Federal judge sides against Jewish students who sued UPenn over antisemitism
- A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit filed in December 2023 against the University of Pennsylvania for mishandling antisemitism complaints on campus following Hamas' October 7 attack on Israel.
- The lawsuit arose amid rising tensions after the September 2023 Palestine Writes Literature Festival and accused Penn of permitting antisemitic incidents that created a hostile environment for Jewish students.
- Plaintiffs described missing classes, feeling unsafe, and concealing their Jewish identities amid campus protests, while the university responded by implementing measures such as forming a special committee and creating a group to advise on Jewish student experiences.

- The dismissal and prior U.S. Department of Education investigation drop highlight ongoing challenges addressing antisemitism at Penn, while leadership resigned amid the controversy, signaling institutional strain.
