” and “has stood up a campus-wide
initiative ‘Standing Against Hate.’”
