(The Free Press) Maya Sulkin - Harvard University released its long-overdue report on campus antisemitism exactly 10 days after Trump officials demanded to see it. The findings are disturbing. Nearly 60 percent of Jewish students at Harvard said they had experienced "discrimination, stereotyping, or negative bias on campus due to [their] views on current events," according to the 311-page report. The report said that 73 percent of Jewish students expressed discomfort sharing their political opinions, while 75 percent believed there was an "academic or professional penalty" for expressing their views at Harvard. The antisemitism report was based on what Harvard described as 50 "listening sessions" with a total of about 500 students, faculty, and staff, as well as 2,295 responses to an online survey, including 477 students, faculty, and staff who identified themselves as Jewish. Rabbi David Wolpe, who spent a year as a visiting professor at Harvard Divinity School, said that the antisemitism report details numerous "procedural fixes, but I'm not sure that it is possible to bring greater ideological harmony. I'm not sure that there's anything that the report could have done to do [achieve] that."
