The Republican chair of the House Committee on Education and the Workforce has accused Northwestern University of a 'persistent failure in addressing antisemitism.'
the deal Northwestern President Michael Schill reached with protesters"I am proud of our community for achieving what has been a challenge across the country, a sustainable deescalated path forward," Schill said."They, despite having ample policies in place, turned the other cheek, stood idly by the taunting, the harassment, the intimidation of Jewish students," said Jewish United Fund Executive Vice President Jay Tcath.
The House committee is now demanding documents from all "disciplinary conduct cases relating to alleged anti-Semitic incidents" since October. The probe comes amid calls for Schill to step down and after high-profile resignation from his advisory committee on preventing antisemitism.
